Great structure to know!  Check your English translations, however, as they don't fit the correct grammar patterns:

1.  If PRESENT, then FUTURE

2.  If IMPERFECT, then CONDITIONAL

3.  Your "If PLUPERFECT, then CONDITIONAL PERFECT" examples are correct.

The "this may be closer to latin amercian spanish" warning came up in this exercise, for a part of the text given as a hint!

"A las cuatro, tengo entrenamiento de fútbol."

Puedes hablar y Dejan usar in the same sentence ?  Te and Ellos?

I wrote, La pantilla hizo huelga, but it was marked wrong, and the correct answer was El personal hizo huelga. Isn't la pantilla the same as el personal? 

¡Gracias!

Hello, I'm trying to get a better understanding of when to use different constructions.

Specifically:

Si Amalia va al mercado, comprará pescado fresco.

Si Amalia fuera al mercado, compraría pescado fresco.

These two constructions express the same idea.  How do we know which one to choose?  Is our choice solely based on the probability of the action in the "si" clause?

Thanks.

My memory is poor and when writing in the listening exercises I really need to hear the dictation twice in most sections. It seems we can only listen once to each section? 

This is my first impression of Kwiziq.  I came here to develop listening skills, but my impression is that Kwiziq is mostly oriented toward grammar.

Basic audio controls like pause and rewind are missing. The "vocabulary" help is hardly more than a rough (thought for thought) translation, not a detailed explication of the literal meaning / etymology /gender /conjugation of the words.  There seems to be no control of the playback speed.

Being a newbie, I may have missed something. If so, please enlighten me.

Hi,

Is there a way to replace the above pronouns when there is little context. For example, by using 'de él, de ella ...'?

Thanks.

Saludos,

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?

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.
