I would like to find the lessons that correlate to the 'bad' areas of my brainmap, to add them to a notebook. In a perfect world, I would just click on the brainmap area to get to them, but as this isn't possible, what's the quickest way to find them please?

Is it not correct to say "las nueces" in the sentence translated from "I like eating nuts and honey?"

The last exclamation soujnds like: ¡Eh es estupendo! as though there is something before the es.

The test question was to conjugate maldecir into the "they" form but no explanation of how to do so was given, only for "decir" ("dicen"). But maldecir does not follow the same rule as "decir" it seem because the correct conjugation was shown to be "maldicen" (and not "maldecen," which would match the "decir" pattern). Why is there a difference in the conjugation pattern between decir and maldecir? Is there a rule to be learned? Thanks!
