How can I know which form of the ordinal number to use? For example, twelfth has three forms. Are there particular circumstances when one is called for in lieu of another?

Sorry for not writing in Spanish. I´m not there yet.W

Why are objects doubled?

"Le hemos explicado a ella el problema." Seems redundant. Is it a special case, or a constant rule?

Éstas vs. Estas

I am confused by when to use éstas with a tilde and when not to. And would this sentence work without using either? Just saying ...zonas de ocio sino que también permiten a la población...

Además, las zonas verdes no son consideradas exclusivamente como zonas de ocio sino que éstas también permiten a la población estudiar horticultura.

Afectar transitive verb

Buenas días

I understand Afectar is a transitive verb, which requires a direct object (without a preposition).

I saw these sentences:

La nueva ley no afecta al pequeño empresario.

La falta de oxígeno afecta al cerebro.

I'm curious to know why these two sentences use a preposition "a".

Muchas gracias

por vs para

Hello! Por or para: the eternal question, right? I'm wondering about the phrase "for future generations" in the final sentence. If that phrase were interpreted as "for the benefit of future generations" or "for the sake of future generations," would "por" be correct? Or is "para" the only correct option regardless? Thank you!

Tener - Moving Past a Basic Subject

I can conjugate Tener in the present tense while asleep. I can conjugate Tener in the present tense if I was no longer alive. Why does this bot want me to continue to practice conjugating Tener in the present tense? How do I move past a subject. This is a waste of time. Thanks for your help.

Las Islas Carnarias_____en el oceano atlanticoYou are using exceptions of the rules to trick students. You can't move islands, so it makes sense to use "son en el oceano atlantico" and you know all A1 students will get that question wrong.
