Questions & Answers about Para descubrir la mejor ruta, pregunta a todos sobre su experiencia.

Why is para used here instead of por?
In Spanish, para often indicates purpose or goal—"in order to." Here, it shows that the main reason for asking everyone is to discover the best route. Por, on the other hand, would typically express causes, time periods, exchanges, or modes of travel/communication rather than purpose.
Why is descubrir in the infinitive form here?
Because the sentence is expressing the idea "in order to discover." After para, you generally use the infinitive to describe the purpose of the action—there's no need for a conjugated verb in this spot.
Why say pregunta a todos instead of just pregunta todos?
In Spanish, when you direct an action toward a person (or people), you usually use the personal a. So if you want to say "ask everyone," you say pregunta a todos. Without the a, it can sound incomplete or could potentially imply something else (though pregunta todos isn’t a common structure).
Why is it su experiencia (singular) and not sus experiencias (plural)?
Su experiencia treats the idea of each person's experience as a singular concept. It’s common in Spanish to say "ask them about their (singular) experience" as a general reference. If you wanted to emphasize multiple experiences each person might have had, you could use sus experiencias, but su experiencia is perfectly acceptable and commonly used.
Could we say experiencias in the plural form?
Yes. Pregunta a todos sobre sus experiencias would also be correct if you want to stress that each person might have more than one relevant experience. However, su experiencia feels slightly more general and is typical when referring to the idea of a person's background or input as a whole.

“How does verb conjugation work in Spanish?”
Spanish verbs change form based on the subject, tense, and mood. Regular verbs follow predictable patterns depending on whether they end in ‑ar, ‑er, or ‑ir. For example, "hablar" (to speak) becomes "hablo" (I speak), "hablas" (you speak), and "habla" (he/she speaks) in the present tense.
