Hola. Creo que los ejemplos en esta lista son del pretérito y no del presente de subjuntivo.
Gracias.
Sorry, I understand my mistake now - please disregard.
Hi Inma
Am I right to assume that these essentially translate into English as the same thing? Otherwise, could you explain any other differences in meaning that might exist?
1) Su avión ha debido retrasarse
2) Su avión debe haberse retrasado
AND that adding 'de' also makes no difference to the meaning (other than maybe 'strengthening' the assumption as we learned about here: Spanish modal verb Deber versus Deber de (obligation and assumption))?
Saludos
Why did Kwiziq insert "una" in front of "astrónoma" but not in front of "miembro"?

I should’ve said “Podía ver.. vs veía, do they mean the same thing. Gracias, Shirley.
In a quiz question (20% is a small number), why is the answer el "20 %" not accepted? The lesson seems to suggest that either that or El '20 por ciento" should be ok. Thanks.
I don't understand why Indefinido is used in the example; "Nos gustamos desde el primer momento." It has a definite starting point, but the sentence implies a continuing action. In this case could Imperfecto also be used correctly?
I'm confused by the title of this article: "personal "a" verbs". Isn't the issue whether the direct object is a person or not, rather than the verb used? In addition to the verbs mentioned, isn't the same true of all the verbs on https://progress.lawlessspanish.com/learn/theme/830919 as well as necesitar, golpear, ... indeed any transitive verb?
I understood from the lesson on 'Whoever / all those who' that todos aquellos was always followed by a subjunctive.
...una muñeca querida en los corazones de todos aquellos que han tenido el placer de disfrutar... shouldn't this be hayan tenido el placer?
Gracias
This very lesson says that 'normalmente' signals the simple present, the so-called correct answer was the progressive.
