Why is the accent on "cuando" in this answer? It doesn't appear to be a question. Is it considered an indirect sentence because the narrator is quoting the screen?

La pantalla no dice ________ aterriza el avión.The screen doesn't say when the plane is landing.

EDIT January 12: I see that there is a lesson in B1 about use of the accent. However, I'm still in A2, so maybe there could be a link to that lesson where I was in A2? It only said when to use the accent, not when not to. Thanks.

I had always understood that using the simple present tense or the compound "going to do something" worked exactly the same in English as Spanish. Something planned or intended for the future.  (Not the present continuous)

All  the above sentences mean exactly the same thing.

Hello,

I've lost how to get to the page/site where you have the Spanish text on one side, and the translation on the other side.  However, the text is invisible and you can refer to it as needed.  

How do I get those articles?

Thank you.

Hello, hope you are all well.

In this exercise the link that says (lesson) brings us here, however there is no lesson, nor any explanation as to the use of this particular phrase and another one below.  I did a search of these terms, but nothing came up.

I have two errors, that I would like to understand why they are errors to learn from them, i.e.

this one "Me hacen falta " and the one of " "aquí es la tarjeta:. (see below text)

CLIENT: I need two, one for me and one for my father. 

CLIENTA: Me hacen necesidad dos, una para mí y otra para mi padre. 

CLIENTA: Me hacen falta dos, una para mí y otra para mi padre. "

CLIENT: Here's the card. Thank you.

I looked for a comment in the exercise itself, but there was none, so I am writing this here.

Thank you for your help and stay well.

Hola Inma,

In your response (at the bottom of this thread) you mention: "that is seen later on for irregular adjectives." I did a search for "irregular adjectives" but did not find one on this particular topic.  Can you refer me to the lesson you had in mind in your answer?

Thank you?

On the quiz, the question was: Es ________ hora; ven más tarde.  

My answer was “una mala” and it was marked wrong.  It was supposed to be just “mala”. 

Could please explain why “una mala” is incorrect? It didn’t mention anything in the text about not using the article.  Thanks.

I’m confused, is there another way to determine when to use a direct or indirect pronoun? Eg, how do you apply “for whom, to whom” in this sentence: 

Me explicó su porqué pero no le creí. She explained her reason but I didn't believe her.
Muchas gracias,Shirley. 

In the quiz I just did, the question was: “¡Qué ________ tiene ese hombre!” and the answer was manazas.  Is there a reason that Mano with an “o” ending becomes Manazas and not Manazos?  Is it simply because Mano is feminine even though it ends with an “o”?
