Tenses to narrate the pastSegún la declaración del testigo, el ladrón _____ por la ventana.  The correct answers were escapará and escaparía.  But why is escapa  not also correct?  I thought the present tense could be used to narrate past events in literature as well.

Confusion of final "hint"

For the final section (i.e.,  "to enjoy the evening") the hint was "disfrutar (de)". I do not understand the significance of "de" as a hint for that segment of the sentence. Why was "(de)" part of the hint?  I was completely thrown off by that "hint".

En la programa, se dice, "No podemos escuchar bien = We can't hear well." .

En este caso para yo, el contexto no es importante.

En la programa, se dice, 

"No podemos escuchar bien = We can't hear well." .

Siempre pensaba que escuchar quiere decir "to listen" y oír quiere decir "to hear". 

Por favor lo explícame la diferencia.

There's an error in one of the hints...The best answer is:Compare your answer

fue reina de Castilla, Aragón y Navarra. 

Here's the hint we gave you:
Castile = Castilla, Aragon = Aragón, Navarre = Navarra, don't put any article in front of "queen", use El Pretérito Imperfecto

Continuation of my previous post requesting permission

Is it okay to use one of your sentences in my Cantonese and Mandarin language learning video? I want to show repetition of words in different languages and would like to use your: Lo que se dice dolor dolor no tengo. If you're okay with my using your sentence, I will of course credit you and have a link to your website. If you want to see what my videos are like before you make a decision, they're at: https://www.youtube.com/user/notnowigottago

Difference between two examples of there being food at the party is not clear

This is stupid. The examples of the party are both the same. No action is being completed or not being completed. It is just a statement of existence that there "was" food at the party. So we need a better explanation for why in one case it would be "habia" and in one case it would be "hubo."
