Why isn’t this considered an action that started in the past and is still ongoing?
The answer for "the test results" is singular. But shouldn't it also be plural? There could be many results for one test.
Mi madre no piensa que yo vaya a terminar el curso de fotografía.My mother does not think I will be able to finish the photography course.
“…vaya a terminar..” means …going to finish…” It does not mean “…be able to finish…” but, hey, I may be translating too literal?
One of the examples given is: "Nadie responde...lo mismo el restaurante ha cerrado." Can you say the same thing and exchange "lo mismo" for "quizas": "Nadie responde...quizas el restaurante haya cerrado."?
En la frase, "que si unas almejas", no entiendo porque utilizamos 'si' y no 'son'.
¡Hola a todos!
Me ha gustado mucho esta lectura, pero quiero dejar un comentario.**
El autor escribe:
"Finalmente, quiero ver el amanecer sobre el Océano Pacífico, en Ciudad de Panamá, y el atardecer en el Océano Atlántico, en Colón."
Nunca he estado en Ciudad de Panamá. Dicho esto, ¿alguien ha visto salir el sol sobre el Océano Pacífico desde la costa oeste de Panamá? O, ¿ha visto ponerse el sol sobre el Atlántico en una playa de Colón?, en la costa este de Panamá? ;>)

I was hoping to learn Mexican pronunciation but you use the Spanish pronunciation using the th sound instead of c sound. Are the listening exercises also going to use the vosotros grammar forms or Mexican grammar?
I reported this as an issue, and perhaps should have brought it up here instead. For one of the quizzes, the answer is
A veces __me olvido de__ que llevamos casados 20 años. (Sometimes I forget that we've been married for 20 years.)
I noticed that the verb *olvidar* is being used intransitively and that, even though the "accidental se" is being used, that olvido is not in the third person. (It's not in the preterite / no accent on the o). I'm having trouble finding an example of this on the lesson page.
Thanks!
