Pintxos y rioja?

¡Chicos, esto no es justo...otra vez! ;)) Hablando de cosas tan deliciosas...me encantan los pintxos y por supuesto me encanta el vino de Rioja.

¡Bueno, eso es todo, me voy a España para comer algo de buena comida y vino! Jajajaja :))

P.S. Thank you for all the fantastic and really informative translation exercises that you provide for us. I really enjoy them!

"I am a neighbour of yours" is ambiguous as to what sex "yours" refers to.So surely vuestra is just as correct as vuestro. What am I missing?

Possible correction

Based on the answer choices, shouldn't the mini-quiz questions "Her baby doesn't eat any fruit..." read "My baby doesn't..."?

Pronunciation of words with accents?

Hola,

It seems like all previously accented words, such as lámpara, pájaro drop the accent, so that pronunciation is on the penultimate syllable - pajarito, lamparita?

Is that the case and are there any exceptions?

Gracias,
