Spanish language Q&A Forum

>In sentences where the indirect object is represented by "a + pronoun", and it is at the beginning of the sentence, for example  "a mí, a tí, a ella", it is necessary to repeat the indirect object by using the "short" pronoun (me, te, le, nos, os, les) in the same sentence.

I think this should be reworded. That "and it is at the beginning of the sentence" makes it seem like you don't need the shrot pronoun if you put the "a + pronoun" elsewhere in the sentence. I know one of the examples and the little tip box later clarify this, but I still think rewording that paragraph would help. 

In the example "Los turistas fueron a El Salvador." Why isn't it "LAS turistas?"

I´m having fluctuating percentages for topics that I´ve created a notebook for and was correct on for over 30 times in a row. The percentage goes up and down but never significantly improves, even after getting them correct 10 times in a row it will drop from 97% to 91%. Can the percentages consistently reflect progress?

The two topics in particular are:

A0: Using vivo en + [city/country/region] to say where you live in Spanish

A0: How to say I have / you have in Spanish (possession)

Hello,

I have these sentences from the exercise:

1. In addition, they improve colds.   Además, mejoran los resfriados 

2. They have vitamins and minerals.  y tienen vitaminas y minerales

In sentence 1, though the English is 'colds' (without the article), the Spanish sentence has los resfriados

In sentence 2, both the English and Spanish do NOT have the articles.

Is there a rule for when to use the articles? Can you point me to some info?

Thank you

Amrutha
