In the third sentence, would it be correct to say: "Mi mejor amiga se apunta rápidamente a estos programas."? Does it take something away from the meaning by saying it the way I wrote it?
In the fourth sentence, would the sentence be correct if I eliminate "son las que"?
I'm not trying to take anything away from the "style" of the writing or from the grammatical importance of the use of these relative pronouns, but I just want to know if the use of these relative pronouns is more about a certain style of writing or if they are grammatically necessary.
Thank you.

Hello and I hope you are all doing and staying well!
In English they say that becoming proficient with transitive and intransitive verbs further includes knowing how they function with direct and indirect objects.
1) I'm wondering if this applies as well in Spanish and if so
2) how can we use this and which lessons cover this particular subject.?
Thank you for your help.

The lesson suggests that the use of adónde vs dónde is dependant on whether a verb of movement follows.
However, in a Kwiziq question "Luis me dijo _______ había ido de vacaciones" we are only given the options donde or dónde. But 'ir' seems to suggest adónde (Luis told me to where he went).
So, is it that 'ir' is in past perfect here (and that the movement is finished) that 'adónde' is not a valid option in this case?

Hi!
I was wondering if there is a mistake here in calling these "interrogative pronouns" searches come up as these being "adverbs". Is there something I'm missing?
Thank you.
I am very confused by the English translation of the sentence "Os veo bastante triste." ("I can see that you are quite sad"). It seems to me quite a few words are missing in the Spanish. Can one also say, "Puedo ver que estáis bastante triste." Please help. I find that I am often confused as to when "que" must be used. And in this particular case, I'm also confused about the verbs.
Saludos,

vado una sorpresa negativa al tener un niño en vez de una niña, porque no te lo esperabas ¿no?"
(I imagine you may have got a negative surprise
Native English speakers would say “an unwelcome surprise”, “a negative surprise” sounds very odd
In a test question, I answered “Nosotros nos llamamos Ana y Maria” and was marked incorrect, with “Nos llamamos Ana y Maria” offered as the correct answer, yet.......your lesson on reflexive verbs uses nosotros nos in an example. I am aware that the pronouns can often be dropped but I feel a bit cheated given it is used in the lesson example and not accepted in my answer in the test question.
why is a future tense used in this sentence? could we use some of the past tenses instead?
