My mother has an unusual mobile phoneHello:
in the exercise at: https://progress.lawlessspanish.com/my-languages/spanish/exercises/judge/314/481235?response=57969&page=8
sentence: My mother uses her mobile phone to make calls and send texts
Spanish: Mi madre usa el teléfono móvil para hacer llamadas o mandar mensajes.
The exercise says: "and", but the translation is: "o"
i.e.: and send texts.
Kwizbot: o enviar mensajes.
You: y enviar texto
Why is the translation "o" 9meaning "or" 0 instead of "y" meaning and as per the text?
Is there an error here, if so what lesson would answer this?
Thank you, Nicole

Hola,
Is there a lesson which develops this theme, and discusses when the definite article is used with the noun in the body of a sentence - and if there are times when this is not the case?
Thanks. John
In what context can we use them both? E.g can I say hay/hace una tormenta? Or ... Hay/hace mucho frío?
Is there a lesson that explains how to pronounce when a word ends with a vowel and the following word beginns with a vowel?
Can they be used synonymously? What is the difference in meaning and use between the two?
Hello, could esto and aquello suit in these sentences ?
If not, when can I use esto and aquello ? and when musn't I use ello ?
Muchas gracias.
how do we know how to choose between ser and estar? i thought ser was used for permanent things but estar is for not permanent things?is that thought true?if not how do we know which to choose?
Hi,
I did a search on your site to find out the above, but there were not results.
Do you have a lesson/guidelines on how to form adjectives from country names?
In the quiz there were names of countries and I couldn't tell how to form the plural adjective.
Thank you, Nicole
From what I have learned from searches, is that :"cuyo" is always an adj, even though in English and French they are pronouns.
So, is this correct: "cuyo" is always an adj,"
Thank you.
Nicole
