Happy birthday to you.  Why is ti used and not te?   I can’t find a lesson on the use of ti instead of te. For instance para ti

Hi, thanks for all your answers.

What does Aún así (both accented) mean in Concierto de Año Nuevo? Thanks,

Shirley. 

I would have thought that A had similar structure to B, as in action#1 was interrupted by action#2:

A: Te ________ hasta que me aburrí y me fui.

I was waiting for you until I got bored and left

B: Ella estaba lavándose el pelo cuando él llegó.

She was washing her hair when he arrived.

But the answer to A was “estuve esperando” not “estaba esperando.”

Does it mean that in B the woman didn’t stop washing her hair even the man arrived, but in A the waiting totally completed?

It appears to me that the better answer for "we have been" would be "hemos estado" rather than "hemos ido," which seems to me to say "we have gone."  In English, there is a difference between "been" and "gone."  Could you please advise.  Thank you.

Is there a difference between using ´en´ and ´por´.

For example ´voy a hacerlo por/en la mañana´?

Los adultos compran este calendario para los niños porque tienen chocolates y son deliciosos.

Tienen is plural while calendario is singular. So who have the chocolates? The adults or the children? Neither makes sense.

This sentence is funny in a way because you could read as the children have chocolates and the children are delicious. I guess the adults buy the calendar to lull the children, to capture them and eat them. Yum, delicious children:-)

I wonder if there is an error in this question:

Este hotel, ________ inauguración fue ayer, va a recibir muchos turistas alemanes.

I think that the answer should be cuyo (because hotel is a masculine noun), but the Kwiziq answer on the test question is cuya.  Is this a mistake on Kwiziq's part, or am I not understanding something?
