Spanish language Q&A Forum

Hello, I have just reached 75%+ in the B1 level of Kwiziq.  I have found whilst progressing through A2 courses in the past that it is better for me to reach 75%+ in a level before attempting the written library exercises. 

Even though in the lessons I have "completed" B1, I am finding the weekend workouts at this level very difficult.  I specifically joined Kwiziq as I feel that these "now create sentences and paragraphs in Spanish" is a unique feature for online learning, but wow, they are tricky.

Please someone tell me that this is how it was for them, and that eventually it will become more simple!! Lie if you have to!!

I'm not going to give up, this is what I need, but my brain is hurting :-)

I'm not great at grammar in my own language and before I started learning Spanish I didn't even know what the subjunctive was. So I've learned it's a sort of feeling expressing doubt or IF something were to happen or wishing? I can't quite see how "we're going to sit where there is shade" fits in the subjunctive. Doesn't it suggest certainty? Or am I wrong about this?

Why is "Ellos propusieron cambiar la ruta del viaje." wrong?

Why is "Propusieron cambiar la ruta del viaje." the only right answer?

Where can i find out how to conjugate pintar

in the imperativo?

Maybe this meaning should be on the list as well, from your lesson that "dejar de" + infinitive means to stop doing something or give up something:

Using dejar de + [infinitive] = to stop doing something/to give up something

ln the present tense version of this lesson we learned that we could use the infinitive (sometimes) by dropping the "que". (The "sometimes" was not really explained, but I think one of the users may have clarified it in the comments.) Are we to infer from its omission in this lesson that we cannot similarly use the infinitive when the first clause is in the pretérito?
