Question

What's the difference between un and una in Spanish?

Donagan

Top Answerer

They both mean "a." "Un" is applied to a masculine noun ("un chico"). "Una" is applied to a feminine noun ("una chica"). "Una" can also mean "one" as applied to a feminine noun (as opposed to "uno" for a masculine noun).

I was taught early to use "quisiera" when ordering from a menu. Now that I am learning the various tenses, I thought it would be the conditional form of querer, but it isn't. What tense is it?

"Quisiera" is in the imperfect subjunctive tense.
