I studied Spanish as my major in college, and have travelled to Spain, Venezuela, and various parts of Mexico. I currently teach high school Spanish and teach private lessons to adults who want to learn Spanish. I make no claims to speak Spanish perfectly or even really fluently, although I can speak fairly well and enjoy it. I have a grammar nerd kind of brain and love getting into the grammatical details of the language.

How should I discuss my wife's due date? @JoulSauron, in "Lo esperamos..." is the "lo" referring to the birth or the baby? In other words, if you're expecting a girl, would it change to "La esperamos..."? |

Forming a conditional clause in present and present tense -1 Mixing the present and the future tense is grammatically correct in the sentence "Si tengo un millón de dólares, compraré una casa grande." |

Are there cases when I can mute last s? I also heard this a lot in Venezuela. |

What is the most idiomatic translation of “no way!” I've also heard "No me digas" used that way. |

Forming a conditional clause in present and present tense @Laura's example is correct, but the sentence in question is not incorrect. They are different ways of stating a similar thought, but different grammatical rules apply to each one. |

Is “tobogán” an acceptable word for “slide” throughout the Spanish speaking world? Thanks for the confirmation that it is, at least, acceptable and common to use in Spain. |
