Well, it was easy for me to guess what you meant cause I know you like Thalia's music, and when I saw the word I immediately thought of "Marimar"

My keyboard is German, so it doesn't have "ñ" either, but it's very easy to get it: just press "alt" and 0241 at the same time.

Ana, siempre me ayudas pero, no puedo hacerlo! Quizas tu teclado es diferente

Mmhhh! Maybe I didn't explain myself clearly enough: you press "Alt" (the left one) and hold it pressed while you press "0" then "2" then "4" and then "1" , and only after you pressed the numbers, let go of "Alt".

There are other ways of getting "ñ", but this is the only one I know by heart. I'll search for the others and let you know about them, ok?

Hey Gozde, are you there?

Another way to get "ñ": same procedure, ie press "Alt" and hold it, and then press 164 and let go of "Alt".

Greetings and hugs,

Merhaba Gözde. Nasılsın?

Well, puedes is present of the indicative, in contrary puedas is present of subjunctive. In this case, No me ames is the negation of the imperative and in spanish the negation of imperative is formed with no + subjunctive of present.

Use of the subjunctive:

Subjunctive take the following:

1) Ojalá
ej. ¡Ojalá apruebes los exámenes!
2) Quizás, talvez
ej. Quizás no vaya hoy a la escuela.
3) Para que
ej. He venido para que me des los apuntes.
4) Cuando (only when we want to speak about future)
ej. Cuando haga buen tiempo, iremos a la playa.
5) En cuanto (only when we want to speak about future)
ej. Por favor avísame en cuanto llegues.
6) Aunque (only when we want to speak about future)
ej. Aunque me lo prohibas, iré a la excursión.
7 i) Siempre que (when it means con tal que)
ej. Siempre que nieve, iremos a la montaña para esquiar.
7 ii) When it means cada vez takes indicative.
ej. Siempre que me encuentra en la calle, ¡me cuenta la historia de su vida!
8) A no ser que
ej. Saldré con vosotros esta noche a no ser que surja algo urgente.
9) Antes de que
ej. Pienso organizar una fiesta antes que regresen mis padres de la vacaciones.
10) Hasta que
ej. ¡No te preocupes! Espera hasta que solgan los resultados.
11) De ahí que
ej. Cada noche ve películas de terror, de ahí que tenga tanto miedo antes de dormir.
12) Por más que (to speak about future)
ej. Por más que intentes no conseguirás nada.
13) No creo que
ej. No creo que a Juan le guste esta comida.
14) Expressions like: es necesario que, es posible que, dudo que, me alegro de que, lamento que, siento que, es una pena que, es raro que, no parece que, no está claro que, no pienso que, no es verdad que etc.
15 i) With the impersonal expressions (es recomendable que etc) we use infinitive when qe speak generaly.
ej. Es recomendable comer verduras y frutas.
15 ii) When we speak specifically about a person we use subjunctive.
ej. Es bueno que hagas algún deporte cada día.
16) In the 1rst kind of conditional when there is como instead of si.
ej. Como no bebas leche, no comerás postre.
