Differences between “razón de,” “razón por la que,” and “razón para” Thanks, that helps. So what's the most common translation of a sentence like, "The reason he didn't come was..."? |

Why is “missing” added to waiting in Spanish? I would understand it as, "I have 10 minutes left to wait." |

Spanish words for cake, pie, pastry, etc @belisarius: Examples from any region would be helpful for future reference. |

Can Spanish distinguish between “lonely” and “alone”? @belisarius: Maybe that's the difference then. Does the alone meaning always go with estar and the lonely meaning always go with sentirse? |

How do you use the “passive se” with a reflexive verb? Thanks for the detailed answer, although I was really wondering not whether they can be combined in a single sentence (using two verbs), but in a single impersonal/reflexive verb (like the "How does one shave?" example I gave in comments above). |

How do you differentiate between walnuts and pecans in Spanish? Interesting, wasn't familiar with the history. |

How do you differentiate between walnuts and pecans in Spanish? Well to be fair it's not a "random site on the Internet," it's an online version of the Concise Oxford Spanish Dictionary by Oxford University Press. But still, thanks for the clarification :) |

How do you differentiate between walnuts and pecans in Spanish? Interesting, I'd asked because WordReference lists the translation of "nut" as fruto seco and nuez as meaning either "walnut" or "pecan." |

Translation of “Welcome back!” So bienvenido by itself works even if the person isn't new to the place you're welcoming them back to (e.g. if they lived in a city for years, left for a few months, and then came back)? |

Tildes sobre las letras mayúsculas Gracias por la respuesta. ¿Este es el caso también con palabras donde la tilde no altera la pronunciación (por ejemplo, QUE vs. QUÉ)? |

When is the indirect object pronoun required in sentences with an indirect object? That makes sense for the common usage, but I'm still curious about the RAE's rule about if/when it can be omitted. |
