For the phrase 'and he even gave his opinion', would 'y incluso dio su opinion' be an acceptable answer?

The test asked me for the correct verb to use with the sentence "Tu ***** la primero de la lista" -  this seemed to be a temporary thing, so I chose "estas". The right answer was "eres"  - i.e. a permanent state. 

I am confused - can anyone explain why use ser rather than estar in this case?

Hi,

I got the following question in a test:

Tuvimos muy buenas experiencias en ________ juventud.

We had very good experiences in our youth.

(HINT: Choose the right word having in mind the ending of the noun)

The two possible answers were twice "nuestra", but one of them is marked wrong when chosen.

Maybe just worth pointing out that in the sentences with "a" the preposition is used in two different ways: 

- as a "normal" preposition, for example, indicating motion: "El partido al que fui" 

- as a "personal a", where there is a direct object (Los cantantes a los que los fans adulaban) but where "a" is needed because the object is personal.

I think that's so, isn't it?

puede explicar porque el participio de bendecir no sigue el cambio de las otras formas de "decir".  muchas gracias......andrew rosenfeld
