Spanish language Q&A Forum

In Spanish the word Pachamama is their way of telling if it's a masculine or feminine word.

¡Qué ________ sois vosotras dos! How aggressive you two are!(HINT: "peleón" = masculine for aggressive)… why is the answer peleonas?

Why is ustedes used sometimes for singular subjects?

For example, Ustedes hacen una tarta de chocolate deliciosa. - is translated you make... It seems to me it should be: Usted hago una tarta de chocolate deliciosa.

What am I missing?

This left me somewhat down hearted.  I thought I was further along than my terrible score!  I guess I'll keep trying in the hopes I won't do this bad in the future.  :(

What is the difference between hay and tiene? does this make sense? "tienes un carro"?

Por favor, y veo que hay otras preguntas en este tema abajo, pero cómo deberíamos contestar de forma binario/a cuando ambas opciones son correctas?  Me molesta un poco que aparece que no se puede contestar a la pregunta y conseguir una respuesta correcta.  ¿No deberia una tercera alternativa - ´no importa´ o ´se depende en la región o el país´?

Wouldn't "Le gustaría explicarme..." be just as polite a question as "Podría explicarme..."?

Hi Can you please explain why - "I don't know if I will see him again" is not subjunctive, because it is all so uncertain.

Thanks

During the quizes, it translates it into english without asking me. I'd love to have the option of not having the english there as it takes away learning opportunities. Can I remove it? 

Is there a general rule in Spanish about when the definite article must be used and when it can be omitted? Eg why do azúcar, sodio, carbohidratos and lácteos need the definite article but not pescado, marisco, granos and huevos?
