reflexive verbs versus passive "se"Is there an example of a use of tardarse that is not in the third person? If not, is it a reflexive verb really?

gran vs. grande

In this exercise, the adjective "gran" has been placed BEFORE the noun "siesta". To me, that suggests that the nap was "great", "wonderful", "marvelous", etc. as opposed to big, (i.e., long) in which case, I think that the adjective "grande" would be used and placed BEHIND the noun "siesta". However, in the English translation, I think I remember the word "big" being used (I'm not absolutely positive about this). Would you care to comment on this issue?

Ser /estar test questions

I have just started learning about Preterito indefinido and found that one question in the test required a preterito imperfecto answer which I have not yet learned. It is rather confusing .

Is there any way I can go back over tests I have taken as a review. I think I could learn more about sentence structure. Thank you.

somos o son Geminis are very contradictory HINT: The Spanish word for "Gemini" is not capitalised. Repuesta correcta es: Los géminis son muy contradictorios pero son creativos.

using pronouns with llamarseIn the grammar section of llamas it says about pronouns: it is actually more common to drop them, so "Ella se llama Clara" = "Se llama Clara".

I forgot to drop it the first time, so I got a "nearly correct". The second time I dropped it, and it was still "nearly correct". - This I don't understand...
