Hola,

Would it be possible to substitute Concurso and Recordar in the paragraph?

Kind Regards

John

no entiendo por que, en español , necesita usar "hay" por una oración: "Hay niebla" --pero, no puedo usa la misma estructura para la expresión -- "Esta soleando". Lo se que el ley es usar "hay" siguen por un noun y usa "hay" después un adjetivo  --pero no es "niebla" un adjetivo también? verdad?

Hola,

In this statement, just wondering why there is the preposition after llamamos?

Después de la fiesta llamamos a un taxi.

I know we have a lesson on prepositions for movement verbs, and guess this comes under the 'purpose' part of that?

Do you have any resources (or planned) to go into this a bit more?

Gracias,

I have obtained 99.0% on this objective; but no matter how many times I answer the questions on the quzzes correctly, the percentage never changes; not even by a ten of a percentage point. Am I the only one having this problem. Can it be fixed?

In one of the quizes  engish scentence "After the blow, you didn't remember anything" one is asked to conjugate recordar in the El Pretérito Imperfecto tense.  I used "recordaba" but this was marked as incorrect.  recordabas was marked as corrrect. Why is the "You formal" conjugation not correct for the above scentence? 

Sorry, I get so hung up on details.

I had always understood that using the simple present tense or the compound "going to do something" worked exactly the same in English as Spanish. Something planned or intended for the future.  (Not the present continuous)

All  the above sentences mean exactly the same thing.

I am not able to see the text. I can only play? How can I see the text to read? 

One thing I find problematic (and frustrating even) about the dictation exercises is the intonation of the voice after punctuation (e.g., commas, periods, question marks, and even exclamation points) is highly inconsistent with natural speech. For example, typically speakers pause briefly after a comma, and the voice is raised sightly (or even demonstrably) after a question has been posed. These common features of natural/normal speech are too often absent and I think that is a major flaw in Kwiziq dictation exercises.
