Hola,

re: punctuation:

Spanish dictation exercise SOUTH SUMMIT (A1)

Re: sentence in test: "en Madrid Barcelona Málaga Méjico y Colombia. "

I was wondering why there are no commas, as usually these would take commas? 

Also could you direct me to lessons on punctuation, it seems to be different than French and/or English.

I did a search but nothing came up.

Thank you, Nicole

Some verbs in the preterite indefinido have tildes and some don't. Is there a rule for when they are used or not used, as i'm finding it difficult to remember when to use them?

I would like to sk when do we use subjuntivo after cuando?

Hi,

How do I use estados unidos with todo?

Shouldn’t ‘tengo’ in the first line be ‘tenga’ in the subjunctive? Why isn’t it? 

With es que we introduce a cause which is often at the same time a "justification or an excuse" for doing something or having done something.Direct from lesson

What is “As I don’t have any money”  if it not a justification?

What is “As I don’t have any money if it is not the cause”

IT POOR TEACHING IF YOU GIVE AMBIGUOUS QUESTIONS AND THE MARK THEM WRONG   

I have the same comments about the questions on Alguno  

This is not the focus of the lesson, but in the above example I would have expected to see “la pierna.” Is “mi” more common with this particular body part, or is it just adding some kind of emphasis here?

Hola

1.Mi madre prepara el almuerzo a la una y media.My mum prepares lunch at half past one.
Do you have to say "el almuerzo" instead of just "almuerzo"?
2.Salgo de casa a las ocho en punto.I leave the house at eight o'clock precisely.
why is it "casa" instead of "la casa"?
Gracias,Fred

Hi,

I noticed that the test is missing in this lesson.

I would also like to ask whether one could say vigilando a todo lo que pasa/vigilando a todo quien pasa?

thank you
