So, Juan was supplying both sides of the Revolution with his harina tortillas and also took them across the Rio Grande? I always wondered where Taco John's restaurants came from! Or was that Taco Bell's?
There's a question about how we went to an Indian restaurant and ate everything because it was very rich. The thing they're eating is "food," but the answer wanted you to use "todo." They had it agree with the adjective of rich, but there's nothing that indicates a masculine noun.
I think 55% and 37% should be written in letters for the sake of pronouncing "porcentaje"
Is there a lesson or a table on conjugating these? Especially Traer could use some illumination in this regard, I don't recall seeing the kinds of conjugation as shown in the examples for traer. Thanks.
why don´t we use the preterite imperfect or preterite, as the event has happened already in the past and the preterite perfect gives some sense that it is still continuing?
Shouldn't there be the word "alrededor" since the English translation is "around the lounge"?
Hi there, I have (belatedly) discovered Notebooks and am finding these a great way to test myself across different levels and hone in on my weak points. I've added a load of lessons, but it feels like it's focussing very much on the higher level (B2) ones. I want to interleave my practice with my weak points from A2 and B1 too.
Question: how does it decide which lessons to test from a notebook? Is it random? Or based on your current %? Or something else?
Also, I'd LOVE a feature where it just quizzes you from your weakest lessons *of those you have already been quizzed on*, across all levels. Basically that's what I'm trying to achieve.
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)
Missing word - Don't pay for those for him, or Don't buy those for him, maybe?
Hello. The following example in this lesson threw me off: "After the party we will call a taxi" (Despues de fiesta llamamos un taxi). My question is why was the present tense ("llamamos"), and not the future tense ("llamaremos"), used here? My guess is that the future time is very short (i.e., right after the party). If this is correct, is there a general rule for a given time frame that would require use of the future tense? Thank you for any clarification.
