Still confusedThis still makes no sense. Quoting from the lesson:
However, if the verb used is transitive, we usually use a direct object pronouns: me, te, lo, la, nos, os, los, las.
Les ha hecho pedir perdón al profesor.He made them apologise to the teacher.You say that pedir here is a transitive verb (perdón being the direct object), but then you go ahead and use an indirect object pronoun (les), exactly the opposite of what you said in the lesson.
Again quoting from the lesson:
There is a tendency to use an indirect pronouns me, te, le, nos, os, les when the verb is intransitive.
Then you give an example using an intransitive verb (arrodillarse) but you use a direct object pronoun (lo) in the example.
Lo hizo arrodillarse para declarar su amor.She made (forced) him get on his knees to declare his love.
This too is the opposite of what the lesson says.
Please explain.
Dicha ejemplo, eso es, " Nos costo mucho" = It was difficult, la significa del verbo COSTARSE en este contexto = i find it hard to/ difficult to in the sense of speaking to someone...... Esta razon.
BARRY.
I answered: yo no dije esa palabra. Why is that marked as incorrect
The question was to fill the missing word (the hint was only that heredero is masculine):
The Heir to the crown ....
______ heredero de la corona
I answered "El" and was told it is incorrect, it should have been "Un". This seems wrong?

I am confused about the verbs 'oir' and 'escuchar'
Would it be "estoy escuchando music" o "estoy oyendo musica" are both correct?
for this story, can i say 'el clima era bueno.' to replace 'Hacía buen tiempo' ?
II want to know the name of the wordthat goes with haber to form phrases dado estado etc
Why is it cárie
In the example “Ellos siempre estan comiendo” why is the present progressive tense used. In my research I learned that the progressive tense is used for temporary ongoing action. The use of siempre implies that it is not temporary.
I understand it grammatically or literately. What I am trying to figure out is what the semantics is. The sentence seems breaking the semantic chain of the text. What is the author trying to tell us?
