Hola

I'm confused as to why this lesson exists. Doesn't this one Using se debe/n and se puede/n + infinitive to say you must / you can (passive) already cover it??

thanks

Hi, 

I didn't get a reply to my question below, wondering if it fell through the cracks...

Thank you, Niocle

no entiendo por que, en español , necesita usar "hay" por una oración: "Hay niebla" --pero, no puedo usa la misma estructura para la expresión -- "Esta soleando". Lo se que el ley es usar "hay" siguen por un noun y usa "hay" después un adjetivo  --pero no es "niebla" un adjetivo también? verdad?

Are the other constructios in the green box synonymous with por lo tanto/así que?

Why is not puede in Subjuntivo, since it follows por lo tanto?

Hi, I have a question concerning this text: 

"at the beginning of the 17th century,"

a comienzos del siglo XVII, 

why is the plural used here and not the singular? 

What rules/lesson pertain to this?

Thank you, NIcole

Re: "because I find that it's an interesting instrument."

Kwizbot  porque me parece un instrumento interesante.

You         porque me parece “que es” un instrumento interesante

Google translates the sentence in question: "Because I think it's an interesting instrument"

leaving out the "that" in the original text. 

       Would it be incorrect to have the “que es” here?  How do I find out how to work the  “magic” of

       sentence structure.  Thank you. Nicole

Hello,

Re: Por la mañana desayuno a las nueve.

I noticed in the above that the structure of the sentence is quite different. 

Could it also be: Desayuno a las nueve por la mañana.

If yes/or no why and what would the difference in meaning.

Are there any rules/lessons concerning this?

Thank you. Nicole 

Interesting lesson!

I noticed a simple memory trick:  use dónde with verbs, donde with nouns.

That is:

   [verb] + dónde

   [noun] + donde

Cheers!

I would like to ask if this construction is often used in Spanish. Is it in some cases interchangeable with cuando? Can it also mean immediately after? E.g. : al regresar del museo me tumbé en la cama? Al plus infinitive seems to be a very convenient construction.
