I think that "deporte" in Latin American Spanish should be translated as: I don't play sports or I don't do sports.
Or, the word "deporte" should be substituted with "ejercicio."
Does the verb "costar" always take the preposition "a" when referring to the person OR entity upon which the cost is falling? Here, "los gobiernos" are not people or favorite pets, yet the personal a is apparently indicated.
The lesson was unclear on whether this sentence structure is colloquial, formal or written only. Kindly elaborate. Regards

what can i do to work on my spanish.
The translation for final sentence in this exercise ("I would like to visit Medellín next year) was confusing for me.
I wrote: "Querría a visitar a Medellín el próximo año. But "the best answer" was "Quiero visitar Medellín ..."
I find this confusing because I understand "quiero" to translate to I want/would like -- not I would want/I would like.
Please help up clear this confusion.

when I find one that seems same I will add it
"Acordaos que estamos fríendo esta tortilla a fuego lento."
Shouldn't it be "de que"?
Just did this lesson and saw the word "cross". Although it does make sense in old English and some people will still understand the meaning, it is definitely not a word that is used a lot among English speakers today. I think "angry" would be a better word and would reduce the likelihood of someone not understanding what it means.
