I stumble over pero, sino que and sino and the following example is a good one to drive me crazy.
Elia no va a empezar el curso este año ________ va a tener un año sabático.
Pero vs Sino Que.
For the example above both „pero“ and as weln „sino que“ were flagged as correct and wrong in Kwiziq!
I have checked the rules more than once and verified that with OpenAI, Mistral AI, Claude, etc and all came across with rules and explanations and all of the AI explained to use pero and when I asked again they said use sino que. So it would be nice to get your answer on it and to correct and remove the wrong answers.
Thanks,
Bernd
I had the following "En España no siempre dormimos siesta" and I looked it up and AI said the response with siesta at the end is somewhat awkward and less native is that correct?
I think this lesson could be improved by including some information about using ser + para + the due date. I was thrown off by that in one of the quiz questions because even knowing to use "para" for a due date, using "ser para" to say something like "is due by" is not very clear or obvious.
Looks like the plural "skirts" can take both a singular and plural for colors. Is that true of other clothing?
Hola,
Why doesn't the topic include the relative pronoun "lo que"?
Why is the future/perfect future sometimes used for the same reason one could use conditional/perfect conditional?
Can you please speed up and make the replay of these writing exercises with more natural and less stilted voice? The accent is great but the replay sound unnaturally slow.
On the question that starts "Te quejas mucho,…" the hint says it's a list of complaints, but the things that are listed don't seem like complaints to me. I mean, who complains that someone doesn't snore? Maybe it's good to make the sentences non-sensical to emphasize the grammatical structure. Duolingo used to do that all the time, with horses cleaning the kitchen and cats moving the furniture…
Why in this sentence usted is placed after tiene? "¿Tiene usted familia en el pueblo?" Shouldn't be, Usted tiene?
