Durante ese tiempo - the answer given is to use either tiempo or periodo. how about época?

Quiz statement:  Esa profesora explicaba muy bien pero esta nos aprobaba fácilmente.

My translation: That teacher explained things very well but this one passed us easily.

Quiz translation: That teacher explained things very well but with this one we passed [the subject] easily.

How I would translate that back into Spanish: Esa profesora explicaba muy bien pero, con esta, aprobamos fácilmente.

The translation of the second clause seems to change the focus, with the subject being the teacher (passing the students easily). I realize it’s subtle but do you think it makes a difference? Did the second teacher go easy on the students or did they just connect better with her teaching?

Hola Foro y los expertos

Tengo una pregunta a propósito de la part de la oración  'pero he de insistir en que vayas a Córdoba'. 

Por qué, usamos 'en' aquí.  No es  possible decirlo igualmente sin 'en', 'pero he de insistir que vayas a Córdoba'. 

Hola,

Not sure I’m entirely clear on this usage...

I get the ‘to what’... but I was surprised that it also means ‘at what’ in the mini-quiz (thinking that was more naturally ‘en qué’). Don’t think I saw this referenced in the lesson?

Is that the extent of it? - use ‘a qué’ for:

- To what

- At what

Gracias,

It would be great to have the english version as well so it is easier to understand unfamiliar words.

Hola Inma,

I really enjoyed this 'reader'. I'm a big Rosalía fan! 

I'm just curious about the 'artistas plásticos' mentioned in this article. Is this simply describing artists that create art from plastic? 

Gracias :)
