Why ot is duro, not dura? Duro for trabajo??

internacional y internacionalmente - surely "mente" needs to suffixed to internacional también, no?

Me gusta este trabajo - definitely says "Me gusta A este trabajo"

It would be so much nicer if one didn't need to scroll up and down the page during the exercise. Surely by resizing some of the components on the screen it should be possible to dispense with the need to scroll between each segment of the exercise, no?

Of course, if a cell phone is used that might cause more scrolling etc but on a 14" laptop screen it should be easy enough to presnet a page that's more concise . . .

Hello!  Por or para: the eternal question, right?  I'm wondering about the phrase "for future generations" in the final sentence.  If that phrase were interpreted as "for the benefit of future generations" or "for the sake of future generations," would "por" be correct?  Or is "para" the only correct option regardless?  Thank you!

When would be appropriate to use formal and informal second person?

For context, I'm planning to speak mostly with my Mexican family members, many that I'll be meeting for the first time or for the first time in many years. Most of them are older than me (I have one younger brother who speaks mostly Spanish). Would it be better to speak formally to the older family members, or informally because they're family?

Would you start formally with strangers (esp. those who are older) and then at some point be able to drop formality as you become closer to people, or as they express to you that it's okay (similar to Korean and Japanese)?

Is "hay" only for present tense? 

Are there different words for "there were" and "there will be"?

This very lesson says that 'normalmente' signals the simple present, the so-called correct answer was the progressive. 

Hola,
Me confunde mucho el uso de ¨ser¨y ¨estar¨ en la voz pasiva. ¿Podrían ustedes aclararlo?
Gracias.

I would like to find the lessons that correlate to the 'bad' areas of my brainmap, to add them to a notebook. In a perfect world, I would just click on the brainmap area to get to them, but as this isn't possible, what's the quickest way to find them please?
