Or, maybe todo bien means "everything's fine?"

The other construction is confusing. I'm eager to hear other suggestions.

Buena suerte...

Hold on -- let's discuss this response from "Ken":


I agree with Ken that:

Me gusta tus cuestiones. Aprendo mucho de la calidad de sus cuestiones.

Should use "tus preguntas" as Ken recommends and not "tus cuestiones ". I hope?


I understand the use of "cuestionar" means "to question" something as in "doubt" Example:

  • "Es una cuestión de que seas capaz de nadar por una milla, que es necesario usar un chaleco salvavidas."
  • (It's a question of you being able to swim for a mile, that you need to wear a life vest.)

Hear "cuestión" -- questions the ability to swim a mile. "preguntar" would not work.


And "preguntar" is to ask a question about something.


Ok any help and thoughts will be welcomed.

What context? You never posted any. - Eddy, Nov 11, 2009

When you say me gusta tus cuestiones don't you mean tus preguntas as cuestiones is the second person subjuntive of the verb "cuestionar" which means to question.

HI smalleye, welcome to the forumsmile

Please remember this is a learning site and we use corrct spelling here, thanks;.)

Todo bien.

It depends on the context here, small, but this normally means: it's ok, is it ok?

"corrct spelling" (as you wrote!) is definitely a virtue. Often it arises from misstyping, yes? - 0057ed01, Nov 11, 2009
