Thank you,

Please explain why "Me gusta la de rojo" instead of el.
Los de manana seran mas fresco instead of Las......
Thank you
OK. I get it...I think! It is because the first clause expresses "emotion". Therefore it seems to be more a function of formality, a rule, not a matter of doubt. Because, I could be in fact happy that you travelled the world. Right? Or, is there another way to convey that "I am pleased that..." as fact and not use the subjunctive?
I appologize if I appear to be running in circles, and chasing my tail! I greatly appreciate your imput!
One of my answers is “No me apetece un bocadillo ni un burrito”.
According to the corrector, this answer is wrong.
I do not understand because in the explanations, there is a note which reads as follows:
“We sometimes omit the first “ni” and only use the “ni” in the second element of the sentence with a verb in negative”
1. I find it difficult to think in terms of the Imperfect subjunctive in examples which allude to an event in the future, e.g. "Ojalá nosotros viniésemos el año que viene"... Could we also say "Ojalá nosotros vengamos el año que viene"?
2. [A comment rather than a question]: I personally prefer the "-s-" option for constructing the Imperfect Subjunctive because there is less chance of confusing it with a future construction.
Nosotras fuimos responsables de ese proyecto.
We were responsible for this project.
Shouldn't this be "este proyecto?"
