Puzzled about the absence of an accent on cómo? (even after reading your special lesson on como/cómo)A good exercise ! - but perhaps more at B2 rather than B1 level? - [no worries !]
However, I am a bit puzzled by two words (written here in bold letters) in "Aún así no importa como esté el tiempo" - I confess that I thought "cómo" should carry an accent, and that the first two words should be "Aun así ..." [> ? could they be translated as: "In any event, (it does not matter ...)"] - although I do realise that I might not have completely understood the meaning here of "aún".
Thank you Inma; thank you Shui - keep up the good work !

Since I wrote that^ I've been chewing it over, and maybe I can now see an alternative translation which might fit the use of "como" with no accent > ? Something like: "Even with weather like that, there will be nothing to worry about". Perhaps both 'como' and 'cómo' are permissible, but with different meanings?
Sorry, i understand that hacia is sort of correct, only the accent is missing.
This is really a question about one of the quiz questions:
I correctly chose the response “por más que lo intento” ________, no consigo recordar todo el vocabulario.
But would it have been grammatically incorrect to say “por más que intento, no consigo...” ?
In the test question "My grandmother has gray hair" why do you use tiene instead of the familiar form "tienes". You are referring to YOUR grandmother. Wouldn't that be familiar?
In the quiz question: "Todos los estudiantes son estadounidenses ________. All the students are from the United States except us." the question refuses any answer with "nosotras". Surely "nosotras" should be as equally possible as "nosotros" in this response, or am I misunderstanding?
There are several verbs ending in eguir where the stem changes in the present tense. (for example -- seguir becomes sigo, siges, ...) Does this happen for all verbs ending in eguir or are there examples where the e does not change in the stem.
In the quiz question A veces ________ que llevamos casados 20 años. I selected the response “se me olvido” which was incorrect — but I’m not sure why, even after reviewing the lesson. I have a couple guesses, but could you help me understand why it doesn’t work?
My question and answer: How would you say "For many years I have done Tai Chí"? I picked "Desde hace muchos años hago Taichí. But it says the correct answer is Desde much años hago Taichí.
Looking at the lesson that the link takes me too, I only see to use Desde when the time is specific like 1 year.
Please help.
