Spanish language Q&A Forum

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?

I see that, at the bottom of this lesson, there's a note that says what "pluscamperfecto" refers to. It's a very simple explanation -- to talk about something that had happened. 

It would be SO helpful to have these short explanations of what a given grammar term means at the TOP of the lesson, just below the term for the lesson. I look at all these grammar terms and my eyes cross. I have no idea what they mean and I start to feel like there is no way I can learn Spanish because I'm so lost in all these terms. Taking the time to learn grammar terms seems like a tedious distraction from just learning to speak Spanish: a roadblock.

It's not uncommon for people in the US to have never learned grammar, so on behalf of myself, and all the mediocre public school graduates, I implore you: move the explanation for what a grammar term is to the top of the lesson. It's such a simple change and will make learning so much more accessible and these lessons so much more meaningful. 

¡Muchas gracias!

Would it be incorrect to say, "No me gustan los tatuajes y por eso no tengo nada" instead of ninguno?

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.

Son muy populares los siguientes platos:  The following dishes are very important

I am confused as to why this sentence is ordered in this way. Why does Los siguientes platos precede son muy populares?

thanks 

Este es el tercer coche que compro este año. •

This is the third car I have bought this year.

I thought you don't need to use the personal a with animals although it's commonly used with pets. Is that so? So couldn't it be "vio los elefantes"?
