I was reading this sentence:
The cat walks out the window.
El gato sale a la calle por la ventana.
It seemed to me that this means more like: The cat go out through
the window. So I put it into Google, which gave:
Google: The cat goes outside through the window. Then tried another site:
Reverso: The cat walks out the window.and they translated it as: The cat walks out the window.
I would appreciate getting a clarification on this. Thank you.
The lesson says:

For example: Me gustan bailar y cantar.

I think I understand the answer, but the example seems confusing since in this case gustar is being used with multiple verbs
I don't understand why the English translations of the historical present are not in the English historical present. For example, "Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez dies in 2013." would be perfectly acceptable in a historical context. To use the past tense in the English examples is just confusing, since the point of the lesson is that the same tense exists in Spanish as well.
Why was the English translation of the Spanish question misleading?.. It should have been written as.... The lady waited for the doctor for 40 minutes...
Hello, I use several sources to learn Spanish, and the other ones suggest using Estar for relationships with husband and wife, is there any reason why they would be incorrect? Thanks
For the question "No hay muchas casas ________ el monte." meaning, there aren't many houses on the mountain, why wouldn't sobre work? If I wanted to say "there aren't many books on the table", wouldn't sobre be acceptable in that instance?
Why can't I use Ustedes - 'ven'
¡Hola!
Could you tell me if it is indicativo or subjuntivo that follows the expression:
¿No es cierto que...?
