Why "cada uno de april" versus "cada primero de abril"? How common is either form?
Does querer que trigger the subjunctive if it's something you're wishing for yourself?
The english text referred to great legends, so I chose gran, but it was marked incorrect. That seems to conflict with the answers given in the community.
What is wrong with "Teníamos que usar cascos de protección" . I have heard many people use "usar" for to wear.
The lesson seems clear on when to use the article in a date, but questions don't make it clear which is called for. That needs to be cleaned up...........
The rule seems to be inconsistent.
It should be......how many people are there in Barcelona........I am English, this sounds more natural to me
Thank you Silvia,
In "La vida de Eva (B1)" gapfill test we have:
"Eva siempre ha sido una persona que nunca toma decisiones por dinero o por conveniencia. Su familia la quiere mucho y, para ser sinceros, ha hecho muchos sacrificios ______ sus hijos."
The hint for the gap is:
"she has made many sacrifices for her children."
the accepted answer is "por"; "para" is marked wrong.
The explanation given for this is:
"Lesson: Using por (not para) to express the originating cause or reason"
Could you please help me to see
why "for" is interpreted here as indicating the "cause" and not the "recipient"?
What are the verb endings in this tense? Although it is noted that the verb stem is the same as in the future tense, I do not find a list of the verb endings anywhere.
