Una marca española

Hola,

I was marked correct for putting "una marca español" when in fact it is an exception to the rule for adjectives ending in "L" per the lesson, and should be española.

Is it in fact optional?

Saludos. John

Splitting direct pronoun from indirect pronoun!In the following sentence, the direct pronoun and the indirect pronoun are linked to different verbs. I, for one, have never seen this construction before " me permitan hacerla". Is there a grammar test on kwizik for this

Sin embargo, lo que más me importa es que la empresa de la entrevista sea comprensiva y que me permitan hacerla en otro momento

Nos volvemos vs. volvemos

Why is Nos volvemos incorrect? Also, Would Nosotros volvemos be incorrect? The answer was simply Volvemos.

Preterito perfecto vs Imperfecto

"And the experience was horrible" "

Ya ha sido una experiencia horrorosa"

Why did we use "Perfecto" instead of "Imperfecto"? I'm so confused!

And also "El camping estaba muy sucio"

Can't we use "Era" here ???

First on the list....

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?

Salvador Dalí

Hola Inma,

I' m a bit confused with the articles. Why not el Salvador Dalí era un pintor? In a lesson of yours I read:

El Quijote fue escrito por Miguel de Cervantes.

El señor López era muy valorado por todos los vecinos.

Te agradezco mucho tus respuestas muy útiles!

"de paladar en paladar"

Hasta ver este video había tenido la impresión de que exclusivamente se usa la frase "de x a x" para decir "from x to x," pero dice el narrador que las Picotas del Jerte "darán la vuelta al mundo de paladar en paladar."

¿También habría sido aceptable decir "de paladar a paladar"?

Weekend Workout - Writing exercises are headed incorrectly

After 20 minutes of trying to hack through what I thought was an A2 exercise, and feeling very very stupid, I noticed that the B2 and A2 exercises have been placed on the wrong links! Well I have learned that I'm definitely not at B2 level, and hopefully the A2 exercise will me more simple!
