Spanish language Q&A Forum

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

The examples all list a couple actions that are being requested or suggested.  Would it be just as normal to use it when there is just a single action being requested?  Like "Pones los papeles sobre la mesa" would sound as normal as a command as "Pon los papeles sobre la mesa"?  As a non-native speaker, if I talked that way would people think I don't know the imperative?

Hi, I also have a similar doubt. We are using sere in first example ( When I am older, I will be a doctor) i.e simple future but we are using vayan (subjunctive) in this statement:  Tendrán mucho frío cuando vayan a Escocia el próximo diciembre.

Why are we using vayan instead of iran (simple future) here like in first example?

Please help thank you!

Hello Kwiziq team, 

In this translation exercise, would using the verb llevar in the following sentence make sense? ''Tercero, llevaré menos tiempo en mi teléfono.'' instead of ''Tercero, pasaré menos tiempo en mi teléfono'' 

Many thanks

How do you know which infinitives require the preposition A to link the verbs?

 To me it seemed that the the word "da" didn't quite come through even when I replayed it.

I was doing one of the writing exercises and the sentence given was, "I decided to wait and see if a car passed by to call for help." I figured the translation of "passed by" would be "pasera" (past subjunctive), but the answer given was "pasaba." Why wouldn't we need to use subjunctive here since it's uncertain whether a car will actually pass by?
