Él sueña mucho en la noche.
He dreams a lot at night.
From Lesson 38:Stem-changing verbs (o to ue)·Spanish (Latin America)

Questions & Answers about Él sueña mucho en la noche.

Why is the verb sueña instead of soña?
Sueña comes from the verb soñar (to dream). It is a stem-changing verb, which means the vowel in the middle changes when you conjugate it. For él (he), the o changes to ue, giving us sueña.
Does mucho need to change to mucha since noche is a feminine word?
No, because mucho (a lot) is describing the verb sueña (he dreams a lot), not the noun noche. When mucho describes an action, it never changes its ending to match a noun.
Why is "at night" translated as en la noche?
English uses "at" for night, but Spanish uses en (in) or por (through/by). In Latin America, en la noche (literally "in the night") is the most common way to say "at night."
Why does Él have an accent mark?
The accent mark shows that él means "he." Without the accent mark, el means "the" (as in el perro). The accent helps tell these two identical-sounding words apart when reading.
