Spanish language Q&A Forum

I was just wondering if there are any new languages planned for release in the near future. I have read (I think it was on Twitter) that German, Italian and Portuguese were potentially in the works.

If so, that would be excellent news, as KwizIQ is definitely one of the best language resources out there!!

Kwizbot           Llamamos inmediatamente a la recepción/ a recepción

You                  Inmediamente llamabamos a la receptión

(Hightlights are for my info in keeping track of my mistakes and corrections)

I was wondering if you could refer me to a lesson that goes over placement of adverbs - I looked at the lesson re this section, but it didn’t mention placement, just how to form it. And also how to know when to use the article and to not use in "a la recepción/ a recepción"

Thank you.

When I ask a question I would like to see if other people have asked a similar question, but when I try to search for my question, no search is done; I am only allowed to ask a new question.

Gracias, Jaime 

How come it is tiene instead of tienes ?  I'm thinking plural...being it says:  cosas bonitas...  Thank you!

Gracias por compartir esta canción. Me gusta mucho.

¿Porque usamos la expresión, "no esté aquí", en lugar de "no estoy aquí"? 

¿Qué significa la palabra, "esté", exactamente?

¿es lo tiempo presente subjuntivo?   después de más investigación, Yo pienso que significa, "would not be here". 

Gracias, Jaime

Hi, I have a couple of questions on this exercise:

1) The average temperature was 16 degrees

Kwizbot     La temperatura media fue de 16 grados
You   La temperatura media fue de 16 grados.

You could also say: La temperatura media era de 16 grados 

Hi, I don’t understand how either “fue” and “era” can be used here.

Can you please explain.  Thank you. Nicole

Also would my sentence be acceptable? If not, why not?

2) and it was very nice to stroll down the street.

Kwizbot           y fue muy agradable pasear por la calle.
You                  y fue muy agradable ir de paseo a través la calle.

Is my answer acceptable? and if not, why not?

Thank you.

Hola,

Could you provide a few (more) examples of the use of the verb 'to cost' something?

What sorts of things does it cover (or could you use it for everything)?

Everything fluctuates in price, so are we talking about things that we concentrate our daily lives on (sometimes obsess about!): stock market/ currency, houses, petrol, food, drink? Things we think of as fluctuating day to day?

Gracias,
