Uses of "Que" and "De"

Question

I've noticed in a lot of songs the word "Que" and "De" are used in areas I don't quite understand. Here's some examples: "Que sin dudar te seguiría." "Que deja ciega toda la ilusión." I would really help if you could tell me the meaning of "Que" in these sentences. And it would be great if you could tell me some additional uses of "Que" and "De." I know the basic uses of them but sometimes they seem to be placed in unusual places. Thank you.

the two are used in comparison for example she is taller than him ella es mas alta que el. now to say she was the tallest of all you use de. ella es mas alta de todo. - elipayne, Dec 14, 2013

Answer 2

For the best explanation of how "que" or "de" is used in Spanish, I would suggest that you consult a Spanish-English Dictionary. I just looked up "que" in my Barron's Spanish-English Dictionary, and it contained a pretty good explanation with lots of examples. Dictionaries are great tools for learning a second language. To summarize all the different ways "que" or "de" is used and to assemble all this information in the form of an answer would be an arduous task. Maybe you should try reading a dictionary entry, and then if have a more specific question, or if you are not sure how one of these words functions in a given sentence or song lyric, then post that here, and I am sure you will find that a lot of helpful answers are posted.

Answer 3

Why don't you translate those to English and see for yourself?

You've got to be kidding. of course I have translated them already. But a simple translation doesn't give me the grammar rules or additional uses behind it. - ServantOfGod97, Dec 13, 2013
