Taking forgetting into account?

Do levels degrade over time? (Like, if I’m 100% on A0 right now, will that go down over time so that I’m forced to review as I forget?) If not, I think that’s an important feature to add.

Aun - as intensifier?

Could you please include a few examples in the lesson that show how “aun” works in phrases like “aun más bonito.” I’m finding it harder to keep straight without having examples - I have to switch my brain to English & try to translate back, and I’m still getting it wrong!

"Hoy no he quedado con nadie" "I am not meeting anyone today" is the right answer. Why is it not "I haven't met anyone today" please?

Sentence: por las tardes

Hello,

I was wondering why the sentence "in the evening..." is translated with "por laS tardeS...". Why is it plural here? Would "por la tarde" also be correct?

Thanks!

Los vecinos cuelgan macetas con flores hermosas

Hi!

So I used caer instead of colgar because I remembered caer being used as "to suspend" somewhere. Does it sound odd/wrong to use it like that?

Thank you!

Edit after I found the answer: Caer is INTRANSITIVE, can't use it like that. I found examples of how it works when used as "hang", but your thoughts are always appreciated!

Formal use? and using peoples names

Hola,

1. None of the examples use 'usted' or 'ustedes'. Can you use those or is gustar just not used in a formal way?

2. What if I want to say something like "Sarah likes David"? Do I still have to include the indirect pronoun? And use "a xxx" for the name of the person doing the liking?

like: "David le gusta a Sarah"

Fred.

Con and Para

In this question, would both of these answers be correct for: How would you say "The little girls who I went to the park with were your daughters."?

Las niñas con las que fui al parque eran tus hijas.

Las niñas para las que fui al parque eran tus hijas.
