Is there a reason why there's only one that can be played? I noticed this on some of the other vocab lists as well. I find listening helpful, so hope this can updated!
Hi there, I am a little confused as there appears to be inconsistencies in the colouring of letters which are irregular in the verb tables.
In this table only the Z is red, I understand that the letter Z is the main focus of the lesson, however almost all of this verb is irregular, and only highlighting the Z makes me question myself.
In other lessons I have seen emphasis with both red and blue, but there doesn't appear to be a regular pattern, which also casts doubt on my learning.
I know it may be a big job, but would it be possible to devise a standard practice, and then implement? Maybe a job for a Spanish intern :-)
Buenas tardes Inma,
Which do you find is the more commonly used of the two forms? Is it down to personal choice as to whether one uses the regular or irregular form?
Gracias

Hola,
I've noticed in this construction that desde is used at the end of the sentences, and within the middle of the construction it is not.
Trying to extend my learning with the following example
Llevaba cinco años sin fumar.
Could you say
Llevaba sin fumar desde 2015
Llevaba sin fumar desde hace cinco años
?
I'm thinking in terms of the construction when there is a specific date in mind (2015), compared to the 'ongoing' desde hace without a specific date.
Gracias,
The professor gives the certificate TO ME, looks like a indirect object pronoun ie me te le nos os les. Yet the lesson uses mi an adjectival pronoun?? In the test the answer requires Ella a subject pronoun as do some of the examples.
Regarding the hints in the tests. Sometimes the hint says to conjugate in "El pretérito Perfecto Compuesto" and other times just "El pretérito Perfecto". If I enter El pretérito Perfecto simple it's incorrect. The study buttons take you to the same lesson, and seem to be asking for the same answer, am I missing something?
Hola Shui,
I'm a bit confused with the future "podrá". I would expected "podría" or "pudiera". Can you please explain? Is there a lesson about hypothetical clauses?
Muchas gracias

Hola,
Am I right in thinking this construction uses the present tense to represent ‘have’ and the imperfect tense to represent ‘had’, and that no other tense is used?
Gracias,
It says that I got this wrong, but I don't understand why (I put hubiese instead of habría)
Si no hubieran insistido tanto yo no los ________ a cenar.If they hadn't insisted so much I wouldn't have invited them for dinner.habría invitadohubiese invitadoHi,
I find some of the recorded examples too fast to clearly hear the pronunciation. Is there a way of slowing it on replay?
This leads to another question: when Spanish is spoken quickly, can some of the sounds be omitted or words run together.
Thank you.
