As with the majority of these writing options, how about including common Latin American  options like el carro, manejar, and ¡Qué ganga! for this exercise.

I greatly appreciate all the hard work in making up these exercises, and adding the options for Latin American speakers would make this site and these exercises even better.

'Padre'= cool, great, nice.

¡Ese es otro adjetivo padre que no conocía hasta que hoy!

¡Gracias Silvia! :)) 

Feliz Pascua a ti y a todo el equipo.

Since The main differences between ser and estar include that ser is used for permanent qualities, like your name, your place of origin, and your physical appearance, while estar is used to talk about temporary situations, such as how you’re feeling right now or your location.

So why is SER used in this sentence:  Tú eras muy bueno.  - the person that you are talking to is not always good so it is not a permant state.

Ditto in the following sentence.  You are not always rich so why use SER in the following:  Vosotros erais ricos.

Throughout the exercise the hint directs you to use the 'tú' conjugation of the verbs, but the answer provided each time uses third person singular conjugation.

Why is this tense called indefinite. How do I know whether to use the indefinite rather than the perfect?

Hola,

Thank you for this lesson. I understand that ningun is used before a noun: 

"No tengo ningun dinero para ir de compras hoy.";

"Ningun estudiante hizo la tarea."

My confusion is when concerning when to use "ningun" vs  "ninguno"? 

Saludos

Rafa, el muy egoísta ... : Rafa, [being] such an idiot .... 

Shouldn't the translation be "Rafa, [being] such an egotist"...?  Or perhaps ""Rafa, the egotistical  jerk"

I'm assuming that before using this form the paragraph would start out using a tense that would ground the event in the past.  Thus I'm assuming you would not start out saying "Martina se llevará una gran sorpresa al ver de nuevo a su madre".  You'd instead start out with saying ""Martina pensaba que su madre había fallecido" or something else that signals we're talking about the past.  Is this right?
