Kwizbot Pero ahora no podría separame de mi "handbike" You pero ahora no podria separarme de mi handbike. I think wizbot is incorrect: from what I have learned so far, and having checked online, reflexive spanish verbs are in the infinitive form when followed by pronoun. Also per Spanishdict.com they say: “Reflexive pronouns are attached to the end of affirmative commands. For compound verbs like the present progressive, the pronoun can either be attached to the end of the infinitive or present participle or go before the conjugated verb.” Thank you! Nicole

Hola Nicole

This is a typo that we are correcting now. Kwizbot should say "separaRme".

Thanks for reporting this.

Gracias y un saludo
