We were told to form an adverb you take the feminine form and add 'mente' so it would effectively be 'Amente' So why does it say fuertamente is wrong, it's fuertEmente?
1Los enamorados se abrazan ________ . Lovers embrace each other tightly.(HINT: Convert "fuerte" into an adverb.)fuertamentefuertementefuertomentePlease clarify what is meant by each it.
I assume the first it refers to the reflexive pronoun and the second it refers to the verb. BUT ONE CANT BE SURE
Can you please tell me when to use 'eso' and when to use 'ese' or 'esa'. In the sentence, 'Eso es un paraguas.' why 'eso' and not 'ese'? And, is the usage of 'esto' similar?
Thank you.

No entiendo cuando usar "o sea" o "es decir". Me puedes ayudar?
Una pared de mi habitacion es rosa. I thought that walls and rosas had to agree in number? Adjective agrees with the noun in number?? I am new at this, so sorry if it sounds very elementary.
Thank you.
It seems to me that it is a statement of opinion or one of uncertainty, not a statement of fact.
Thank you
To me it sounds a bit contradictive in this lesson: first, you say "nouns that end in a consonant and refer to inanimate objects are generally masculine" and then you continue with "you cannot predict the gender of inanimate objects".
I have no problem with having to memorize things, but I think that first part may be confusing to some, so it might be better to just leave it out.
I'm very much enjoying the lessons in general though. ¡Gracias!
what does the > symbol mean when used in e>ie, e>i, etc?
CORRECTION:Lucrecia earns a living by acting in comedies.....................In english you do not use the word LIFE in this sentence
Finding this lesson on Kwiziq has proved a real revelation for me! I've been learning Spanish for the last 3-4 years through online courses geared toward Latin American Spanish and wasn't aware of this difference. I've always been aware of some regional vocabulary differences but, since I've geared my learning toward Peninsular Spanish (which I need), I'm now finding quite a few grammatical differences too. I had seen the perfect used in this way in El País articles and books etc but I'd not been able to find any resource that actually explained it... until now!
Could you answer how specific times might influence choose of tense?
I spoke to him at 3am this morning
His flight left at 6pm today
These specific times seem to indicate start and finish times. Do they point toward preterite?
