Can someone please tell me the difference between salió and fue when saying something like "it went well".

When putting this in Spanish dict it gives numerous examples but no indication as to which to use when and why. ? 

Thank you

Hola, 

si no me equivoco debería escribir "suspense" en lugar de "supense" tal y como está escrito en el texto.

Gracias,

Alice

¿Por qué usa "de" con la frase tomar de postre en lugar de "como" o "por"?

Hi. Was this marked wrong because I'm studying LA Spanish and chose "hubiesen aprobado" (used more in Spain) instead of "hubieran aprobado"? Thanks!

Ojalá ustedes  ________ el examen final. I wish you had passed the final exam.(HINT: Use "ustedes" form to conjugate "aprobar" in El Pretérito Pluscuamperfecto de Subjuntivo)

Spanish names for:

Inside or female threads 

male or outside threads

In this quiz question - you cannot hear the "el" being pronounced. But the answer is correct with "el"

Since The main differences between ser and estar include that ser is used for permanent qualities, like your name, your place of origin, and your physical appearance, while estar is used to talk about temporary situations, such as how you’re feeling right now or your location.

So why is SER used in this sentence:  Tú eras muy bueno.  - the person that you are talking to is not always good so it is not a permant state.

Ditto in the following sentence.  You are not always rich so why use SER in the following:  Vosotros erais ricos.

Nope.  No real instruction can convey with clarity how to use the different past tenses in Spanish.  This is just another attempt here to try and make it "clear."  it is not.  

Spanish fluency was a goal of mine, but really not so much any longer.  Basically, because no one can really "instruct" on how to learn the language.  The only way to learn it is to revert to "infancy" and just hear it spoken.  So, move to a Spanish-speaking country or region and pick up what you can.  Most disheartening thing I have ever attempted to do is learning Spanish.
