I notice all the caer examples used reflexive pronouns except the following example :
El árbol cae encima de la casa.
The information indicates that reflexive pronouns are generally used with caer, so I'm wondering if the above sentence also correct as follows:
El árbol se cae encima de la case.

In the "Examples and Resources" section I found this incorrect translation:
En la mañana ordeno mi dormitorio.
In the afternoon I tidy up my bedroom.Could you please elaborate more on which condition to use feminine or masculine? For example, why not a lo francés, since it's a style, and why not a ciegos, but a ciegas? Thank you!
Great exercise, it would be even better if the suggested words to check before starting the exercise could be viewed translated directly here without the need to go to extra vocabulary book/web. Thanks
La palabra tablao ne es espanola, ¿no.? Me parece que sea portuguesa.
Quiz statement: Esa profesora explicaba muy bien pero esta nos aprobaba fácilmente.
My translation: That teacher explained things very well but this one passed us easily.
Quiz translation: That teacher explained things very well but with this one we passed [the subject] easily.
How I would translate that back into Spanish: Esa profesora explicaba muy bien pero, con esta, aprobamos fácilmente.
The translation of the second clause seems to change the focus, with the subject being the teacher (passing the students easily). I realize it’s subtle but do you think it makes a difference? Did the second teacher go easy on the students or did they just connect better with her teaching?
Why does the speaker sound like he is making some kind of extra sound before saying the first word "estoy"? I listed to it over and over and it sounds so strange to me - like a "y" or "e" sound before he says "estoy". Am I missing or misunderstanding something? Thanks!
Hi
9 Vosotros ________ solteros desde siempre. You guys have been single since always. The answer was estáis which would translate to You guys are single since always. I was looking for han estado for the answer. Have I missed something?
