Regarding "After I tried so hard...", couldn't "Despúes de que me esforzara tanto..." be another acceptable answer?

I think this might be more common in written Spanish?

may i summarise and say that igual de... que is used for non quantity or another way, quality comparisons only? for example, we can use tanto... como for 'tiene tanto dinero como yo', but we cant use it with igual de. non quantity or quality comparisons which are adjectives, adverbs.

I find this concept a bit confusing and awkward.  "Las joyas estaban siendo robadas por el ladron."  I feel it should be simpler, "las joyas fueron robadas por el ladron."

Thanks!

Maybe this is covered in a lesson I haven't gotten to yet, but can you explain how "ni siquiera" is functioning in this sentence? 

Thanks! 

comsumiendo alimentos sanos en ella . Ia refers to alimentos why not en ello?

Kind regards,

In Latin America we only use the imperfect of querer if we didn't get what we wanted, or if we got what we didn't want.  Otherwise we use the preterite.  Is it the same with the version of Spanish you teach?

Hello, in "Puedes hacer lo que quieras, no me importa.", why is it quieras and not quieres ? I got that it's the subjunctive but I don't understand why. Thanks !

Great exercise, it would be even better if the suggested words to check before starting the exercise could be viewed translated directly here without the need to go to extra vocabulary book/web. Thanks

The question (with no other information provided) is "Drive safely!.  One of the options is "Conducir con cuidado".There is another lesson on Requests / Commands / instructions where if I have got it right the infinitive is used without the preopisiton "a"..  Why doies it not work in this instance?
