For ¨People always want to give their opinion about everything.¨ my answer ¨La gente siempre quiere opinar sobre todo.¨ was marked incorrect and the correct answer was given as ¨La gente quiere opinar sobre todo.¨

What happened to the ¨always¨ ?

If the encantan is third person plural because of actividades, then shouldn't it be se encantan?  Wouldn't quiero be a better verb?

In the kwiz, the sentence is: "La matemática y la aritmética no son lo mismo." I understand that we use "lo mismo" when discussing an abstract idea, but in this case, does the phrase have to match the compound subject and verb, los mismos? 

The title of the question says it all!  Thanks.

Hi. I just read these 2 phrases in an article:

A tan poca distancia del sol

A tan solo 42 millones de kilómetros del sol. 

Is it similar in meaning to the above but varies only with the use of distances instead if time?

Hi - 

Wondering if you could explain when to use le instead of la or lo? I usually think of le as “to him” or “to her” like an indirect object. But I am not sure. Thank you!

In the reading exercise Espiritu Navideño, the woman is described as espíritu mágico de Navidad. How come, the ending is not changed to match the feminine "mujer"?

Have any of you struggled to fulfil the expectations of the improvement timeline? The grey line is always at least 4 percentages above my progress. What does it look like for you? Are you managing? Are you ahead? Let me know

The question is: “_____ los formularios el bolígrafo se quedó sin tinta.”

I chose “Mientras yo llenaba” since the translation was “While I was filling out the forms, the pen ran out of ink.”

Kwizbot says that “rellenando” is also correct, and I’m not sure why. The sentence “Rellenando los formularios el bolígrafo se quedó sin tinta” sounds as though the pen was doing the filling out—there’s no other subject expressed.
