Your test question asked for a conjugation of saber Yo ________ enseguida que él era el asesino.I knew right away that he was the killer.(HINT: Conjugate "saber" in Pretérito indefinido)
You said the answer was supé and not supe. I have been unable to find an example in your lesson that uses the accent mark. What am I missing here and where can I find an example of supe with the accent mark along with an explanation_

How would you say: "These are Lucía's shoes. Put them there for her!"

What is the problem with either Pónselos allí OR Se los pon allí ?? Both are grammatically correct yet it seems sometimes that these "tests" go out of their way to make responses more difficult an obcure than they should be.

Si nosotros hubiésemos caminado menos, ________ de hambre. If we had walked less, we wouldn't have died of hunger. (HINT: Conjugate "morir" in El Cond

This grading of this question appears to be an error on the part of Progress. Conditional Perfect is the answer specified, which is "no habríamos muerto" and is the answer that I provided  The answer from Progress is given as "no hubiéramos muerto" and is Preterito Plumamperfecto Subjuntivo, not Condicional Perfecto.

Language to express 'Those who'


In this text, 'those who' is translated in two different ways.. are they sinónimos?

quienes osaban visitarlo podían susurrar sus anhelos

Aquellos que se adentraban en la oscuridad del bosque

I used 'los que'. Is that always wrong?

Gracias
