I assume then if I wanted to use the expression 'vale la pena' in the conditional, it would read 'valdría la pena'? (It would be worth it)?

¿Estás en casa?

Hola,

(Sorry to revert to English!) Would the above sentence still make sense if 'la' was inserted before 'casa'? It would then be consistent with the other similar examples, which would make it easier for me to remember.

Gracias y saludos,

Colin

Question regarding use of "ser"

Hi,

My question: Why the "ser" verb is used in this sentence instead of "estar" Nuestras vidas pueden ser muy ocupadas con la pareja?

As I learned, we have to use estar in the sentences like these: Estoy ocupado, estás muy feliz, etc. I am confused a bit.

Ways to say "become"The "correct" verb required for this sentence is "se hizo": "Ella ________ famosa después del anuncio de la tele." I put "se convirtió" because it's a major change of her position in public life. "Hacerse" is described as a change of profession!

A few doubts

•Why do we have to use 'pero' in the first sentence?

•In the hint provided, it was given that tardar tiempo = take long, then in the answer key, why is 'mucho' used?

"Todo aquel que" and "aquel"

If I'm correct, it appears from the quiz that "aquel" and the equivalent "todo aquel que" forms have identical meanings. Would it be worth adding a note in the lesson to clarify that "todo aquel que" is simply another alternative?
