Hi, being back after a few months, I noticed that all example sentences use indicative mood, while the one in the lessons was in subjunctive:
De habérmelo explicado antes, no me hubiera enfadado tanto.
Why isn't this conditional, ... no me habría enfadado tanto?
¿Se puede usar solo "cuales" como pronombre relativo? ¿O se necessita siempre usa con el/la/los?
You answer 'los doctores PREFIERE but the plural form is PREFIEREN, which is an option
Can you help please
He imprimido nuestras fotografías del viaje, ¿quieres ver ________?I have printed the pictures of our trip, do you want to see some?(HINT: Choose the correct singular form.)
I don't understand why alguna is correct here and not algunas. I get that alguna can mean 'the odd one' but this test question doesn't look like the odd one, and it almost exactly matches an example in the quick lesson, where the correct form is given as algunas.

when you ask a question like “do you offer discounts” there is no indication you are asking one or many people. so do i assume “you” will always be more than one person?
How would you say the noun "width" in spanish? I have seen the word "ancho" used as a noun for width but I thought that the word "ancho" was a adjective. Can "ancho" be used as both a noun and an adjective? I have also seen the word "anchura" used as "width", but it seems to be less common?
Why was there no translation for "Venir a cuento" (To come to the point) , "San Ginés" (Saint Genesius), "El asilo del libro" (the Book Asylum) and "Tusitala? Do the choice of names for the librerías have no relevance? It might be of value to know why such names were chosen. Ej:
¿Qué significa Tusitala?, La Librería dice, "nos preguntáis con frecuencia: Tusitala significa "el que cuenta historias", es el nombre que los nativos de Samoa daban a Robert Louis Stevenson cuando se reunían con él para escuchar sus cuentos.
En la librería Tusitala siempre dedicamos un espacio al escritor escocés, que ahora se amplía con 'Olalla', novela ambientada en España y que ha recuperado Ediciones Invisibles. Una joya de la narrativa que os recomendamos encarecidamente."
Interesting, no?
