How to say to remind someone of something with the verb recordarI think the answer to a test question is incorrect. Under the C1 topic of "How to say to remind someone of something with the verb recordar", the question is:
El olor de esta comida _________________ mi ninez.
The smell of that food reminds me of my childhood.
HINT: It conveys something that is brought to her mind.
(Sorry, I can't type the tilde above the n).
The accepted answer is "me recurerda a". I think it should be "me recuerda".
This is the lesson:

This is what it says:
The cases mentioned above using the preposition "a" are all to do with "finding some kind of similarity between two things or two people". This is when we use the preposition a.
However, there are cases when it still means "to remind of ..." but here the idea is that "something is brought to mind".
Would 2001 years be los dos miles y uno año or would mil still be singular.
hola
does this literally mean " its official number of inhabitants being xxx personas" ?
I am confused with the word order: can you also say " su cifra oficial siendo.xxx.." ?
I feel putting " siendo" at the beginning demands a number first . Such as " xxx siendo su cifra"
Could you elaborate ?
Muchas gracias!

What would you suggest as the "best" way to approach the lessons in kwizIQ. The initial test recommended B2. Is it best to study only the lessons suggested in the dashboard and trust the system to move me up and also to eventully fill in gaps from lower levels, or to also take tests for the lower levels and review those lessons, sort of jumping around from level to level, topic to topic.
Thanks!
Is it my imagination, or is the speaker saying "yo soy debajo" instead of "yo soy bajo"?

Hola,
The answer was "Voy a pedirle que me lleve a su casa" as translation of "I am going to ask her to take me home."
Why is the indirect object pronoun "le" used in this sentence and not "la" the direct object pronoun? I'm wondering whether it is something to do with the way that pedir is used e.g. "ask it of her."
Can you help?
Thanks John
Sin duda, un tema que debería haberse resuelto hace tiempo. Creo que para una pareja "casada" (realmente comprometida con una relación de por vida) después de la boda, el empleador de quien trabaje fuera de casa debería dividir el salario por dos y establecer dos cuentas de seguridad social y de jubilación. Así, independientemente de lo que ocurra más adelante, tanto el marido como la mujer estarán protegidos. La pareja debería compartir los gastos del hogar y decidir conjuntamente las compras importantes, disponiendo cada uno de un "dinero de bolsillo" mensual justo. Una cuenta de ahorro conjunta sería una buena idea.
