Using "a" before a verb when and when not to use?
Hola a todos,
Tengo una pregunta sobre cuando se usa "a" antes un verbo. Por ejamplo: No he querido (a) caminar/cenar/comer. Parece que he visto eso escrito en ambas formas; con (a) y sin (a). ¿Hay una regla sobre eso? ¿Puede alguien me explica?

It's not a matter of an "a" before a verb, it's that "a" sometimes follows a verb.

I dont think so.
Maybe is the way that you want to say that.
Quiero ir a caminar.
Quiero caminar.
(x) Quiero a caminar is incorrec.
No he querido caminar.
No he querido cenar.
No he querido comer.
And go somewhere.
No he querido ir a caminar.
No he querido ir a cenar.
No he querido ir a comer.
Usando solamente la "a"
Vamos a caminar
Vamos a cenar
