Spanish language Q&A Forum

Am I right that I could exchage qué poco with cuánto and the sentence would be correct just with an opposite meaning?

It seems that the llevar construction from B1 Spanish is more flexible?

For example if I want to say "He had been working with his dad for a few months", then I could write:

  Él llevó trabajando con su papá por unos meses.

  Por unos meses él llevó trabajando con su papá. 

  Él llevó trabajando por unos meses con su papá. 

Far more forgiving grammatically than the hacía constructions.

Hi room

Why do we use por que and not para que in the sentence 'Puse todo de mi parte por que no termináramos separados'

(Sorry, this is not really a question, but a hopefully helpful comment.)

Colloquially in English we often use the future tense to express present probabilities or predictions, just like the Spanish.  E.g. We could say "I'm not sure where John is, but he'll be practising his Spanish I should think."  Or "Do you think Fred has arrived home yet? Oh, he'll be relaxing with his feet up by now." 

RE" ¿Eres de Inglaterra?

Are you from England? (you=tú)

The lesson says "Sometimes "ya" is omitted, and the structure admits some flexibility"

But when is the "ya" omitted? And why?

It would be great to have the english version as well so it is easier to understand unfamiliar words.
