Hi,

Re: Your comment to John below:

"A separate lesson about "Esto" will be soon released, where it is tested separately because we understand it can be a bit confusing."

I did a quick search for this lesson, but without a title didn't find it, I was wondering if it was made and if so, how to find it. Thank you. Nicole

How can I tell if her is the direct or indirect object in a sentence like, I waited 2 hours for her. Or I waited for her for 2 hours.

La/le esperó dos horas.

Is 2 hours a direct object in, "I waited [for] 2 hours."?

Billion vs billón

My understanding is that in Spanish, “un billón” represents a different quantity from “a billion”in English, and this should not be directly translated, but is rather the same as “mil millón.”

Is my info wrong? Can there be regional variation?
