How long must I wait to re- take a quiz? I started low because I wanted a recap. I have gotten into bad habits but am understood. I missed a question on the last quiz and 10 minutes later I can not try again to move on? Really?
Hello,
I have come across this: "haber hecho" as in:
"After having done this... Después de haber hecho esto... "
and searched here for this structure and found this lesson, but not this form for "haber hecho" nor did I find anything online except one site calling it an idiom.
I was wondering what part of speech "haber hecho" is, I can't find it as a tense and have not been able to find its grammatical term. I don't think this is an "idiom". Thanks for your help in claryfing this.

Hi,
Which sentence softens the meaning of the word "serious"?HINT: serio = serious
Why does serio become seriecillo when it doesn't end with an e or a constant?
Is it common in Spanish to have two words seriecilla / seriecillo that are almost similar yet so different in meaning?
Thank you!
Why was the English translation of the Spanish question misleading?.. It should have been written as.... The lady waited for the doctor for 40 minutes...
"En el mundo hay muchos paises interesantes pero para mí, el más interesante es Australia."
My question is, why is could one also say "lo más interesante..." and still be correct? That is, use "lo" instead of "el"?
I am confused after getting an answer wrong in a test and then reviewing the subsequent lesson.
In a recent test, this sentence was given to complete. "No me gusto nada hacer ejercicio _____________." My answer was "después de comer," when in fact the answer was "después de comiendo."
I went back to review the lesson and the lesson states that after the preposition "de" comes the infinitive form of the verb to say the "ing" form of the verb. Now I am confused as to why my answer of "después de comer" is not correct. When do you use the infinitive? and when do you use the present participle (i.e. ending "ando" or "iendo") after the preposition de?
I would like to ak why is the accent in the audio on the second syllable?
Hi, I was a bit surprised to see this use of "gustar" as none of the books I have mention this usage i.e. Barron's 501 verbs, shows only that this verb is used in the third person, etc. Would it be a Iberian usage? I am in Canada and study Latin American Spanish [looking forward to that distinction in your program:) -- any news on that?]
Thank you. Nicole
