"¿________ semana te vas de vacaciones?"

In the question "¿________ semana te vas de vacaciones?" the answer was Que, but since a specific week was being requested, wouldn't the answer actually be Cual? (sorry it seems I cannot make letters with an accent in the Q&A Forum fields)

interrogative versus statement

If the interrogative needs cuándo then: ¿Dice la pantalla cuándo aterriza el avión?

But for a non-question: La pantalla no dice cuando aterriza el avión.

yet the Kwiziq answer is: La pantalla no dice cuándo aterriza el avión.

HELP? por favor . . .

Observation... unos unas What is countable?

All the examples are in present tense.

How do we know if something is countable. I don't think we can count stars.

And we can count money. trees... I can count in my yard but not in forest.

lo mío son los pequeños placeres

Why is "lo mío" singular? Why not "los míos son" or "lo mío es"?

Poor thing taking it on and nobody helped!

Wow! Question. How does: "en qué momento se me habrá ocurrido" come to mean: "I'm wondering why I thought this was a good idea"?

Is it a standard phrase for "Me pregunto por qué pensé que era una buena idea?"

Would "en qué momento pensé que era una buena idea?"work?

How would we express wish and feeling about events in the past?

For example,

"It bothers us that you never studied Spanish", or

"I'm so happy that your boyfriend went to Harvard".

"I wish we had met sooner"

Would we use the imperfect subjunctive?

Thanks.

Suggestion: change the lesson linked to the question. Los nietos ________ aquí porque el salón está sucio. The grandchildren must have been here because the living room is dirty.(HINT: Conjugate "estar" in El Futuro Perfecto.)A suggestion, link this question with the lesson “Using the spanish future perfect to talk about the past”, rather than “Conjugate regular verbs in the perfect future.” Reason: “Must have been” refers to the past. The examples in “Conj. reg verbs in fut. perf.” all refer to the future. Thanks, Shirley.

"Cambio mi suegra por un sapo" ??

Eso encontré en mis kwizzes. Pues, ya sé que necesito usar "por" y no "para", pero tengo otras preguntas más importantes... 🤣 ¿Eso es un dicho o un refrán de hispanohablantes, o simplemente kwizbot haciendo un chiste?
