The answer appears to treat estar as a verb like gustar.  It doesn´t appear as such in your list.  What am I missing?

I got confused with the explanation as you highlighted that ninguno  is an ind pronoun which cant be used with a noun but gave no examples of the use of the ninguno whereas the actual test question 20 is all about the correct indefinite adjective ie ninguna playa which I got wrong. As a beginner one would naturally be forgiven thinking that there is a family of masculine and feminine indefinite adjectives but this appears wrong as the "apparent masc version is ninguno  BUT it is an indefinte pronoun so would one look at a text grammar book as I could not resolve this/ Why mix up the tip on the same page??

Why is “looking for solutions for their diseases” translated in the singular “su enfermedad” instead of the plural “sus enfermedades”? Thank you. 

I was marked as incorrect for not capitalizing the first letter in the sentence. Are the quizzes scored that harshly? I realize that sentences begin with upper case letters, just didn’t expect on these less than formal settings to be scored on case sensitivity.

Still struggling with this (and I can see I am not alone based on some comments, lol). Can I share my thinking and you tell me where I am making my mistake? On the quiz the question was: El policía persiguió al ladrón ________ no lo atrapó. (The policeman chased the thief but he didn't catch him. I went back and forth between "pero" and "sino que" for quite a while!  I thought "pero" would work because it makes a contrast (chased / caught). But, then I noted the change in verbs before and after "but," (persiguio / atrapo) and thus used "sino que." This issue, where I feel a note a second verb is one of the largest reasons I keep getting this wrong. How should I be approaching this differently? Thanks as always for your help! PS - I didn't use proper accents above as when I do my computer kicks me out of this program!

One of the test questions was about the word order for this phrase and the following is considered incorrect: Por favor Marta, les trae unas copas de vino. Based on this lesson, I thought that the indirect object pronoun (les) could be placed before or after the imperative (i.e. traéles or les trae). Can you please explain the difference?

The correct answer here shows both verbs in imperfect tense. Why is using preterite in the first clause and imperfect in the second clause incorrect? The lesson shows both examples in the past tense.

Does anyone here run a conversation group to practice lives zoom etc.? I'm not looking to join tandem or meetup.

Hi, my initial thought was that we would rather use an article before the noun in the following sentence: "...que el candidato conozca el derecho internacional". Could you please explain?
