The question asked for imperfect for Ir with subjects of "tu y Marcos", and I put "ibais". This was counted wrong and the correct answer given as "iban". I could understand both being counted as correct, but why is "ibais" incorrect?
I said this phrase was incorrect as I though the a in ave would change the una to an un.
However I was marked wrong and apparently it is a correct phrase.
Is this another exception to the rule?
In this sentence from the exercise: "Él es muy famoso, expone en muchas galerías y museos y tiene muchos premios."
The word "muchas" is feminine, but since it seems to include "museos" I was thinking it might be "muchos". Is it a rule that the first in a series determines the gender, or was this done to say "many galleries and (some) museums"?
Why is “hubiera (formal) mentido” wrong. What is the hint for using hubieras?
Sorry, i understand that hacia is sort of correct, only the accent is missing.
no animals were in the making of this film. The correct answer i ningún animal. I put ningún animales
Why is it incorrect when the sentence was no animals?
The time is last month, why don't we use Era posible and lead to other hubiera PP?

Hola Inma,
Having read your reply to David I'm still a bit lost. Many of the phrases were translated in the past tense for example "We lit the fireplace" and "we sat in front of it" etc but all took the pretérito perfecto because they occurred today "Hoy". However, "We loved seeing how the firewood was consumed" was the only phrase given in the pretérito indefinido and expanded in the imperfecto.
There must be something about the phrase that calls for this construction. Can you give me a pointer?
Saludos. John
