Preferir... que... just means: prefer... than... .Doesn't it?

Preferir... en vez de... means: prefer... rather than.... Why? I don't understand.

Thank you so much

I get it.  Le is not the correct answer for a reason, but not the reason given in the lesson examples.  Just because the preposition "con" is always followed by a subject pronoun is insufficient explanation.  It implies that "con" was already a given, but it was not.  I believe that "le" is an indirect object/pronoun and therefore not correct.  

You have this sentence in the lesson:

Their endings are the same as other regular -er verbs in El Presente de Subjuntivo.

I think this should be changed to say -ar verbs.

En la frase, "que si unas almejas", no entiendo porque utilizamos 'si' y no 'son'. 

Why is it rey del vino instead of rey de vino?

This test question confused me.  I thought that a number under 200 used "unos" but the test answer says it should be unas tres horas.

The journey lasts about three hours. : El viaje dura ___ horas.

Why is 'buena' used to describe the coffee as good? 'El café' is masculine so I don't understand why it wouldn't be 'El café colombiano...es muy bueno.'

Thanks in advance!

2nd example above is  'Cuanto menos te vea, mejor'

Why subjunctive?

Hello,

one of the sentences to be translated was: They were even better than in my dreams.

Why isn't it "mejores" here? "Eran aún mejores que en mis sueños."

Thanks!

Small point here. Lesson states " Faltar a un lugar means not to assist" . 

To assist in English translates to AYUDAR.

Should read FALTAR A UN LUGAR means not to be present. or not to attend, in this context.
