Using the gerund as a commandNiños ¡________!

One of the choices was "Comportándose" which was marked wrong. However, according to this lesson, wouldn't that also be correct:
Using the Spanish gerund as a command %252Fsearch%253Fs%253Dusing%252Bthe%252Bgerund%252Bas%252Ba%252Bcommand

Maybe I'm missing some reason why it doesn't work in this case? Thanks!

Set or Estat

Hello,

The last sentence in this quiz confuses me.

I understood that estar is used with feelings such as “be happy” as it is temporary. But with this “goal” after “para” you have used ser.

Please would you explain why this “to be” is ser?

Thank you.

De vs de que

When is one preferred over the other?

I know the -- if after a noun is doesn't make since with " which or that," then use " de que" if you intend it to be " that"

But like what about the other times?

I swear it almost seems like other than what I said above, it's interchangeable.

Thanks.

Is this phrase correct? "Una ave bonita"Is this phrase correct? "Una ave bonita" I answered 'no'. Kwiziq gives the answer as 'yes'. As ave is stressed on the 'a' I thought this would have taken the masculine form.

lo vs el in the last section

In the last section of the translation, "between the practical, incredulity and mysticism" is translated as "entre lo práctico, la incredulidad y el misticismo." I don't understand why the práctico gets lo as it's article (other than because the hint said so). Can you explain, please. Thanks

Conjugate soler in El Presente (present tense). El problema es la pronunciación de la palabra "todas".

En esta lección Yo pienso que hay un ejemplo de una pronunciación que no está correcta. Este ejemplo sigue: Suelo ir a natación todas las semanas. Específicamente es la palabra "todas". Por favor escucha esta palabra Y dígame si es correcto.

Weekend Workouts No Longer Updated?

Thankfully I do receive the weekend workouts by email, but my preferred method is to select from the Weekend Workouts page, especially for catching up. The last one listed was 20th May 2022 and it's now 10th July.

Will this be updated?

Thank you!
