SELECT ALL THE CORRECT WAYS TO SAY: "The picture is on the wall, between the other two":

CORRECT ANSWERS:
A) El cuadro está sobre la pared, entremedio de los otros dos.
B) El cuadro está en la pared, entremedio de los otros dos.
C) El cuadro está en la pared, en medio de los otros dos.

entremedio = en medio de = in the middle of = between

In Spanish we can either use the prepositions “en” or “sobre” to say “on”. The Spanish preposition “en” has a much broader meaning. It is often used as “on” and as “in”.

The Spanish preposition “sobre” implies “leaning on”. Therefore, its meaning is not as broad as the English preposition “on” when talking about location.

However, “sobre” has an additional meaning. It also means “about”, as a synonym for “acerca de“.
