Como es la cultura en Paraguay y porque es importante para ellos? Que haces para expresarlo? 

I asked kwiziq to search “ Meter vs Poner” to teach me the nuances between both meaning to put. It failed. Why?

For this question:

"El guiso solo necesita una pizca de sal. No pongas ____ "

I couldn't decide whether it should be "tantas" or "tanta" because it wasn't clear to me at all whether the pronoun is referring to "una pizca" or "sal". If I recall correctly I put "tantas", attempting to agree with "una pizca" but it was the wrong answer. Is it possible that both might be acceptable in real world speech because of that ambiguity, or am I missing some clear difference?

(e.g. in English "This stew only needs one pinch of salt. Don't put too many" would sound a bit wrong, but technically would be correct for the same reason, in my opinion. Of course you'd usually hear "This stew only needs *a* pinch of salt. Don't put too much.". While salt is an uncountable noun (in most contexts), "pinch" is, of course, not!)

Also, when the subjunctive is used is it always part of the cuando clause?

I wonder why a "to" is shown after "to tend." Since the examples have an infinitive after a conjugated "tend," it seems the extra "to" is superfluous.

Is there a subtle difference implied between "asi" and "así que", or is the difference not so subtle?

Hi, Kwiziq has dropped a lesson when to use pretérito indefinido vs  simple perfect into my lesson plan which is headed ‘for South American learners’.  It identifies me correctly as learning Iberian Spanish. I don’t want to get confused with SA grammar. How can I remove it please?

I used all CAPS for the title of the picture as the hint suggested... I didn't realize it was only for capitalizing the first letter of each word. Could be clearer. Thanks.

Can you explain why the cake is called 'tarta' in the second and third sentences, but 'pastel' in the fourth?
