vegana por su novio. I put se ha hecho.
My sister has become a vegan for her boyfriend.How is this different from the example given with the use of hacerse?
Example given:Se ha hecho vegetariana después de ver el documental.She became a vegetarian after watching the documentary.
Is it because he changed (radically) for his girlfriend and not his (ideology) on his own accord ?
Hi,
I find I have a very difficult time trying to differentiate the various terms used on your site for verb tenses and what their equivalents are either in Latin American Spanish and/or English. Especially in the "test your knowledge" section. Every time I have to search and search for the English equivalent to make sure I have the right tense being asked for.
I looked for a list of them on your site and couldn't find any . Where do I find this or could you please furnish one with their ( Latin American - if possible) English equivalents.
My 501 verbs doesn't the same titles for tenses as you have. For example: Your: Preterito Perfecto , is Perfecto de Indicativo in my dict;, Your Preterito Indefinido is Preterito in mine.

When you say "colloquially", is it a less formal/ slang-like way to use it?
And which region is it used?
The word "aparentemente" is misspelled in both the list of words and in the transcript. It is pronounced correctly.
The quiz answer (shown below) and the lesson information don't match. I wonder if you could help explain. I don't see anywhere in the Lesson where it says, "Arriba, corriendo" means "Hurry, run!" Is that information in another lesson?
Thank you! I also found a very good website for pronunciation, listed by diphthongs, etc at:

which might be useful.

This is marked wrong with continúa as the answer (my answer), yet continúa is the correct answer for the present tense and according to your own "help" text. There seems to be a lot of sloppy "teaching" in Progress Spanish lately.
Could "la plataforma" also be correct for platform, or is that Latin American? Thanks
¡No faltes al respeto a tu profesor!Don't insult your teacher!Why is this not taking "le" before the verb since it is "faltar a alguien"?
In this question I answered "éramos" instead of "fuimos" since the text referred to "used to be." Why was that wrong? I get that the "completed action in the past" hint confused the situation. Shouldn't the question be clarified, or am I missing something here?
Nosotros ________ muy buenos estudiantes.We used to be very good students.(HINT: Refers to a completed action in the past.)
From the lesson:
"Note that while "fue" is generally translated into "was" in English, "era" can be translated into "was", "used to be" and "would be"."
