Questions & Answers about ¿Cantas la canción conmigo?

Why does the Spanish sentence use the present tense cantas when the English translation says "Will you sing"?
In Spanish, the present tense is often used to make requests, offer invitations, or ask about the immediate future. So ±Cantas...? can mean "Do you sing?", "Are you singing?", or as a friendly request, "Will you sing?"
Why is it conmigo instead of "con mí" for "with me"?
In Spanish, "with me" is a special combined word: conmigo. You cannot say "con mí". As a bonus, "with you" also has a special form: contigo.

Words ending in -ción are almost always feminine in Spanish. That is why it uses the feminine word for "the", making it la canción.
