Two questions
1. On a Fluenz Flashcard, you translated: “This dish is very expensive, (I) want another one” as “Este plato is muy caro, quiero otro.” I am unclear if this means “This dish is very expensive so I want another DIFFERENT dish” or “This dish is very expensive BUT NONETHELESS I want another of THE SAME dish.” or if you cannot distinguish in Spanish these two different statements.
2. On numerous Flashcards combining infinitives—like “going to eat” or “going to go” or “going to shop”—sometimes you indicate the answer is “vamos comer” or “van ir” or “va comprar” and other times it’s “vamos a comer” or “va a comprar”. I’m not sure when to add an “a” for “to” and when the “to” is included in the infinitive (“comer” = “to eat”, not just “eat”)
