An example with a verb, as well as a noun?

I was directed to this (very useful !) lesson - i.e., Using tener + past participle to express the completion of an action (perífrasis verbal) - from a C1 writing exercise ["Charity Kings' Parade] - to explain the structure of this sentence: "Tengo pensado llevar un paraguas". < This is actually a bit different from the examples given in the lesson, because it is not a noun which we "tenemos pensado"; instead it is the verb "llevar" … [so no noun-agreement is required? - i.e. would we still keep the participle "pensado" unchanged if we said "Tengo pensado llevar mis botas de goma"?] … Thus, it might be useful to add, to the lesson, an example along these lines, i.e., where "Tengo pensado" is followed immediately by a verb.

Conjugate ver in El Pretérito Perfecto (present perfect)

En la lección de la nivel a2, "Conjugate ver in El Pretérito Perfecto (present perfect)", todos los ejemplos y se traducen los casos de El pretérito perfecto como el pretérito indefinido. ¿Por qué?

¿Terminan el trabajo hoy? - Sí, lo terminan hoy. Are they finishing the job today? - Yes, they are finishing it today.

Why is lo the answer if its referring to them? Is el trabajo what lo is referring to?

Ay, caramba

I've just moved from A2 to B1, did anyone else find it a huge step? I seem to be being asked questions about tenses that I haven't been taught. I used a different online language class before I came to Kwiziq, and may have already known a lot up to Level A2, has it always been this difficult? :-)

Question re: https://progress.lawlessspanish.com/my-languages/spanish/view/5105

Hi,

I searched on the site for the lesson referred to in one of the answers below using various ways of asking the question, but didn't find anything, could you refer me to the lesson Silvia was referring to:

"We have currently a lesson in our system titled "qué" + "noun/adjective""

Thank you. Nicole

Uno para o dos paras :-)

Hello, in this sentence

"Mi madre usa el teléfono móvil para hacer llamadas o mandar mensajes."

During the challenge it appeared that both "hacer llamadas" and "mandar mensajes" would need their own "para", due to the way in which the sentence was broken up. I can see now in the full text that "in order to" applies to the sentence "make calls or send mesages" but in the challenge I added a "para" for each sentence.

Is it just me or could this be tidied up?

Thanks

"We were the ones who knocked on the door." Is that not a completed action rather than a repeated action? I don't understand why "éramos" is used.
