Ustedes ________ muy felices como pareja.You used to be very happy as a couple.
For this lesson, would it be correct to say that you generally conjugate the verbs ending in "ar" to "aba" (e.g. hablar becomes hablaba) and that you conjugate verbs ending in "er" and "ir" to "ía" (e.g. soler becomes solía)?
In this lesson " Repetition of indirect object pronouns with verbs (general)
I was reading the questions from "Papi" and did not see a reply for his last question of 13 January 2019.
Is there a reply somewhere? I was surprised not to see it here.
This topic is so very confusing, and I hope there will be more lessons/exercices for this topic. Thank you.

Thank you.
Esta lección me hizo reír...
As a very small child, I remember hearing the sentence, ¿Cómo que no? quite often. Perhaps a response to a refusal to do something? I don't think I was a disobedient toddler, so it must have been one of my siblings being a bit naughty, un poco rebelde o algo asi, haha ;))
The Larousse Spanish Dictionary shows: -3. (en frases) ¡a mí qué! so what?, why should I care?; para mí: (yo creo) as far as I'm concerned, in my opinion; por mí: as far as I'm concerned; por mí, no hay inconveniente it's fine by me
How do we get to the: para mí: I have a feeling that ?
Even after the lengthy explanation it's still unclear.
Por mí que cierren el cine. why should I care if the close down the cinema =Por mí si ellos cierren el cine?
No?
The subjunctive is used in "Cuando tus hermanos lleguen será muy tarde." even though there is no intention to "make something happen" in the future. Maybe that description should be added to, to make it more clear that future things that will happen anyway (there is no intent to change things) also trigger the subjunctive after "cuando"?
In this exercise you give the statement: "Me gustas mucho." In all the info at this site I only see gusta and gustan used (singular and plural) which I understand. Could you please explain this form of guitar?
I was completely thrown by the inclusion of the words "About to".
Iba a avisarte would just mean "I was going to warn you"
I was about to warn you should surely be: "Estaba a punto de advertirte" Not given as an option

No quiero que ________ el dinero que te he dado.I don't want you accidently losing the money I gave you.
The answer se te pierda.
Just a thought! Perhaps point out the use of the subjunctive in this example.
