Why is it “compramos dos billetes de ida y vuelta en ventanilla” and not LA ventanilla? I don’t think I’ve seen this before, it doesn’t seem to fit with the other rules on definite articles?

In the dictionary that give the definition of temer as to be afraid. I don't see anything about being suspect.

Variations of 'Stop doing something'

In English there is a difference between 'stop smoking' as in put down the cigarette your smoking right now and 'stop to smoke' as in in quit smoking for good. Anything like that in Spanish?

Why cannot I use "Vamos, ... " as "Come on, ..."

If the example used "Vamos, ..." as "Come on, ...", why cannot I use it in my Quiz answer? Perhaps the Quiz needs to be more modified to remove the multiple correct options and be more concise.

Tocara - tocaran?

1st table of examples. Why do you use 'tocara' in the third sentence when referring to 'they'? Should it not be 'tocaran'?

Gerund with a change of subject

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.
