clarification

I believe that a couple of the examples used are commands (Imperatives), not subjunctive. Please clarify. Thanks

example:

¿Dígame? - Hola, ¿puedo hablar con Juan?[on the phone, lit: speak to me] Hello? - Hello, may I speak to Juan?

No, es broma.

¡Hola a todos!

Thank you for this helpful exercise! :-)

I'm curios how to translate "No, es broma"? I mean, google tells me it means; "I'm kidding", and I understand that from the context - but is there maybe a comparison to an English equivalent of this expression? :-)

¡Muchas gracias!

Comparative vs superlative; more vs the most

There was a sentence in the lesson:

Dime cuál te gusta más.

Tell me which one you like the most.

Wouldn't this translate to

Tell me which one you like more. ?

How would you say the correct sentences in Spanish to translate more and the most?

Also, why do speakers of Spanish have a difficult time when learning the comparative and superlative forms in English? It's like they don't realize they exist in Spanish too.

Hi - why is Ser used for "We may be the only ones in the restaurant?". I would have thought Estar - estamos en el restaurante?

'A vosotros' and 'os'Hi there,

I had the question pasted below, but how is it that it can be both vosotros and os in the same sentence? And why isn't the gusta plural?
Thanks!
A vosotros no ________ este documental, ¿verdad?You [plural] don't like this documentary, do you?

Answer: os gusta

Adonde vas Manel? correct?

You wrote: "With verbs that imply movement we can use all the forms:", with example ¿Adónde vas Manuel?

Does than mean that "Adonde vas Manuel" and "donde vas Manuel" are correct? The examples only have the forms adónde and dónde

Form of the definite and indefinite articles before a (feminine singlular) noun that starts with a vowel.

When a feminine singular noun starts with a vowel (or vowel sound) do we still use 'la' (or 'una'), or is there a rule similar to that in English for a / an?
