When I put Yo entiendo instead of just Entiendo it was marked incorrect. Is it my error or a program error ?

Hola Inma,

Por favor, me puedes explicar esta, 'por no decir...'. Tengo una idea, pues más o menos, pero no estoy segura. 

Gracias y saludos. Sé que es tarde...Feliz Año Nuevo:))

En la oración: Espero que mi madre COCINE un pavo asado riquisimo con un relleno hecho de pan y maiz de salvia. What is the conjugation of "cocine", please? 

cooks, has cooked, will have cooked

Although I understand this lesson, the quiz question  "What is the gender of the word ____" seems to vague.  My understanding is that, with living things, the gender of the word is determined by the gender of the person/animal etc it refers to.  Therefore, without a pronoun or phrase to clarify, it seems to me the correct answer should be "don't know".  Obviously, except in some very rare situations, "both" seems inaccurate.  Would it be more "on point" to ask thequestion using a phrase?

ayyyyy necesitamos otra parte para saber que pasara con Angela y Robertooo

Hello, thanks for this excellent tool for learning Spanish!

My question is about the use of pero in a second sentence.  Should this be explained as a second clause rather than a second sentence since the examples use one sentence?

Hello, I am not clear why “estaba” is used (imperfecto) but all the other verbs are in the pretérito tense. I have read all the lessons on this subject but still nearly always get the tense wrong. I think the guidance is that the pretérito is used when there is a specific beginning and end - but is that not the case with “mucha gente no estaba de acuerdo”?  Many thanks, Tony
