Spanish language Q&A Forum

hi, in the case of saying ´en algún libro´etc where we mean some book, a book non specifically, can we use ´un´ in place of ´algún´?

I wish there were a lesson explaining how the use of articles in Spanish differs from English.  For example, "he has a good heart" is "tiene buen corazon" not "un buen corazon".  Another example, "I will be in the first row" is "estare en primera fila" and not "en la primera fila".

This is stupid. The examples of the party are both the same. No action is being completed or not being completed. It is just a statement of existence that there "was" food at the party. So we need a better explanation for why in one case it would be "habia" and in one case it would be "hubo."

¡ejercicio estupendo! are there any more of those tests/reading/listening exercises?

The "this may be closer to latin amercian spanish" warning came up in this exercise, for a part of the text given as a hint!

"A las cuatro, tengo entrenamiento de fútbol."

Puedes hablar y Dejan usar in the same sentence ?  Te and Ellos?

I've listened over and over and can't hear the Y in "José y María". 

Is it not there or am I just unable to hear it? 

Hi, why is preterite used here instead of the imperfect? The preterite implies that Ustedes no longer exist.

When the noun ends in a consonant or the vowel -e  we tend to keep the whole word and add -cillo, -cilla, -cillos, -cillas. Hola, the lesson on the suffix cito etc says it applies to words ending in e. So which would be the correct suffix to add to Quijote? cito or cillo? Muchas gracias, Shirley. 

I was hoping to learn Mexican pronunciation  but you use the Spanish pronunciation using the th sound instead of c sound.  Are the listening exercises also going to use the vosotros  grammar forms or Mexican grammar?
