Spanish language Q&A Forum

Hello

I've run out of reading exercises before finishing A1. Are you planning to add more? I try and do one in my daily session. They're very interesting and helpful. More please! : )

Thank you

pro ejemplo

Él fue alpinista en su juventud

Él era alpinista en su juventud

Cuál es corecto？Por qué_

This is very poorly worded. Oír means to hear, NOT can hear NOR is able to hear, so why have you asked can hear in the question?

Now I don't know whether to use poder (conjugated) + oír or oír because I don't know whether you are asking me can hear or hear.

I do not have to water them often,

Kwizbot           no debo regarlas
You                  no necesito darlas agua

I’d like to know if my reply  is good /correct Spanish or is it not the way this would usually be said.  (I don't mean whether it would  be understood, but is this the only way to say this, or can it be said other ways?)

Hope you had a muy Feliz Navidad and wishing you a wonderful New Year! 

Thanks you.

The English asked for "any animals" on that last sentence. So would the better translation be ¿ tienes algunos animales en casa?

It seems to me that there are examples of both Indicative and subjunctive  for the main clause in the lesson, yet when I use indicative in the tests it is always marked wrong. Please explain.

The noun "búho" [= eagle owl] is an illustration of the way in which a 'silent h' has no bearing on whether or not there is a hiatus. At first glance, foreigners might think [incorrectly] that it should form two syllables *without* the need for a tilde.

I have reason to believe that my report of incorrect grading may have been incorrect itself all along. I have been copying and pasting the quizzes before submitting them and have seen that my reading of the questions has not been as conscientious as it could or should have been.

¡qué tonta!

Here, designed by Gaudí is POR but in the Rioja tourist office exercise :luxurious Marqués de Riscal Hotel whose design is by Frank Gehry 

POR is not accepted. What should I note as the important difference?
