Please could you tell me, how would you know which to use here-

‘Yo no he sido’- it wasn’t me 

Or

‘Yo no fui’- it wasn’t me

Thank you

Hello,

Re: Por la mañana desayuno a las nueve.

I noticed in the above that the structure of the sentence is quite different. 

Could it also be: Desayuno a las nueve por la mañana.

If yes/or no why and what would the difference in meaning.

Are there any rules/lessons concerning this?

Thank you. Nicole 

My understanding was that the accent falls on the penultimate syllable unless another syllable is accented. Given that where does the accent fall on “peinar”?  Is it not split into pe in ar?  

I got this correct in the quiz b/c I followed the hint but I don't understand the use of Imperfecto over Indefinido here if there is a specific time period in the past identified. Why trabajaba rather than trabajo? (I know the hint says "used to" but the question still stands.) Thank you!

Hello,

I have come across this: "haber hecho" as in: 

"After having done this... Después de haber hecho esto... "

and searched here for this structure and found this lesson, but not this form for "haber hecho" nor did I find anything  online except one site calling it an idiom.

I was wondering what part of speech "haber hecho" is, I can't find it as a tense and have not been able to find its grammatical term.  I don't think this is an "idiom".  Thanks for your help in claryfing this.

I recall that an earlier lesson mentioned the phrase "entre si" meaning "among themselves". The pronoun "si" seems to be the object version of the reflexive pronoun "se". When following the preposition "con", it also contracts to "consigo" just like "conmigo" and "contigo". The word "consigo" is also the same form as the first person present tense indicative mode of "conseguir". Maybe these discussions can be added to this lesson? Also, let me know if the pronoun "si" carries an accent or not. I think there is but I am not sure. Thank you.
