Can querer in pretérito indefinido mean either wanted or tried?

The question is “where is.   “ not “is there” surely the answer is está but you marked this as wrong

I selected Latin American Spanish but to my ear this listening exercise uses a Spanish accent -- or is it Argentinian? "preciosa" for example is pronounced "prefiotha" but that is not how I've heard it in Ecuador. Or are the listening exercises not tailored to the selection of Latin Am vs. Spain?

Greetings,  I have a question about the sentence “Mientras, los otros niños hacíamos una fila…” If the subject is los otros niños, should the verbs in this sentence be conjugated in the third person plural? Hacían? Entraban? There is no indication that the narrator is including himself in the group of kids waiting in line. Please help me understand. Thank you. 

As it is have you    it shoud be tu tienes

I gave the answer Ustedes son they said it was incorect and should have been ustedes eres

Hi, I have a question about the grammar of this sentence. I apologize it doesn’t have to do with “aquella.” Just wondering  about the use of “estaba.” Why not “estuvo?” For something to be broken is that not permanent? Or is it because it was fixed that it “used to be broken”? Am I over thinking this?

I've listened over and over and can't hear the Y in "José y María". 

Is it not there or am I just unable to hear it?
