I noticed the sentence below in a quiz. I'm curious to know why "ese" is the natural choice here instead of "aquel." I had thought that both words should indicate maximum distance.

select ...AhíAlláAquíAllá, en ese país tan lejano, la gente trabaja demasiado.

What other things?

Hola,

Could you provide a few (more) examples of the use of the verb 'to cost' something?

What sorts of things does it cover (or could you use it for everything)?

Everything fluctuates in price, so are we talking about things that we concentrate our daily lives on (sometimes obsess about!): stock market/ currency, houses, petrol, food, drink? Things we think of as fluctuating day to day?

Gracias,

se debe vs se debería

Hola,

In the sentence "Therefore, time should be invested...", I answered "Por lo tanto, se debería invertir el tiempo" while the given answer is "Por lo tanto, se debe invertir el tiempo". Since the English sentence shows 'should', shouldn't 'se deberia' be more appropriate than 'se bede' which would translate to 'must' rather than 'should'?

Gracias,

Benhur

económica u económico?!

"este tipo de formación es económica"

En este caso, creo que el adjetivo correcto es "económico", porque esta el adjetivo se refiere a "tipo" y no se refiere a "formación"

When I am ready, will there be a way reset my records to start over from the beginning of the course?

Is there a way reset my records to start over from the beginning of the course?

When I am finished with level CI I am going to want to repeat the entire course again because I am moving too quickly through the lessons and the idiomatic expressions are not making it to my long-term memory. I'm doing much better with verbs, pronouns, adverbs and adjectives. Also, I need to expand my vocabulary which might be difficult considering the fact that I have no real life need or occasion to communicate in Spanish. I am doing this for intellectual satisfaction not for any specific reason.

This is very important.
