Why is this sentence: Yo he llegado pronto a trabajar esta tarde? Translated as “I arrived early to work this morning” and not “I have arrived early to work this morning”? The present perfect tense includes the use of have correct?
I put this lesson in my notebook, it wont let me retake the quiz
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

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.
Hello!
Why use subjuntivo vs indicativo in this sentence?
Una vez que ustedes firmen, no hay marcha atrás.
I can’t imagine using subjuntivo, or maybe I’m just thinking of it as a real factual warning vs something hypothetical that I can’t imagine in real situation.
in the phrase Compré estas joyas porque quiero regalarselas a mi esposa. Why do you need the se?
Why is usted placed in the middle of the verbal structure? After estar but before the gerund.
The structure seems clear: a las dos horas de = within two hours of; a los tres años de = within three years of, etc. The question was this, though:
________, tuve que llamar al médico.
Within 2 hours of being sick, I had to call the doctor.My answer was: a las dos horas de vomitar, whereas the correct answer was a las dos horas vomitar. ¿Por qué?In a sentence like:
"I believe that Juan does NOT have the book.", which is correct?:
Creo que Juan no tiene el libro. o
Creo que Juan no tenga el libro.
that is usually taken with a mobile phone
I put 'que suele se hace con un teléfono móvil' which was corrected to
'que habitualmente se hace con un teléfono móvil' or 'que suele sacarse con un teléfono móvil'
Is my answer gramatically incorrect or is it a matter of style?
Gracias
