There is a lot to unpack in this lesson and I'm finding parts of it quite difficult to comprehend. For example, I see three forms of traer used in examples that express "we." Also examples for "can we have" that do not contain a conjugation of "poder."

Also I don't know where to find explanations of the different tenses, preteritos, etc. of both traer and llevar that are used in this lesson, so a link to the related lesson would help us out. Thank you. I can tell this was a difficult one to put together and I appreciate your effort.

Aunque + ind vs subj

This article is extremely confusing. One of your examples is Voy a salir aunque llueva and you use the subjunctive in the next example—llueve but your translation is the same!? Aunque + subjunctive seems like it should be translated as even if, implying either they don’t know if it is raining or they are talking about a time in the future. Aunque + indicative translates as even though and implies a known fact. I am going out in spite of knowing that it is raining. The talk about shared or background information is something I have never heard before

Third part of this exercise

Hi, when I took this exercise, I was unsure who was the subject of the third part, as Rocío Jurado had been mentioned in part two, it lead me to belive that part three was talking about him. Is it just me, or could you add a note to say that part three refers back to Gloria? Thanks

Commands in negative versus subjunctive

Some of the phrases sound like commands, why not use the imperative mood as opposed to subjunctive?
