English Translation

I'm confused by the English translation: (I didn't have any chewing gum in my pocket.) for No llevaba ningún chicle en el bosillo.

Question: Why is this not "No tenía ningún ...?

The translation I remember of llevar from an earlier lesson is to take.

Am I wrong here? Please clarify.

árbol vs corazón

Why does árbol become arbolillo, but corazón becomes corazoncillo? They both end in consonants.

The explanation above says both that "If the original noun ends in a consonant, it usually keeps the last letter (árbol → arbol-illo)", but also that "when the noun ends in a consonant...we tend to keep the whole word and add -cillo, -cilla, -cillos, -cillas".

So why isn't it arbolcillo?

Thanks!

Ella estaba deseando empezar su viaje a Honduras"Ella estaba deseando empezar su viaje a Honduras."

The quiz translated this as "She is looking forward to starting her trip to Honduras." Wouldn't that be "Ella está deseando empezar su viaje a Honduras."?
