Questions & Answers about Enviamos el anexo en el cual fijamos las condiciones.
Why do we use el cual after en instead of just que?
In Spanish, you can't place just que directly after prepositions like en, por, or para when referring to things. You need to include the article. While you could use en el que here, en el cual is slightly more formal and precise. This perfectly matches the business tone of sending an annex with conditions.
Why is it el cual and not la cual or los cuales?
Does fijar just mean "to fix" like repairing a broken item?
No, to fix a broken item is usually arreglar or reparar. Fijar means to fix in the sense of making something firm, secure, or established. In this formal context, fijar las condiciones means "to set the conditions" or "to establish the conditions".
Since enviamos and fijamos end in -amos, could this sentence be in the past tense?
Yes! For regular -ar verbs, the nosotros (we) form is identical in both the present and the preterite (simple past) tenses. Without more context, this could also be translated as "We sent the annex in which we set the conditions." In a real-life scenario, you would easily know which tense is meant based on when the email or document is being sent.
