The speaker said dió rather than dio. 

Just a tad confusing although it probably happens in everyday speech.

In a previous question, mover was used in a present tense (Ella mueve...). However, in this quiz, mover was used in a reflexive tense (El perro se mueve). How do we know when to use or not use the reflexive tense? 

Hola - if the answer to the question is 1, would the ‘ser’ variant be ‘es’? Gracias!

I have a question. 

Ojalá llegaran a tiempo a la estación para coger el tren que sale esta noche a las diez. (clearly referring to the future)

Here llegaran is subjunctive because of Ojala, but why is it sale (preterite) instead of saldre (future)?

Por favor ayudarme! :)

Note that in El Futuro Simple, only the 3rd person form habrá is ever used on its own and it means there will be.

I don't understand the meaning of this statement. Can you explain and/or give an example?

I think the verb acabar can also be used to express finishing something. How does the use of acabar in Spanish differ when I want to say "I just..." vs. "I'm finishing..."

In the question

¡________ basura hay en esta casa!
Que mucha was an option offered that I chose and was marked wrong in favour of another option  cuánta.
Que mucha ...   translated in online dictionaries just fine.
Is there a difference ?
