Acabar is a tough verb for me. It has multiple meanings depending on the context. Is there a lesson on acabar and acabarse? I know that it depends on the use of prepositions too. Thank you

I could only watch this once , when I tried to watch it again I got a load of miscellaneous crap from you tube and more Wipp Express ads. Not very easy to use or helpful.
Hi Susan, this is a Youtube feature, if you look at the bottom left the play icon changes to a round arrow when the video is over, and you can replay the same video. If for any reason this does not work for you try refreshing the page (F5).

I like this exercise. It helps me improve my listening and comprehension skills. Thanks, Shui and team!
I also like that is it short but packed with a few new vocabulary and grammar points for me to learn. It doesn't overwhelm. It is great for quick study sessions for busy people like me! 👍 👏
