Hi!

I think if the English was restructured for a few of the examples, the distinction between haber/tener would be clearer. Essentially the past participle would be moved towards the end of the sentence while placing the object after have/has.

For example: You have two rooms painted. Marta and I have a trip to Egypt planned.

Thanks!

You             Lamentablemente, no había pavo en el supermercado

I was wondering if  “Lamentablemente” would be acceptable here and if not, why not.

Thank you.

Hello!  I often see the verb imaginar used in its reflexive form.  Would ‘imaginarse’ be correct in this context as well?  Thank you!

Hello

I am using US International keyboard. I keep typing "está"  but some how your programing is registering it as "es" and therefore marking my answers as incorrect. Qué pasa?

Hola todos, 

Hoping you are all well.

I have 2 questions on this exercise:

that broke the monotony of black and white.

1-) re: que rompía la monotonía del blanco y negro.

I wrote: "del negro y blanco." 

Could you tell me why the Spanish inverts the adjectives. (I even checked with Reverso and they translated it the same way.

2) re: and people liked it.

Kwizbot           y a la gente le gustaba.
You                  y le gustaba a la gente.

Don't know why this particular arrangement would be the only one possible? 

Thank you.

En este caso para yo, el contexto no es importante.

En la programa, se dice, 

"No podemos escuchar bien = We can't hear well." .

Siempre pensaba que escuchar quiere decir "to listen" y oír quiere decir "to hear". 

Por favor lo explícame la diferencia.

Hi, can we get translations for the Spanish dictation exercises? That would be an awesome feature. Currently I translate everything by hand. (Don't mean to sound demanding. Just as a suggestion for future implementations maybe. I would probably put the translation on the same page where we get a chance to compare our answer to the one kwizbot expects. Or, if that reveals too much context, at the end of the lesson.)

These verbs all mean "to turn", but are they the same?

Thank u so much
