Para + Infinitive with the same subject / Using "Ojalá" with the Imperfect subjunctive/ Maybe two typos?1. Instead of "para que seamos más felices", could we also say "para ser más felices"? - because the subject is the same in the two clauses?
2. With "Ojalá", you point us towards the lesson Using ojalá + the present subjunctive to express hope (El Presente de Subjuntivo) - which illustrates the use of the *present* subjunctive (when expressing a *future* idea). However, perhaps it would be worth emphasising that in this particular writing exercise ("Carmen"), the *imperfect* subjunctive has to be utilised because the speaker is not really referring to the future?
3. You give "al cual que podemos transformar con los pensamientos" as a possible answer, but should the "que" not be removed? - (or if it is permissible, then you should really mention that in the lesson Using preposition a and de + el que, la que, los que, las que = to/of/from/about which/who (relative pronouns) ).
4. (Something very trivial !) > 'Nuestro' has lost its "r" in the Kviziq answer given as "Todos podemos cambiar nuesto modo de pensar".
Tu tienes should be correct as it refers to you. Tiene refers to he/she
No entiendo por qué el Rey hizo eso. Él lo hizo porque quiso
Unless the Spanish have a definition of "conjunction" that differs from the one I've always understood, both "por qué" and
"porque" are both being used as conjunctions in those sentences. It is the sense of their use which differs.
Can these two uses be distinguished in spoken Spanish and if so, how?
Your second way to express things is numbered "1." instead of "2.".
I only get the same two questions and no matter how many times I answer them correctly, I never can get to 100%. How can I finish this subject?
Why is the answer Que & not La cual?
Thankyou
..... but I've just signed up for another two years, so keep your eyes open for more stupid questions. :-)
From the quiz:
Ben ________ la alarma.
Write ''Ben had been woken up by the alarm.
había sido despertado por
Could I also say, "A Ben le había despertado la alarma."?
Thank you.

Hi, when will these exercises be fixed? It has been several days now. Thanks for a great app.

I've done two A1 lessons so far, and there are only two questions at the end of each lesson. I got all four questions correct, and the confidence meters are at 35%.
But I don't feel confident at all - I feel like I want to do about thirty more questions on the topic before moving on, and to be able to return to the topic a day or two later and be given 30 different questions.
When I click on the 'Quiz now' button in the lessons, it starts giving me questions on all the topics that the AI has chosen for me, but that I haven't looked at yet. But I don't feel that going through all those lessons and only answering two questions each is going to prepare me for the 'big quiz'.
So, how do you get more practise at the content of each lesson? I think I am misunderstanding how to use this website?
Thanks.
