Hi and thanks for all your work. This is a good breakdown however I still remain confused when two nouns don't require - de- between them
For example in a book I'm reading " el êpico fracas de Arturo Zamora" Theres a part that that says
Consejo ciudadano. ( citizen council)
This isn't the first time two nouns are next to each other without a " De" inbetween but I don't see the difference between this and something like
La sopa de Pollo
In this example:
La familia de María está contenta. María's family are happy. [U.S: is happy]
Está is singular, so wouldn't it also be translated as "is"?
"El hemisferio meridional" is an accepted (though perhaps less common) equivalent of "southern hemisphere." Perhaps it could be added as a correct answer.
Why was "partido" (for "game") the correct usage in the first part of the last sentence, but then "juego" (for "game") was correct in the latter part of that same sentence?

Nowhere in there does it list "divertir"
I'm unclear on why it wasn't divierten like it would have been "disfrutan"
With body parts the possessive pronoun often is not used. E.g me duele el cuerpo. My body hurts. Why not in this text?
I’ve started to get kwiz questions about specific instances of the imperative, but I am very unfamiliar with it. Could you link me to the introductory lessons/material you have about forming the imperative? Thanks
"Los países en la cumbre presentaron sus propuestas ________ las catástrofes naturales."
In this question, the correct answer is ante. Could "frente a" be another option here?
"Los países en la cumbre presentaron sus propuestas frente a las catástrofes naturales."
Also, could you either add a section about frente to this lesson or create a lesson about frente?
