1)

ine: and you have to pay for the ticket.

I wrote: y tu debes pagar el boleto.

but none of the answers gave this as a possible answer.

Is there something I'm missing as I thought it means: you must...(do something) as in:

b. have to (SpanishDict.com)

Ya sabes que debes ponerte la corbata para ir al colegio.

You know you have to wear your tie to go to school.

2)

Also in the same exercise:

Line: I would like to visit Medellín next year.

I wrote: Me gustaría visitar Medellín el año proximo.

But none of the answers take this verb into account, but go with the verb: Querer: 

Quiero visitar Medellín el próximo año. 

Would this not also be a way of saying "I'd like to go" or should the English have been: "I want to go" and that there is 

possibly an error here?

Thank you,

The suitcase was very small and I couldn't put everything in it. : La maleta era muy pequeña y no pude poner ___ en ella.en ella.

How is the answer to this "todo" if the noun "la maleta" is feminine?

Hi, I have a question concerning this text: 

"at the beginning of the 17th century,"

a comienzos del siglo XVII, 

why is the plural used here and not the singular? 

What rules/lesson pertain to this?

Thank you, NIcole

In the article on masculine gender the example given is "Tiene dos hijos, Laura y Antonio."  The translation  is They have two children... "  I thought it the verb should be "Tienen" since there are two people being referred to.  Is the example correct and, if so, can you provide an explanation?

In this question, I knew that “opinión” was feminine, but I am unfamiliar with the idea of “mucha opinión.” Does this mean that someone has a very strong opinion about something? 

One of the possible answers for a kwiz question was "Es posible que hace frío hoy". Why wouldn't this be a correct sentence? 

"In addition" does not have the same meaning in English as "On the other hand"

Javier es bastante guapo. 

, es muy trabajador. (Javier is quite handsome. In addition, he is hardworing.)
