La gente

Hola,

Al final del párrafo, encontramos la frase "Finalmente, la gente no irá a la oficina y trabajarán desde casa". ¿Porqué es "trabajarán" y no "trabajará", si sabemos que el sujeto de la frase es "la gente"?

Muchas gracias,

Amy

This exercise

I held my breath several times!

Kwizbot ¡Aguanté la respiración varias veces!
You ¡Aguantaba la respiración muchas veces!

To me this seems this would be ongoing : that he held his breath while things were happening….

Could the imperfect be used as well in this case?

Thank you, Nicole

Translation wrongI saw this in one of my progress tests:
Ella no cree que vosotros ________ eso por ella.She doesn't believe you did that for her.
The correct answer is "Ella no cree que vosotros hiciereis eso por ella." I understand this is the future simple subjunctive. Is the translation wrong? i.e. should it be, 'She doesn't think you will do that for her?'

Stating your profession

I was told in writing here in this app (and in another Spanish app) that when saying what you are (what your profession is), you do not put an article before the name of your occupation. Example: “Mi papá es médico.” (My dad is a doctor.) - No un of una. I took a test here earlier today and someone is a carpenter. I left out the article and was correct. Did I miss an exception? I will say that in this test, it was the person saying what their own profession is. “Yo soy un ?” I’ve already forgotten what the job was. Can anyone let me know? Gracias.

´a´ for telling the time

There was a test question that said ´8 a 10´ means the same thing as ´8 menos 10´ but this guide doesn´t mention it.

Are they interchangeable?

question said I was wrong when I wasn'tEsta ________ mi antigua escuela.This used to be my old school.(HINT: Conjugate irregular “ser” in the imperfect past/El Pretérito Imperfecto. Example: "ella tenía" = she had/used to have)

Esta solía ser mi antigua escuela.

I'm pretty sure that I'm right and it puts "era". I know that "solía ser" is even more accurate than "era".
