Why does the hint say this:(HINT: los muebles (plural) = furniture (singular))

I would've said estos without it, but it made me second guess myself and put este. What is this hint trying to say? I'm not understanding how I misinterpreted it.

order of words and use of definite articlesEl domingo cocino una paella.I cook a paella on Sunday. Could this also be translated "On Sundays I cook paella."and this one.El lunes estudio matemáticas.I study maths on Monday. "On Mondays i study maths."and I have a desire to make it have definite article in front of mathematicas. Some times it seems like they are being used differently then I do in English.Do you know where that is?

Use of "de" after "millón"

It is probably worth remembering that Spanish has a specific rule stating that "de" must always appear between "un millón" [or "millones"] and the noun which it is qualifying. Is this mentioned in one of your lessons? ... Does the same rule also apply to "billón"?

Conjugating poner in the future tense seems to follow a more general pattern

Namely, adding a 'dr' to the stem before the regular endings.

I will leave ... Saldré

I will put ... Pondré

Is there a rule? Only for -er and -ir verbs?

Great way to avoid the imperfect subjunctive etc.

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.

Use & Nonuse of Articles in Spanish

I wish there were a lesson explaining how the use of articles in Spanish differs from English. For example, "he has a good heart" is "tiene buen corazon" not "un buen corazon". Another example, "I will be in the first row" is "estare en primera fila" and not "en la primera fila".

translation of the verb oir

I am confused about the verbs 'oir' and 'escuchar'

Would it be "estoy escuchando music" o "estoy oyendo musica" are both correct?

Va, ir meaning with particles

Va vestido elegantemente, va pegando a los pobres. I can’t find lesson note on this or in dictionary. May I know if this is a grammar point such as ver + participles to mean something ?

I could only check one box

Please check this question.

When I did this quiz a few minutes ago, I only had the choice of one answer. It turns out that there were three correct answers so I received partial credit. I added it to my notebook to look at the question again, but once again it did not offer the ability to check multiple boxes.
