Hola,

My online translator gives 'el campo nos aburre' for 'the countryside bores me'.

Is this an acceptable translation?

Thanks.

Saludos,

Colin

Hi, I think the translation for 12 is wrong, it's not saying anything about being "key":

What's the difference between "que" and "quien"

I don't understand why this is wrong:

"Los fontaneros, ________ vienen esta tarde, van a arreglar el grifo."

Why is it "que" insteda of "quien"?

My quiz included the example: 'Éramos nosotros los que llamamos a la puerta.'

Why is the pronoun positioned after the conjugated verb in this case?

 It says ' Do you prefer to wait sitting or standing' and I had to fill in the gap for prefer/preferir.

 ' Usted prefiere esperar de pie o sentado?' 

I don't understand how prefiere is the answer and not prefieres

Is the preposition "a" used for other cases in Spanish besides expressing a part of the day?

Obtuve más de lo que quería. (I got more than I wanted.)

This sentence seems to require más de, though it is a comparison, and no numbers are involved. Can you explain this, please?

"El hemisferio meridional" is an accepted (though perhaps less common) equivalent of "southern hemisphere." Perhaps it could be added as a correct answer.
