Si quiero enviar a mi hijo a mi hermana, sí puedo decirle a mi mujer "Voy a enviarselo" pero no puedo decirle a mi hijo "Voy a enviarlete". Ambas oraciones son de forma verbo+enclítico de OI+enclítico de OD. ¿Qué hace que una sea correcta y la otra no lo sea? (Intento que se=hermana, lo=hijo, le=hermana, te=hijo.)

Why is yo me sumerjo los manos wrong here ?  

This sentence was marked as incorrect:

Cuando ella abra sus regalos en navidad a menudo tiene perfume.

The english translation was that often when she opens presents she gets perfume. Doesn't that denote possibility in the future and so it should be subjunctive?

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..."

the English translation of "la puedes cocinar a la plancha" is rendered as "you can cook it on the plancha".  Is "plancha" an English word? I have never heard it before and I don't know what it means.  I looked it up and it says "flat top grill".  I'm not even sure what that is.  Is "plancha" a word that is used in Brittish English?

I am a little confused with terminology. Are Preterite Indefinido and Preterite Perfecto the same thing? As others have highlighted, I am confused with the past perfect and preterite perfect. 

Using esquiar as an example: I skied = Yo esquié; I have skied =  He esquiado; I used to ski = Yo esquiaba; I have been skiing = Yo estaba esquiado. Am I wrong with these examples?

Why isn't this "Pónganselo aquí en esta habitción para nosotros, por favor."?

After all, the reflexive pronoun for the third person plural imperative of poner is se.

This is a helpful list.  Would you be able to add the infinitive forms, as you did with the table for the form "-yendo"?
