There seems to be a lot of doubt in this sentence. What would trigger only the subjunctive?
Thank you. K
A shorter sentence "mucha gente come uvas juntas" uses juntas!
Both la gente y las personas are feminine nouns. Why juntos (masculine)?
A great article which I thoroughly enjoyed and will watch and read a few more times. Why was the word "desgustar" used as: "bebidas para desgustar"? Is it an entendre doble somehow? Maybe disfrutar?
Why does the lesson say to use Hay with “It is foggy” but Está with “It is sunny”? I would think both would use Está
Also the lesson says to use Hay when it is followed by a noun, but Foggy is an adjective.
Thanks for your help!
You answered a question at the bottom this section (to Papi on April 16, 2018) and said:
This sentence could be using both "fui" and "era" depending on the the timeframe when the action happened, being more specific (preterite) or more irrelevant (imperfect).
Could you expand a bit on the "irrelevant (imperfect)" which is an interesting perspective, I hadn't come across before.
Point in quiz being referred to:
Mi prima ________ Miss Universo. .My cousin was Miss Universe HINT: Conjugate "ser" in Pretérito indefinido
As far as I can see, the text doesn’t discuss ‘hasta’ which is listed as an option in the answers but marks as wrong. My dictionary seems to have some examples where ‘hasta’ is used for movement towards a place. What is the distinction?
Hi, I was wondering if in the following examples, "cuando" can be interchanged with "si", because there are lessons about si-sentences with the exact same combination of tenses/modes to excited hypothetical situations.
Ella te habría perdonado cuando tú le hubieras pedido perdón.
She would have forgiven you when you had apologised to her. (hypothetical situation)
Dijo que me llamaría cuando llegara al hotel.
He said he'd call me when he arrives at the hotel. (future/hypothetical event)
Thanks so much! I really enjoy this course :)Nosotras fuimos responsables de ese proyecto.

Shouldn't this be "este proyecto?"
