This lesson needs a lot of work. If you put expressions with "desde hace" and "hace" in an online translator they ALL come back with the same sentence in English. It's nearly impossible to tell when you're supposed to use "desde hace." More examples are needed. In fact I can't even tell from the lesson why I would ever use "desde hace" when "hace" works just fine for the same meaning. Moreover I talk to natives every single day and no one has corrected me to say "desde hace" instead of "hace." So maybe I'm crazy but maybe this lesson needs work.
I would like to point out that the third example does not contain any fraction.
Hi,
My answer "algunas vacaciones largas" was marked wrong and "unas vacaciones largas" was given as the correct answer for "some long vacations." Why is algunas wrong? The lesson doesn’t address either unas or algunas.
Thanks. K
In the examples of "¿Quién prepara la fiesta a Sofía?" and "Nosotros les preparamos la cena a nuestros invitados."
Why use 'a' instead of 'para' (for) or 'por' (on behalf of)?

These statements actually aren’t disagreements at all. They are contrasts or comparisons. Disagreement with someone saying “I am X” would be replying with something like “No, you are not X.” Replying by saying “I am not X” is not disagreeing, but rather comparing yourself to the first speaker.
Buenas tardes,
Whenever I click on the link for the lesson on conjugating ‘Hacer’ en el Futuro Simple I am brought here for conjugating ‘Salir’ en el Futuro Simple.
I’d be most grateful if you could check this out of me.
In the example:
"Los que hayan reservado con antelación pueden ir a esa ventanilla"
why is it 'hayan' and not 'han'?
Four examples in the lesson. In the last three ,you could translate con lo que as "despite"but that would not make sense in the first example and seems not to fit the pattern.
No sé cómo no estás agotado con lo que corres.I am surprised you are not exhausted with all the running you do. ¿Vas a salir con lo que llueve?Are you going out despite all that rain? Me sorprende que esté tan delgado con lo que come.I can't believe how thin he is given how much he eats. Con lo que me ha costado este curso y ahora no es válido.After all the effort I made to do this course and now it turns out that it's not valid.Find your Spanish level for FREE
