¿Qué te parece utilizar "podrías pedir" en lugar de "podrías preguntar" en la segunda pregunta de este ejercicio?
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?
When is de used after faltar?
I've read it's mostly a formal construction?
Is this lesson demonstrating the use of the PRESENT perfect subjunctive after "esperar" or the PAST perfect subjunctive? If the former, why is it referred to as "Pretérito Perfecto Subjuntivo", if we ordinarily translate the word "pretérito" as "past"?
OR
To phrase this question differently, when I use "haya", "hayas", "haya", etc. plus the past participle of a verb, am I using the Present perfect subjunctive, or the Past perfect subjunctive, or, in fact, is there another name, English and/or Spanish for this conjugation?
de las ciudades más bonitas de España
When would I use “en”?
You say it's more common to drop subject pronoun but this is not reflected in the answers
Contar bringing you to encontrar table is confusing me, as it shows yo encuentro instead of cuento which is the conjugation for contar
Hola. Could you please explain why, in the following question, "todo aquel que" is a wrong answer?
________ vinieron el año pasado han vuelto este año.All those who came last year returned this year.(HINT: It refers to people in general both male and female)
This lesson says «present tense is used to talk about the past event», which is fine, in English too it happens.
However, there is another lesson in C1, «simple future or conditional tenses are also used» to talk about the past event.
Can someone please explain when to use the present tense, and when to use simple future/conditional to talk about the past event? Or, in the same situation, present tense and future/conditional tense is inter-changeable??
