PUNCTUATION LESSON - EXCLAMATION MARKS IN SPANISH
! marks are used at both the beginning and end of a sentence, as are question marks. However, if a sentence contains a question and an exclamation, it is OK to use one of the marks at the beginning of the sentence and the other at the end. |

PUNCTUATION LESSON - THE DASH
The dash is used most frequently in Spanish to indicate a change in speakers during a dialogue, thus replacing quotation marks. In English, it is customary to separate each speaker's remarks into a separate paragraph, but that typically isn't done in Spanish. |

When To Use 'El' with Feminine Nouns (like agua)
http://spanish.about.com/od/adjectives/a/el_for_la.htm |
|
Definition
There is one instance where el is used with feminine nouns. The substitution of el for la takes place only when it comes immediately before a singular noun that begins with a stressed a- or ha-. A few examples:
•el agua (the water)
•el ama de casa (the housewife)
•el asma (asthma) |
|
|
Term
| More feminine words with 1st syllable accent that take "el" |
|
Definition
• el arca (the ark)
• el hambre (hunger)
• el hampa (the underworld)
• el arpa (the harp)
• el águila (the eagle) |
|
|
Term
All the nouns in the list of examples are feminine. If they are in plural form, las is used:
•las amas de casa (the housewives)
•las arcas (the arks)
If they are modified by adjectives that follow the noun, the regular rules apply to the adjectives:•el agua purificada (purified water) |
|
Definition
If a word intervenes between the definite article and the noun, la is used:•la pura agua (pure water)
•la insoportable hambre (the unbearable hunger) |
|
|
Term
If the accent of the noun is not on the first syllable, the definite article la is used with singular feminine nouns when they begin with a- or ha-:•la habilidad (the skill)
•la audiencia (the audience)
•la asamblea (the meeting) |

| AGREEMENT WITH "DEMASIADO" |
|
Definition
http://spanish.about.com/od/adverbs/a/demasiado.htm
Demasiado is a common adjective or adverb that usually carries the idea of "too," "too much," "too many," "excessive" or "excessively."
When used as an adjective, demasiado precedes the noun it refers to and agrees in number and gender with it. Demasiado can also appear in the predicate of a sentence following a form of ser.
•Tres partidos políticos son demasiados. Three political parties are too many.
•Hay demasiado azúcar en los cereales de los niños. There is too much sugar in children's cereals.
•Fue demasiada la tentación. The temptation was too much.
•Tener demasiados amigos en Facebook provoca estrés y culpa. Having too many friends on Facebook causes stress and guilt.
•¿Se puede tener demasiado amor, demasiada fe o demasiada honestidad? Considero que no. Can one have too much love, too much faith or too much honesty? I think not.
As an adverb, demasiado is invariable — that is, it doesn't change in form. It typically comes before any adjective or adverb it affects the meaning of but after any such verb.
•El verano llegó demasiado rápido. Summer arrived too quickly.
•El expresidente habla demasiado y sus declaraciones son desatinadas. The former president talks too much and his statements are foolish.
•Dicen que los coches ecológicos son demasiado caros. They say "green" cars are too expensive.
•Soy demasiado inteligente para creer en esas cosas. I'm too smart to believe in those things.
•Las áreas brillantes pueden aparecer demasiado blancas en las fotos. Bright areas can seem too white in the photos.
•El problema es que mi marido trabaja demasiado. The problem is that my husband works too much.
In popular speech, you may sometimes hear demasiado as an adverb made to agree with an adjective it refers to, but this is not considered grammatically proper Spanish. As an exception to the rule, however, it is correct to make demasiado agree with forms of poco: Pasan demasiadas cosas en demasiadas pocas páginas. Too many things happen in too few pages. |

Definition
No hemos hablado de la pelicula. No hemos hablado de eso. Todavia, no. [WHEN "FILM" IS FEMININE, WHY DID SPEAKER USE "ESO" INSTEAD OF "ESA"?]
That is a good idea. Eso es una buena idea.
My gut feeling, however — and I could be wrong on this — is that the grammatically appropriate form of the demonstrative pronoun is the neuter eso, for the reason you gave: Eso refers not a specific thing or person that would have a gender, but to a concept, situation or, in this case, a quandary that has no gender. I'd have a hard time imagining an argument that would claim eso in grammatically wrong.
