In the lesson on haber plus participio it has leídos not leído.

In this exercise, what exactly is the reason to prefer "libros buenos" rather than "buenos libros"?

Using El Pretérito Imerfecto in the Gabriel example above seems incorrect/confusing to me, also. Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the imperfect here indicate a general inability to do something, like Gabriel just didn't know how to put the key in the keyhole (incidentally, the sentence should read "key in the keyhole", "keyS in the keyholeS", or "key in the keyholeS" if a single key fits two locks), which seems highly unlikely? It seems to me that El Pretérito Indefinido is more appropriate because: Gabriel didn't manage/succeed in putting the key in the keyhole, and we are referring to a specific moment in the past and the time when it happened is relevant.

The examples given seem to be in the preterite, not the subjunctive. Should the title be changed, or the examples? Or am I mixed up?

Hi there, in this lesson there are a couple of errors,

In the introduction the sentence "This affects to all subjects" is a little confusing, I think that the "to" has found it's way in.
Secondly, there is no mention of the removal of the letter "i" for the ellos conjugation of the verb. Both examples show that it is gone, but there isn't a note in the lesson.
Thanks

Hola,

Why is there an 'a' is this sentence? Is suerte considered a 'person' for the personal a to apply or is it an obligatory preposition after tentar?

Gracias,

I wish there were comprehension questions at the end. It’s annoying that there’s no way to “complete” the reading exercises like the writing and listening ones.

Hello, please would you explain why the verb SER is used in the sentence "la comida del restaurante era mala".  I'm confused which rule is used to trigger SER rather than ESTAR,

Thanks

Sorry, i understand that hacia is sort of correct, only the accent is missing. 

Hello, in this exercise, the first sentence has two uses of "que", the first one does not trigger the subjunctive, but the second one does. I think it may be a useful teaching point if you could explain to me which of the many subjuntive rules apply here.  Many thanks
