Él pudo irse de vacaciones

Hi,

In the above sentence could 'ir' replace 'irse'? If not, why not?

What is the meaning of 'irse' if not 'to go'? And, when would it be used?

Thank you.

Conjugations

Hola,

In the introduction it states ...."all the other endings are the same as regular er verbs íste, ímos, ísteis."

Is this correct? Aren't the ending of regular er verbs iste, imos and isteis all without the accent?

Or am i missing something?

Thanks.

Word order

Is there a lesson on, or can you talk a little bit about word order? An example says “esta era mí antigua escuela”. I would have said “escuela antigua“. Why is the adjective in front of the noun in this case? Gracias!

Do we need a DO pronoun with other pronouns?

This is a good topic. Do we need a Direct Object pronoun with other pronouns, as in the following:

- (Les) saludé a todos.

- (La) busco a alguien.

- No (lo) ha visto a nadie.

Thanks.
