Spanish language Q&A Forum

"In Spanish, nouns can be preceded by numbers."     Can the numbers be other places?

If they can would you give examples.    Sounds like all the numbers are   invariable  if below 199.    200 and above agree with noun that it is in front of.    And the agreement goes with the hundreds.

100 when  it becomes 101 the word for 100 becomes Ciento    Is it only ciento when working with nouns.    Say in general counting ciento also.    People are talking about a cienta.   Maybe does not happen.

Do we have link to learn about numbers?

Es la primera vez que he visto el verbo versar. Entiendo el sentido en este contexto. ¿Mi cuestión se trata de cómo habitual es?

Why is "pasar" shown to mean "have" when English speakers just as often say "to spend?" Wouldn't it be truer to the Spanish to say it means "to spend?" Also, that will help me learn the actual meaning of "pasar." To say it means "have" I would think may sow some confusion. 

Why "cada uno de april" versus "cada primero de abril"? How common is either form?

How can I get private Spanish lessons?

In this quiz question (Elia no va a empezar el curso este año ________ va a tener un año sabático.) it seems to me that "pero" works just as well as "sino que". It doesn't seem to be a clear distinction between pero and sino que - it seems they both can be right. In one sense, you are adding a new idea/action of taking a sabbatical & should use pero, or you can think of the sabbatical as a substitution for beginning classes and use sino que. Why is sino que "correct" and pero ïncorrect"? 

According to my dictionary, the word órgano is masculine, but the text has "una órgano."

Hello, excellent lesson.  We know that "un/una" changes with gender.  Is this true of every number that ends with "un/una"?

Ex:

Vientiún estudiantes, veintiuna camas

Ciento un aguacates, ciento una botellas

Thanks.

In the sentence ¿Deben invitar a Luis a cenar? I am wondering why the sentence does not read ¿Deben invitar a Luis cenar?

What is the grammar rule that requires the second 'a'?

Thanks!
