Another adjective placement questionHola,
To piggyback on David's question about the 'rich hot chocolate', I am also wondering about the 'small religious festival'. I can't remember the hint, but I'm pretty sure it confused me. Maybe, 'small was reinforcing festival'??
So I made a note that hot was reinforcing chocolate and was therefore placed after chocolate in the correction edit, but then when I tried to apply the same rule of small reinforcing festival, meaning it should been placed after festival, (which actually looked and sounded strange to me) it was actually placed before festival.
I am confused!
What is the rule with a reinforcing adj? They are placed before the noun? And is David correct that rich is reinforcing chocolate and not hot?
And reinforcing seems to even be a new descriptive word. I looked back at the lesson and saw highlight, emphasize, differentiate, distinction and extra nuance. What is 'to reinforce' equal to?
I'm not trying to be super picky. I'm just looking for rules to apply in my learning process.
Thanks!
Can this not also mean buy it for yourself in a formal you? Don’t worry I have just worked it out. My error.

Hello. Why we use "consiguieron", not "consiguyeron"? Thanks. Zuzana
‘We had to play football without kneepads’ - in English we say shin pads (UK) or shin guards (US). Knee pads are what you use for skating. SpanishDict is telling me shin guards are ‘espinilleras’, but I have no knowledge about about which is correct/if one word may be used in a certain country and another elsewhere etc
Just took the weekly quiz on 'El futbolin' and got everything right just by using my instinct and what sounded right to my ear. And, though I had read and kwizzed this lesson before, it is a very different matter to use that knowledge without being able to scroll up and read the explanation as needed.
So, thank you for this lesson which explains clearly the difference between muy and mucho. Another review was very helpful.
