Accent placement

Accent placement

I believe the accent on "ecónomica" is incorrect. Shouldn't it be "económica"? Also, in many of these exercises it is very difficult to discern when a sentence ends versus when there is a pause based on voice tone.

Re voice tone and end of sentence...

Personally I am just ignoring errors of dictation on my part such as missed commas and full-stops. It's nigh impossible to judge where these are coming when you are listening to the audio in pieces like this, so I wouldn't worry about it. Give yourself full marks :-).

Hola Pati and David

With dictations. as you said, it's difficult sometimes to recognise the pause or the full stop, for example, so I wouldn't be too harsh with myself when giving yourself a mark. 

Saludos
