Spanish language Q&A Forum

Self grading has no importance to me. It is cumbersome to have to click an emoji just so I can continue with the test. Please make it optional.

Am I missing where the English translation is? I can't imagine I would need to copy/paste the entire passage (and only at the end, when it's available) and go to another site to find the translation. That would be silly since this site is presumably designed to teach me Spanish..? 

How might a speaker differentiate an inquiry of How is X? from What is X like?  (Context is usually enough, but both questions are common so it'd be nice to know.)

Vosotros is used because the speaker is talking to more than one person. 

Also, i read that vos (singular) is only used in Latin America. 

Why do some of the verbs get tildas?

se lo quiero comprar becomes comprárselo

and 

se lo estamos decorando becomes estamos decorándoselo

Hola,

My translators consistently omit the "unos" before "270 huesos" in the phrase  "pero los bebés nacen con unos 270 huesos que se fusionan con el tiempo". Is it grammatically correct to exclude the unos ? Or is it included simply for aesthetic reasons?

Saludos

Kevin

In the kwiz, there was a phrase to complete: "Me vi tentada ..." I had selected tentado instead of tentada, which was marked wrong. The thing was that there was no indication, neither in the sentence itself or in the instructions, that the speaker was female. Why then would "Me vi tentado..." be incorrect?
