Frequently Asked Questions
If 'entramos' can be Present or Preterite, how do I say 'Let's enter'?
For suggestions or commands directed at 'us' (Let's...), you must use the Present Subjunctive form, which is 'entremos'. Example: 'Entremos ahora' (Let's enter now).
Is it 'entrar a' or 'entrar en'?
Both are correct, but 'entrar en' (to enter into) is often slightly more common or formal, especially when referring to starting a state or phase (e.g., 'entrar en razón'). However, for physical buildings, 'entrar a' is perfectly fine and often preferred in Latin America.
