Wrong answers vs right answersWhen "explain this" for less than correct answers refers to why the correct answer applies, I think it would be just as helpful if the program explained why the chosen wrong answer is not correct and under what circumstance it would apply. Too hard maybe for "fill the blank" but possible for multiple choice. I think I saw a table that compares these impersonal pronouns, how can I find it? (Algún, alguno, algunos, algunas)
Also, when I looked up the wrong answer I found what I think is less correct English.
Guillermo didn't know many pubs and he wanted to go to some (a random pub). = "Guillermo no conocía muchos bares y quería ir a algún. ALGUNO."
In this case, SOME, implies more than one.

Hola Inma,
Gracias por ser tan claro cuando lees los ejercicios. ¡Me encantan tus historias! :)
Just wondering if the lesson title should be Presente Perfecto instead of Preterito Perfecto?
I don't understand why numbers written out in full rather than as numbers are regarded as incorrect. Siete = 7. Should have the option.
Are YOU going to work now? why is this answer not vas?
¿Se puede usar “¿Te anima a visitar Paris?” o sería mejor decir “¿Te animas a visitar Paris?” ? Me parecen posibles las dos preguntas.
The question reads, "How would you say "The person I went to the party with was my father."
==============================================
The below answer was marked as a correct answer.
"La persona con la que fui a la fiesta era mi padre."
==============================================
Why use the pronoun, la, when the object is padre, a man?
Thank you, James
Could we hide parenthesized hints when it is time to test without them? I am reaching the level where learning is becoming ingrained such that I feel that I know the answers without being told, for example,. "refers to a past action that has been completed".
