For "I will get my nails shaped" we were told to "use the construction for 'to have something done'" - so [following your guidelines for sentences of that type] I put: "me daré forma a las uñas", but this was incorrect. However, "*le* daré forma a las uñas" was among the options allowed?
when I find one that seems same I will add it
This below in the lesson could be this month or could be future. It is a bit confusing, why is the above wrong to be in the present, if it uses the same structure as the below?
Este mes tengo mucho trabajo.I have/am having a lot of work this month.Here, the speaker could be referring to the current month which they are still in, or they could be referring to this "coming" month
One of the options for a mini kwiz question, ""Suspendió el examen, no porque ________ sino porque ese día no se sentía bien." As I understood it, no porque could be used with either subjunctive or indicative and not change the meaning. Why isn't "no porque no iba a estudiar" an option along with the other two examples (which were subjunctive).
Hi,
The translation given for the above is 'You apologised to me'.
I thought it meant 'You asked me for forgiveness', because You were doing the asking. Would 'apologised' not be a different word?
I know that I may translating more literally, but I am I completely wrong?
Saludos,
Colin
Regarding this quiz question:
Tengo estos dos pares de botas, ¿________prefieres?
The answer is “cuáles” which means that “par” is plural, and not singular as in English. Is this correct? In general, when do we think of groups as plural?
Also, how does this affect general usage? Do we say, “los par son bonitos”? Thanks.
How do we use por and para

The lesson seems clear on when to use the article in a date, but questions don't make it clear which is called for. That needs to be cleaned up...........
