I'm failing to see why 'aquel' was marked incorrect in the test question about my parents visiting that village. The sentence doesn't state or imply any distance, so surely either aquel or ese should be acceptable.
En esta lección Yo pienso que hay un ejemplo de una pronunciación que no está correcta. Este ejemplo sigue: Suelo ir a natación todas las semanas. Específicamente es la palabra "todas". Por favor escucha esta palabra Y dígame si es correcto.
This seems like a useful phrase! A few questions...
• How common is it in Spanish?
• I guess we could just as easily use nouns like 'fracaso', 'dificultad' etc?
• It's similar to 'meet with success' in English of course, but would it be totally wrong to use 'con' in Spanish?
• And, does the noun usually carry the article? (conoce el éxito)
Saludos
Your translation of "There were many feminist movements" is given as "Hubieron muchos movimientos feministas" I had "Había muchos movimientos feministas". I can see why "hubo" would be preferred here, but I'm confused about "hubieron" Isn't the third person singular always used for "there was/were"?
Thank you
Hello, in another context, I have come across the expression:
No le di la mano hasta que no supe su nombre.
Would it also be correct, and have the same meaning, to omit the second "no" ?
And, in the 3rd example on this page, could one also say:
No vas a salir de casa hasta que no recojas tu habitación.
?
thanks!
I see that you have a full list of -iar verbs that will carry a stress mark in conjugation, and I wonder whether you have a similar list for -uar verbs. thanks
Here's the -iar verb list:

Hello
I searched to find the reply but was not successful. Could you let me know the reply to her question. Thank you. Nicole
This is Pati's question below:
"I'm unsure when (and when not) to use a + pronouns when also using an indirect object pronoun. I understand emphasis, but not real clear when to place emphasis. When I use it normally, it seems redundant. "
Would you please complete the lesson by commenting on whether they can ever be mixed? In the event I do, am I totally wrong? Thanks.
