When is "cómo es" used? I keep seeing it as a correct option but what scenario it would be used in hasn't been specified.

The rule seems to be inconsistent. 

I don't see anywhere in the lesson that the "que" can be omitted. I don't think the sentence looks right either. 

The title of the page is:   forming el Imperfecto Progresivo con estar + gerundio  but the next paragraph jumps to the Pretérito Imperfecto:

“In the case of El Pretérito Imperfecto, this is how the progressive tense is formed.”

Is the pretérito imperfecto and the imperfecto progresivo the same tense, just a different name?

Thank you.

Hi, I have a question about the grammar of this sentence. I apologize it doesn’t have to do with “aquella.” Just wondering  about the use of “estaba.” Why not “estuvo?” For something to be broken is that not permanent? Or is it because it was fixed that it “used to be broken”? Am I over thinking this?

Does querer que trigger the subjunctive if it's something you're wishing for yourself? 

Hola Inma,

I don't understand the use of subjunctive here:  "Nunca hubiera pensado". Why not había pensado ?

Un saludo coldial
