Spanish language Q&A Forum

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?

Hola,

Is it possible to convert this structure into the past tense, as if I was telling a story in the continuous past:

Hacía tres meses que Nuria vivía en California.

Or does this structure only work in the present?

Gracias,
Stuart

In writing exercise "A perfect day in Granada", I am expected to use simple present tense to talk about the near future plans. And the "ir + verb" structure is not accepted as an alternative correct answer. Why?

"An impersonal statement in Spanish, e.g. "Es bueno que...", "Es importante que..." can be followed by the infinitive", no está correcta, según se puede leer más abajo en el texto.

Are these correct?
