1. ADVERB

cómo
how did you do it? — ¿cómo lo hiciste?

how can that be? — ¿cómo puede ser eso?

how are you? — ¿cómo estás?, ¿cómo or qué tal te va? (LAm) *, ¿qué tal (estás)? (Sp) *

how fast can it go? — ¿a qué velocidad puede ir?

how soon can you be ready? — ¿cuánto tardas en prepararte?

you don't know how difficult it is — no sabes lo difícil que es

I didn't know how expensive the tickets were — no sabía lo caras que eran las entradas

they've been telling me how well you did in your exams — ya me han hablado de lo bien que hiciste los exámenes

I like it, but how about you? — a mí me gusta, pero ¿y a ti?

how about going to the cinema? — ¿qué tal si vamos al cine?, ¿y si vamos al cine?
how long
how long is this bed? — ¿qué longitud tiene esta cama?, ¿cuánto mide de largo esta cama?

how long will you be? — ¿cuánto vas a tardar?

how long have you been here? — ¿cuánto tiempo llevas aquí?
how many
how many are there? — ¿cuántos hay?

how many cartons of milk did you buy? — ¿cuántos cartones de leche has comprado?
how much
how much sugar do you want? — ¿cuánto azúcar quieres?

how much is it? — ¿cuánto vale?, ¿cuánto es?
how often
how often do you go? — ¿con qué frecuencia vas?
else
2) (in other statements)
Translate how with verbs other than report ones or verbs of (un)certainty and doubt using como without an accent: como
this is how you do it — así es como se hace

that was how I came to meet him — así es como lo conocí

I'll do it how I like — lo haré como me parezca
