Spanish language Q&A Forum

In the reading, the sentence "A que no te lo imaginabas?" is translated as "Can you imagine?".  It seems like that translation is missing some nuance.  After reading through the corresponding lesson, it seems like more accurate translation would be "I bet you wouldn't have imagined it!".  Would this be accurate, or am I missing something?

Hello, I don't understand, why "fascinar" always has to be conjugated in the 3rd person singular or plural, as you have written in the lesson. If I want to say instead of "I am fascinated by Hollywood actresses." the sentence "I am fascinated by you.", I think I have to say "Me fascinas tú." I think, that it's only always in the 3rd person, if it is followed by a verb. And it should be the same with gustar and encantar. Or did I understand something wrong?

Así como en los deportes, donde necesitamos practicar hasta obtenermos mejores resultados, también es así con los idiomas. Devemos practicar hasta alcanzarnos nuestro objetivo que es hablar, charlar, comunicarnos. Así como en los deportes, debemos siempre mantener nuestra motivácion hacia nuestro objetivo.

why is it quien not que

Why is this sentence: Yo he llegado pronto a trabajar esta tarde? Translated as “I arrived early to work this morning” and not “I have arrived early to work this morning”? The present perfect tense includes the use of have correct?

Why is con used in this sentence: yo sueno con vivir in Cuba? Co means with right?

Is there a way to put the list of A1 stem changing AR verbs e to ie in the present tense into my notebook?

Could a correct translation option also be "En la madrugada"?

customer: quiero un café.

me: qué tamaño?

customer: pequeño por favor.

(the coffee shop in question has creative names for its sizes, so I often hold up a cup to clarify. :p)

me, holding up a small cup: cómo esto?

my understanding is that since the phrase "like this?" doesn't contain a noun after "this," then "esto" should be used. but technically we've been talking about "el tamaño," so is "este" correct instead? I've never been able to find something explain this exact scenario. 😅
