Why is le used? Isn't the same pronoun used as in conocer (lo)?

If I understand this right, this conditional tense can be used both for what was possible/probable in the past as well as for what could be/would be for the future?

I am used to seeing this tense in sentences such as

¿Podría llamarme mañana?

Could you call me tomorrow?/ Would you be able to call me tomorrow?

Hola a todos

I just found this sentence on Kwiziq:

'He estado de viaje y me ha encantado todo'

So, with de I guess roughly this means 'I have been doing travelling'

But please can someone explain...

1) The differences between using 'he estado de viajar' vs 'he estado viajando'?

2) And can we use 'he estado de +infinitive' with all verbs?

Saludos

Why is the answer to " When she opens her present, she often gets perfume.

Why is the answer "abre" and not " abra"?

The subjunctive is used in "Cuando tus hermanos lleguen será muy tarde." even though there is no intention to "make something happen" in the future.  Maybe that description should be added to, to make it more clear that future things that will happen anyway (there is no intent to change things) also trigger the subjunctive after "cuando"?

Hi,

I have mentioned before the speed at which some of the example sentences are said and I wondered whether it is structured.

I presume that this lesson is solely for A1 level students.  If so, there is a sentencs that is so fast that I cannot hear all of the syllables.  

In "Andrea juega al ..." I find it difficult to hear all of the syllables near the start of the sentence.

Could it be that the sentences are slowed for the lower levels and speeded up as we become more adept at listening to Spanish?

Sorry to complain but I find the course suits my needs and this tweak would make it even better for me.  I don't know whether others would agree.

Many thanks.

Colin
