"con todas las velas?" Right now it says "todas la velas"

The above is an A2 question and the expected answer is te however no guidance is given that a singular informal tense is to be used.

Couldn't le, les or os also be used here if no further context is given.

How to I remove Latin America lessons from Dashboard?

In this exercise the preterit 3rd person singular of "creer" is shown as "crió" whereas in my other Spanish dictionaries it is shown as "creció". Is the former conjugation specific to Latin America whilst the latter (creció) is specific to Spain?

How do learners remember when to use the "de" described above? Do native speakers learn it only from growing up with the language? I don't see any particular rule for knowing when to use the "de" and when not to--how "wrong" is it to omit the "de?"

No hay duda de que este restaurante lo tiene todo para triunfar.

I don't understand the function of LO in this sentence. Can it be omitted?

Gracias

Hola,

In this lesson we have the example of "Si, te quiero."

The direct object pronouns introduced are: Me, Te, Nos, and Os. The other direct object lesson referred to deals with: lo, la, los, and las. 

What is the direct object pronoun for "Usted", the formal of "Tu"; or "Ustedes", the plural of "Tu" in Latin America?

I seem to remember it to be: "le" and "les" respectively.

For example, I would say to my elderly neighbor, "Si, yo le quiero"

Is this correct? And, is there a lesson that covers the direct object pronouns for "usted" and "ustedes"?

Gracias,

N. Hilary

When should you use reflexive verbs?

Cuando queremos decir "you won't regret it!", por qué con el verbo arrepentirse lo usamos sin el objeto "it", pero cuando usamos el verbo lamentar, lo usamos con el objeto "it". 

Por ejemplo: No te arrepentirás (sin objeto) versus no lo lamentarás (con objeto)
