In the test the question was: 

I become a vegetarian while my sister becomes a vegan. : Yo me hago vegetariana mientras mi hermana se haga vegana.

Shouldn't it be "mientras mi hermana se hace vegana"? Since mientras is used as "while" in this sentence?

Thanks much

Could someone please clarify the vowel change from e->i on reir. It looks like it is just be dropping the e.

Thank you.

I miss the rationale behind this. is this something to learn 'by heart'? as in, just learn these exceptions and you're good to go?... or is there some reasoning, eg. that without the accent it would be pronounced wrong.. this because of ?

Why isn't it en EL verano?

Two sentences from today's lessons for me:

1. ?Vosotras pudisteis reservar ese hotel tan barato?

2. Lo he visto a él primero, y después de ella.

In both sentences, the accented stress on the recording is on the last syllable of the last word. I like to listen to all the sentences without looking and make sure I understand what is said.  This pronunciation fools me every time.  Why is it not on the penultimate syllable?  Is this regional?

The English translation says “We” for “acaban”. Should it be “they”?

Could you translate this as:

Espero que llegaras anoche

Mil gracias

Could this be ¨no puedo dejar de pensar en ella¨ ?

Thanks
