Para + Infinitive with the same subject / Using "Ojalá" with the Imperfect subjunctive/ Maybe two typos?1. Instead of "para que seamos más felices", could we also say "para ser más felices"? - because the subject is the same in the two clauses?
2. With "Ojalá", you point us towards the lesson Using ojalá + the present subjunctive to express hope (El Presente de Subjuntivo) - which illustrates the use of the *present* subjunctive (when expressing a *future* idea). However, perhaps it would be worth emphasising that in this particular writing exercise ("Carmen"), the *imperfect* subjunctive has to be utilised because the speaker is not really referring to the future?
3. You give "al cual que podemos transformar con los pensamientos" as a possible answer, but should the "que" not be removed? - (or if it is permissible, then you should really mention that in the lesson Using preposition a and de + el que, la que, los que, las que = to/of/from/about which/who (relative pronouns) ).
4. (Something very trivial !) > 'Nuestro' has lost its "r" in the Kviziq answer given as "Todos podemos cambiar nuesto modo de pensar".

Hi, when will these exercises be fixed? It has been several days now. Thanks for a great app.

In a test, I got the question "Yo _____ mis manos en el agua". The verb was sumergir. Is it more correct to say "mis manos" here than "las manos" and if so, why? Are there certain verbs you are more likely to or would always use the possessive rather than definite?
From the quiz:
Ben ________ la alarma.
Write ''Ben had been woken up by the alarm.
había sido despertado por
Could I also say, "A Ben le había despertado la alarma."?
Thank you.
There is something wrong with your software. I am doing SER conjugation in the present and select options are in english
The title of the page is: forming el Imperfecto Progresivo con estar + gerundio but the next paragraph jumps to the Pretérito Imperfecto:
“In the case of El Pretérito Imperfecto, this is how the progressive tense is formed.”
Is the pretérito imperfecto and the imperfecto progresivo the same tense, just a different name?
Thank you.

Why is “hubiera (formal) mentido” wrong. What is the hint for using hubieras?
Why is the participle sujeta and not sujeto?
