My answer “él tuviera” was marked wrong. How is it wrong to include the stated pronoun for clarity?
The combined verb with pronouns now has an accent [´] even if didn't have one as a simple imperative with no pronouns, this is to maintain the pronunciation of the original verb.
Why does árabe have two accent marks?
hay un fantasma de una mujer que no deja de quejarse de sus desgracias
Is it too simplistic to say that:
Sentir is followed by a Noun or que, and
Sentirse is followed by an Adjective/Adverb or como.
Now that I write it out, perhaps it's not easier to remember.

Hace dos días Manuel ________ con el jefe sobre el nuevo proyecto. Two days ago Manuel was speaking with his boss about the new project.(HINT: Conjugate "hablar" in El pretérito Indefinido progresivo)estuvo hablandoesutvo hablando
Wouldn't it be easier to translate "No tenía más que unas monedas en el bolsillo." to "He didn't have more than a few coins in his pocket." rather than "He only had a few coins in his pocket."? This type of translation would work for the "más que +noun" instances.
Can "No tienes más que decirlo y yo estaré allí para ayudarte." be translated to "You don't have to say anything more than it/that and I will be there to help you." rather than "You just have to say it and I will be there to help you."?
I answered the question with the plural they form vienen and you marked it wrong and it wasn't wrong
¡Chicos, esto no es justo...otra vez! ;)) Hablando de cosas tan deliciosas...me encantan los pintxos y por supuesto me encanta el vino de Rioja.
¡Bueno, eso es todo, me voy a España para comer algo de buena comida y vino! Jajajaja :))
P.S. Thank you for all the fantastic and really informative translation exercises that you provide for us. I really enjoy them!
Why is it strange that the man who was living off of her in Toledo isn't calling her back? Is it because he found some other woman for sex and money? I'm not getting the moral of this story. Why aren't her parents encouraging her to make better relationship decisions? Is this why she decided to forget her boyfriend?
