Hi, one of the weekend workout links is broken.
Thanks.
Which one is correct:
Tres es más que dos.
Tres es más de dos.
When the noun ends in a consonant or the vowel -e we tend to keep the whole word and add -cillo, -cilla, -cillos, -cillas. Hola, the lesson on the suffix cito etc says it applies to words ending in e. So which would be the correct suffix to add to Quijote? cito or cillo? Muchas gracias, Shirley.

No consigo olvidar nuestra conversación
i found these sentences when reading a book. this is my first time seeing how conseguir is used with another verb infinitive. may i ask for a explanation? is this usage where conseguir + infinitive carries the meaning of manage to do something (verb) similar to poder + infinitive?
Is there a way I can see a list of my mistakes from the tests I have done?
It would be useful to identify the areas I consistently make the same errors in so that I can focus on those specifically to reinforce everything.
Hola Inma,
my answer was: no te olvides de que la mejor mezcla es ...
but the "de" was marked wrong and deleted.
According to the lesson, when using the reflexive form olvidarse, we need to use the preposition "de". Does this not apply when it comes to imperative?
Muchas gracias

"dentro del seno de una familia catolica, (etc)" = within the bosom of a catholic family. Why pare down the literary parts to just the basic meaning of "to a catholic family (etc)"? The "dentro del seno" seems to indicate that he was born into a loving, caring family (O.K. plus wealthy and traditional!). But when we read Cervantes and Shakespeare aren't those literary embellishments what made them classics?
Hello, this is a more advanced topic but I've come back to review.
Why do we use the subjunctive in this statement:
Ustedes pueden comprar lo que quieran.
Thanks.
Hello.
I wonder why we used the preterito perfecto de sujuntivo in this sentence, instead of the presente de sujuntivo. Aside from the given hint to use the said verb, can you explain why? Thank you.
