Is "hablar" more like "contar"?

Ex:  Su tía nos habló sobre su visita a españa.

Thanks.

“María’s family are happy” is given as the translation to “La familia de María está contenta”. 

This didn’t sound right to me so I googled and found this- https://style.mla.org/verbs-with-collective-nouns/

The reference would suggest that the translation should be ”María’s family is happy” as the members of the family are in agreement. 

Any comments would be helpful. Thank you. 

¿Porqué es "su primer crucero" en vez de "sus"?  Viajeros es plural, si?

Before I did this exercise I studied the difference between these verb forms and still managed to get it wrong on almost every occasion. Not only am I not progressing, I'm actually getting worse. Thanks everyone for all your kind responses and help, it's much appreciated.

 In sentence 1 why is the verb "dar" which I thought means to give used instead of "ir"? 

 In sentence 2 I see Cuenco means basin. Is it being used to somehow mean since a young age? 

  In sentence 2, "19" is spoken with an "f" sound in it when I was expecting a "c" sound. . Is it a dialect, am I hearing it wrong, or am I wrong that 19 is "dieinueve"? 

Thanks.

hi, in this story, there is a part that uses también as also.

can i use además instead? but it was mark as wrong.

"An impersonal statement in Spanish, e.g. "Es bueno que...", "Es importante que..." can be followed by the infinitive", no está correcta, según se puede leer más abajo en el texto.

Thanks.
