It might be worth mentioning in Kwiziq's lesson Ya sea/ya fuera... o... to express whether... or... - [number 8284] that verbs [usually?] take the subjunctive when they are governed directly by "ya sea (que)..."

There are several things that are confusing about this lesson - the terms and meanings. You use both pretérito perfecto (once)

and pretérito perfecto compuesto (twice) in the same lesson for the same verb form. Is it possible to use just one.

Also, in my experience, ha invitado has usually been translated as has invited rather than invited/ ha visto as has seen rather than saw. So, I would then translate había visto as had seen. This is very confusing. Help. K

When to use articles

Hi,

In the translated text above, these terms all get the articles, however, in the test, they all don't.

i.e.:la astronomía, y en las matemáticas. También, trabajaron en la agricultura y el comercio"

in the test, it corrected me, so I'm a bit confused:

Could you please let me know when you can/cannot use the article "le,la,las" etc in front of these:

The test examples:

Kwizbot Los aztecas destacaron en astronomía,

You Los aztecas destacan en la astronomía,

You could also say: Los aztecas destacaron en la astronomía,

Kwizbot También, trabajaron en la agricultura

You También, trabajaron en agricultura

[note: here I dropped the article and it didn't correct me]

Well done! and in mathematics.

Your answer matched mine: y en matemáticas.

Thank you for your help and have a great day!

Nicole

Differentiate between third person Presente and second person Imperativo

hi - What is the indicator we should look for to understand whether the verb is being used for third person presente or second person imperativo? Is it that in Presente, there will always be an El / Ella?

To come or to go

A quiz question asks “vas a venir al cine mañana?”. In English it seems more common to say “are you going to go the movies tomorrow?” (or simply “are you going to the movies tomorrow?”) Any insights into this use of venir instead of ir?
