Hi I have a question. For the phrase "and with sea views," why is it "y con vistas al mar", rather than "y con vistas del mar"? 

Tu tienes should be correct as it refers to you.     Tiene refers to he/she  

As it is have you    it shoud be tu tienes

I've done this so many times it is getting boring. Is there a skip button?

Hello,

Can anyone please explain the use of ser in these 2 examples? Both are describing temporary states (I think.) They are from a video that has many sentences to translate..  This seems not to accord with the normal use of ser.

1. No sea tonto.  (I would tanslate this as "Don't act silly." We are not saying "You are a silly person."}
2. Era obvio que el conductor no había sido lo suficientemente cuidadoso.  (I don't think this is a passive construction. Shouln't this be "no había estado"?)

Hola Inma,

I don't understand the use of subjunctive here:  "Nunca hubiera pensado". Why not había pensado ?

Un saludo coldial

In this sentence from the exercise: "Él es muy famoso, expone en muchas galerías y museos y tiene muchos premios."

The word "muchas" is feminine, but since it seems to include "museos" I was thinking it might be "muchos". Is it a rule that the first in a series determines the gender, or was this done to say "many galleries and (some) museums"?

The lesson seems clear on when to use the article in a date, but questions don't make it clear which is called for. That needs to be cleaned up...........
