Why is "You will see..." translated to a command (Mira que...) whereas "Your will forget..." is translated to the future (olvidarás)? The structures appear to be the same.

Should be on second syllable, no?

Hi,

Hope all are well and keeping well. 

I was wondering if you could help me to know how to determine when to write “qu” or “c”. 

Also, one of the hints included the word “spa” which had nothing to do with the text, and there wasn’t any mention of spa in that section (or anywhere else).  

Thank you for your attention.

I can say "I like white wine" and also "I prefer white wine".  Is it the same in Spanish?  - I know there's a difference (i.e. comparison vs general) and wondering how similar it is to the English usage (which can be subtle at times).

We would be wrong with you.

I would say "We would be wrong about you."

Does it have to be a specific duration with desde hace? Or could we say:

No visito desde hace mucho tiempo un pueblo tan bonito que este

And would it be incorrect to say:

Ha pasado mucho tiempo desde que visité un pueblo tan bonito que este.

...or is it just another way of saying the same thing?

Good morning Kwiziq team, 

As always I love your content. 

I’m not sure if this is covered in another lesson, if so feel free to direct me to it! Just sometimes struggle to remember when the verb in the yo form of the preterite indefinido for “ir” verbs end in í or e. 

I think it’s verbs like introducir that threw me off; is it because that one is an irregular verb ending in ducir? Just that you highlight the consonant change, but not that the ending changes too? 

Kind regards, 

Fran 

Hola,

In a show a character says "La muerte de mi hija no iba ser una excepción."  Why is it "no iba ser" rather than "no iba a ser"?  What is the grammatical rule here?

Muchas gracias!

Can you please tell me when to use 'eso' and when to use 'ese' or 'esa'.  In the sentence, 'Eso es un paraguas.' why 'eso' and not 'ese'?  And, is the usage of 'esto' similar?

Thank you.

Colin

Hello,

Please would you point me to a lesson or explain briefly why "voy a comprarme" is used rather than "voy a comprar".  Is it just clarification that I'm buying a house for me, rather than some random person, or is it absolutely needed?

Many Thanks
