Hola,
I think “les” is an indirect object pronoun in this phrase. I thought a direct object pronoun would be used because it is “we helped them.” We are the subject they are the direct object. Can you explain?
Many thanks. John
Hello,
In the following sentence I expected está, as "but it is very cold". Have I got this wrong?

Hello,
one of the sentences to be translated was: They were even better than in my dreams.
The best answer is: Eran aún mejor que en mis sueños.Why isn't it "mejores" here? "Eran aún mejores que en mis sueños."
Thanks!

Álvaro va a trabajar en un bar este verano.
Sometimes the English is contrived to make a point in relation ta a specific lesson. These can be quite false. To say Alvaro is working in a bar this summer means it is now summer and that is what Alvaro is doing. If asked: "What is Alvaro going to be doing this summer?" the response could well be : " He's workking in a bar this summer" meaning that is what he is going to do.
Why not give the English as " Alvaro is going to work" OR " is going to be working in a bar this summer". ?. it is less artificial and makes much more sense. (And is less irrtating)
HI in the expression lo que admiro mas es la generosidad I put la que because generosidad is feminine but duolinguo said it is lo que, why is this
Hello,
Thank you very much for this lesson !
Hello Inma, I don't think you understood my question earlier.
I was wondering why there isn't the "personal a" before each name in the example. There is only one a in the example with 2 names. Why isn't there 2 personal a, before each name? In all your examples, the sentences only have one person in each of your examples. I know I've seen before an A before each person/pet when there are 2 or more in a sentence.
Why is it "a Paula y Cristina" and not "a Paula y a Cristina" ?
Suggestion: To be consistent with other pages, and avoid confusion, I suggest you mark all the "i"s that are irregular in this conjugation.
