A great poem in Spanish which should be enjoyed in Spanish. While the translation gives lots of new vocab (with poetic license) the true enjoyment is in the flow of Spanish and not in the clumsiness of an English translation!

But the concept of the subjunctive is different in English and is little understood by most anglófonos. For example:

Te di el dinero para que me dejaras en paz. - In the English subjunctive form "I gave you the money so that you should leave me alone."

Whereas to use "would leave me alone" should be in the conditional: "Te di el dinero para que me dejarías en paz.

Or are the two subjunctive concepts interpreted "differently" ?

Does “Que me ensucias la camisa” literally mean You will dirty me, (specifically my) the t-shirt, where using the article la acts as a stand-in for a possessive adjective? 

te recomendaría que exploraras las ruinas en la selva y disfrutar la naturaleza 

In this phrase why isn't the second verb following recomendar also a subjunctive?

Also I'm not sure why we would say tesoro español o tesoro gótico but tesoro maya is invariable

Gracias

Can you explain how que su acts as a replacement for cuyo? I tried looking this up online but was unable to find anything. 

It seems Juntos can either be placed directly within the verbal phrase, almost, like an adverb:

 ir + juntos + a 

or 

follow the phrase, ir al cine juntos.
