I cannot hear the audio - it is not working in any browser.

I have to say the use of pronouns (and to a lesser degree prepositions) is one of the most challenging parts of learning Spanish I have experienced thus far.  I am REALLY struggling on this!! If you look at my small (two question) quizzes I do fine, but when I take a ten point quiz I do very poorly on this topic.  I AM trying!  I need to go very slowly, using tools like "to whom, for whom" is the action taken to find the indirect pronoun answer but NOTHING is coming naturally at this point. Please don't take this as whining before giving up.... I am not giving up!  Anything worth having requires work so I am forging on. I just wonder... am I being unusually dumb on this?! Do any (most?) other students at my level struggle this hard on the pronoun (preposition) usage topic? As always I need to say how much I love Kwiziq and am so grateful to have found it! I'll get this sooner or later (but any other tricks to help me would sure be welcome!!). 

I think this lesson would be better if it started with an explanation of what an impersonal expression is.

Hello, i am confused by this paragraph below: it states that this rule is relevant when there are direct or indirect pronouns in a sentence with a conjugated verb that is followed by an infinitive or a present participle but then provides an example that has a gerund after the conjugated verb and no example with a present participle. Is this an error?


When there are direct and indirect object pronouns in a sentence with a conjugated verb that is followed by an infinitive or a present participle, 

How do you pronounce the word “vivo” in other words the letter “v”?

This is from an example in a lesson.  the response given is:  Desde pequeño.  That seems incomplete to me.  Would it be correct to say: Desde era pequeño.  

I didn't realize that the entire proper noun is not capitalized or even just the nouns in the name. Apparently only the first word is?

Ps, I didn't see a response yet to the pair of questions regarding the use of the el/lo pronoun quandary.

Hi Inma,

In the case where aunque + subjunctive is used to refer to a past action that is background information to both the speaker and the listener, is there a part of the "WEIRDO" acronym (wishes, emotions, impersonal expressions, etc.) that this would correspond to, or does this fall outside of those common categories of subjunctive uses?
