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¨ ?

tense of Spanish verb

You give:- Ha venido quejandose hasta hoy = He's been complaining until today. Then:- Sospecho que desde aquel dia viene ocultamdome...- he's been hiding...

Same tense in English but different in Spanish. Why, please?

que vs qué

Dear Kwizteam,

I find it weird that the 'que' here is not 'qué'. In all of the other sentences where the word is used in exclamations or questions, it needs tilde. However, here, it does not. Could you comment?

Regards.

Relative pronouns "el que" and "lo que"

I am having trouble with these. I was thinking "con el que", "para el que", etc meant "... which" as in 5124

and that "con lo que" and "de lo que", etc. meant "... what", as in 5125.

But then I missed some questions because I used "con el que" instead of the correct "con lo que". Can you help me out?

Thanks

Lo dejaron todo

Why does this sentence have "lo"? Doesn't dejaron todo mean they left everything?

"para leérmelo"

Hola,

This seems to translate as "in order to read it [to myself]." Is there a reason why both direct and indirect objects are used, and the direct object is not sufficient - i.e. leerlo??

Saludos

John

Achieving fluency is possible here.

This is not hyperbole.
I have had much experience with more than 10 other language learning websites and I can testify to the fact that this is the only one that makes fluency an achievable

goal for language lovers.

literal translation

May I respectfully draw your attention to your example immediately under 'The accidental 'se' with olvidarse and suggest as a literal translation

'The keys have forgotten themselves to me'? This accounts for the perfect tense and the reflexive 'se'.

You also give examples of forgettibg things 'accidentally'. Can one forget things 'on purpose'?
