En verano en Madrid hay una oferta grande de ocio. In summer, there are a lot of leisure activities available in Madrid.

Vuestros papeles no eran fáciles de entender, pero los nuestros sí
Your papers were not easy to understand, but ours were.
I have a question about reflexive verbs. In general I understand the concept, and I in general I know when to recognize the verbs. What I have trouble with is knowing when to use them in a sentence. For example take these two sentence:
I walk in the morning. Camino por la mañana.
I bathe in the morning. Me baño por la mañana.
Now I use the Google translate app and one of these sentences uses a reflexive verb and its pronoun and one does not. I don't understand the difference. I understand "I bathe myself in the morning" is how the translation would be from Spanish to English. But why does "I walk in the morning" not translate as "I walk myself in the morning". After all I'm not walking the dog or walking somebody else, I'm walking myself. Or is this just a matter of the Google translate app being incorrect??
The question is
Será mejor que ________ sin apostar dinero.
It's better to play without gambling money.
HINT: Conjugate "jugar" in El Presente Subjuntivo.
The answer given is “juguemos”. Why not “juguéis” , “jueguen” , “juegue” or “juegues”?
Why is this the correct answer: Usted esta en la lista and not Usted estas en la lista?
It seems like many of these questions can be interpreted either way. In English, the two are often interchangeable in a given sentence depending what the speaker wishes to say. Although we have many things in common... OR Even if we have many things in common...
How do we know which translation to provide--subjunctive or indicative?
