¡Hola!

Could you tell me if it is indicativo or subjuntivo that  follows the expression:

¿No es cierto que...?

Regards,

Alexander

 Imna, I'm curious to know, how frequently this structure is used in Spanish? Moreover, is it more common in Spain than say in Central and/or South America?

P.S. When I first read this lesson my thoughts were similar to Alan's. I too recognized that  there are similar 'past for present' verb structures in English.

"we were studing at the university of Salamanca during the 90'

While translating the verb study in spanish , I think we will use preterite indefinido (pretertio perfecto simple) because of time frame (during the 90) instead of preterite imperfecto. 

Please guide me on this. 

In the quiz I just took, I was supposed to translate "that famous film". I said "Esa película famosa" and was marked wrong. The answer was "aquella película famosa".

Given that the usage is somewhat subjective, and depends on how close the person feels to the object, shouldn't "esa" also be correct?

Edited to add: looks like I can't delete the question. I just went back to my quiz results, and it looks like there's a hint that I missed, that the speaker was feeling distant from the film. So that explains it.

Why isn't this en EL verano?

You guys have the "correct" answer as bebe poco. Bebe poco means drink a little. Don't drink a lot would be "no bebas mucho" ...I'm staring to wonder why I'm paying so much money for a Latin Americna course that has consistent errors both in Spanish and English and also teaches variations that are not Latin American Spanish. 

I'm confused by the use of third person (instead of first person) of haber. Why is the sentence not "Ultimamente, me he dado por flirtear con mi jefe"?

Why can't I use Ustedes - 'ven'
