In the listening exercise is the phrase "para que la casa esté fresquita."
On the Futuro simple page (https://progress.lawlessspanish.com/revision/glossary/verb-tense-mood/futuro-simple) I couldn't find any page for "estar" in the future tense.
Is "esté" the 1st person singular of estar in futuro simple?
Or does it come from a different word?
Hola Inma,
I am much more “comfortable” with the alternative “se debe haber retrasado.” Is it not counterintuitive to add the reflexive pronoun to the verb haber?
Invariably we never put anything between the two verbs when using the pretérito perfecto but in this case we do. Is there a particular explanation / logic? I must be missing something!
Saludos. John

Greetings, I have a question about the sentence “Mientras, los otros niños hacíamos una fila…” If the subject is los otros niños, should the verbs in this sentence be conjugated in the third person plural? Hacían? Entraban? There is no indication that the narrator is including himself in the group of kids waiting in line. Please help me understand. Thank you.
Well, amigas, I'm convinced that reading along with the audio first time through is better than listenting without reading. With listening only, as soon as I hear a word I don't know, I'm distracted and it takes a couple more words to get back to comprehending the audio and if there are several new words it's a confusing mess!
When I read along with the audio the first time through I see the unknown words and know what to look for when I read it through without audio and do the pop up translations, then, next time as a read-along, it all makes sense.
I'd still like to have a speed control available.
"The text is fairly long, so the audio is split in two".
I only found one audio bar and nowhere to go for the second part. Is there actually another page for the read-along?
An interesting read-along but the speed was a little difficult to keep up with as I tried to sort out new vocab. Is it posssible to slow it down as on Youtube with a .75 or Normal choice of speed? That'd really be helpful to read along at the slower speed first time through, then go back and sort out the new vocab with the pop-ups (I figured how to do that in MS Word, today, but Heaven knows how you do it on a web-site!) It's a pity that the audio has so much reverberation/echo popping in and out on stereo which makes it difficult as well. But, still the best listening/read-along exercises anywhere.
The use of otorgar seemed a little strange to me; would entregar or dar also be suitable in the context?

Aren't both masculin and feminin acceptable? Tnx
