Lyn F.A2Kwiziq Q&A regular contributor

Using demonstrative pronouns: este/esta & sacamos/tomamosTomamos esa foto en Madrid pero tomamos éste en Barcelona.

Please, why is este marked wrong and esta given as the correct one? I can't work out why foto (masc) has esta (female) and not este. Is it because its BarcelonA?

And why sacamos and not tomamos?

Gracias.

Is there any difference in pronunciation between "cazé" and "cacé"?

I'm thinking they should sound the same in both peninsular and Latin American Spanish. If that's true then why the spelling change?

In the explanation, you use Tú when referring to Mamá and Usted when referring to Madre. In the Kwiz, you had a question with “father”. How can we

know whether tu or usted is required. Could it not be either, depending on the formality, which is not stated?

Conjugating

For this lesson, would it be correct to say that you generally conjugate the verbs ending in "ar" to "aba" (e.g. hablar becomes hablaba) and that you conjugate verbs ending in "er" and "ir" to "ía" (e.g. soler becomes solía)?
