Robot Voices - Are they getting betterHello all,
Not so much a question, but an observation. When you click on the little speaker symbol at the end of a Spanish sentence, the robot voice has a go at reading it out.
There seem to be three or four different robots now, when I started with Kwiziq I think that there were only two.
I call them
"Mateo" - he's the "good" Spanish man, his reading seems to be quite good. Some UK users here may know why I call him Mateo.
"Marisa" is the older sounding lady, sometimes it sounds like she struggles, and is nowhere near as good as a human, and sometimes sounds both angry and bored.
A new lady, "Maria" seems to have come along as I have moved into B2 Lessons, she sounds younger and to me much better.
So what do people think of our robot voices? If it was possible I'd ask for "Maria" to kick Marisa to the kerb, as her Spanish sounds more fluent to me.
Buenos días.
hola
________ digo siempre lo que pienso.I always tell him what I think.I answered 'lo' thinking that it was the direct object but the answer was 'le'Is 'lo que pienso' the direct object and 'him' the indirect object?
as a note , I never recieve email notifications of answers - so sometimes miss themthanks for your help
At the top of my page it says: Note that this is a Europe focused lesson. Your active focus is Latin America
Obviously Latin America covers a huge range of countries/dialects but generally speaking how would this differ in Latin America?
Thanks!
"I am a Gemini" would be a better English translation for this exercise. I use standard American English. :)
No ________ todo el tiempo a nuestro hijo; necesita espacio.
We can't be watching our son all the time; he needs some space.
(HINT: use modal verb "poder" and the verb "vigilar" for to watch)

Hi, when will these exercises be fixed? It has been several days now. Thanks for a great app.
Thanks for explaining, shirley.
Parece ser que ________ un malentendido. It looks like it is a misunderstanding.tratatrata dese trata deI did the assessment test, and began the lessons. At the end of the two lessons I tried, there were two questions at the end. Two questions is not enough practice for me. Am I missing something ?

Hello, excellent lesson. We know that "un/una" changes with gender. Is this true of every number that ends with "un/una"?
Ex:
Vientiún estudiantes, veintiuna camas
Ciento un aguacates, ciento una botellas
Thanks.
