What suffixes are used to indicate jobs? @belisarius: I've just expanded my answer including the suffixes "-logo" and "-atra". The word "médico" doesn't have a suffix "-ico", as far as I know. |

What's the meaning of “hasta” in the following sentences? The second sentence I should write like: "Los resultados del examen no se publicarán sino hasta febrero". What do you think? |

How prevalent is the phrase “qué padre”? I'm not quite sure, but because qué must be accented when beginning an "exclamation phrase", then the subject asked by the OP should be written as qué padre... |

Spanish abbreviation for the United States of America @Flimzy: Roman is indeed answering the question. He said clearly that he thinks E.U. is the proper term. And his opinions are not off-topic ranting: he gives his own reasons for his answer. |

How should I translate “table” (as in a data table)? Yes, besides the formal documents, it's almost always preferred the word tabla. |

Bueno as hello or greeting? In Chile, ¡Buenas! is also used as a greeting, something I think wasn't used so often some time ago. |

What Spanish term (or terms) work best to describe a glass jar as used for coffee, jam, etc? @JuanManuel: but "tarro", at least here in Chile, means a can, or something like a metal jar, but always made out of some sort of metal. |

What is the diminutive of “pan” (meaning bread)? Here in Chile it is a bit different: Pancito, Trencito, Pececito, Solcito. There's even a very famous chocolate brand called "Trencito". |

Etymological origin of “false friends” between Spanish and English I'm asking if there is some known source (if any) for the false-friends between these languages. Well, if there is more than one main source, they are also welcomed. |

What is the future subjunctive and how was it used? I think you tried to say: "Aquel que hubiere comprado la boleta cuyo número sea ...". Anyway, it isn't future subjunctive but perfect future subjunctive (see my answer to this same question). |

Do “alborada”, “amanecer”, and “madrugada” refer to the same thing? As far as I know, anochecer and atardecer are not related to the english word dawn. Am I wrong? |
