I´m wondering how do you know when to use "conocí" or "conocía"?
Un bolígrafo también es una pluma. Si?
When do I use imperfect or preterito with past progressive
Hola
Cual es correcta?
1. No fuimos nosotras quienes hicimos caer a esa mujer.
2. No fuimos nosotras quienes hicieron caer a esa mujer.
Cual es la regla? #3 con 1 plural y #4 con 3 plural.
3. Somos nosotros quienes podemos hacer la diferencia.
We're the ones who can make a difference.
4. Seamos nosotros quienes se hagan ricos con esto.
So it might as well be us who get rich on it.
Gracias de antemano

For "I was shaking", is "estaba temblando" a valid answer? If so, is there a difference between "estaba temblando" and "temblaba"? Is there a time where it's more appropriate to use one over the other? thanks in advance!
When used as a compound adjective, as it is here, "last minute" requires a hyphen between "last" and "minute," thus: "last-minute." When it's inside a prepositional phrase, however, as in "he found offers at the last minute," no hyphen is necessary.
Hola,
I have a particular interest in art, so I enjoyed doing this exercise. Yet, I have to agree with David that this lesson was possibly more challenging than the AI level.
I needed to listen to the measurements several times because I was unfamiliar with the use of "veinte coma dos" for example. (Although, I should have guessed, since this is similar to the French use of a comma instead of a decimal point.) After the first measurement, I was able to understand the second one. A good learning experience for me. I am coming back to Spanish, and have a lot to review and much more to learn for the first time.
May I suggest that there is a link to a lesson about numbers with decimals?
Gracias y Saludos
Hi, I'm really struggling with this one, and there are only two possibilities! It's "Aquí tienes 20 euro por si……. dinero para un taxi.", with the options of necesitas and necesitaras. The questions says that the speaker thinks there's a low probability of the money being needed. The correct answer is the imperfect subjunctive, necesitaras. I suppose that it has to be that because the present indicative is not permissible in this structure, but I don’t know why.
Thanks in advance,
Dave
