El smoking es tan elegante como el frac.

I find this example strange, can you check the audio to ensure it matches? I am having trouble with "smoking" how would that be pronounced? Ess-mo-keng? I guess this word is just throwing me for a loop

Let's see when you find a good job! -- I think that this could be answered with either form of cuando/cuándo depending on context:

Let's see (at what point in time - cuádo) you find a good job.

Let's see (when (if) you find a good job - cuando)

I chose the latter and was marked wrong.

Hola,

If agua is a feminine noun that takes 'el" in the singular, would it be correct to say ...... para usarlo? I tried it and was marked wrong, so can you help me understand it.

Many thanks

John

Why are we using pues instead of porque in the first sentence to say because?

 I am afraid I didn't meet , as yet,  this expression in English and thus, I don't know its meaning. So, can't say if it is "por" or "para" ..

(probably  the Spanish sentence has a well defined meaning but, with my poor Spanish, can't say what is this meaning..

Could you explain how 'hago' comes to mean 'I am walking.' please.  How would one know?  Is this an idiomatic usage?
