¿Cómo se escribe un mandato affirmativo en forma de nosotros con un pronombre directo? ¿Incluye "s" o no? ¿Sacamos el ¨s¨ el mismo que se hace con el pronombre reflexivo ¨nos?¨

Por ejemplo: lograr y lo  (En inglés, "Let's achieve it!")

Logrémoslo? Logrémolo?

..... but I've just signed up for another two years, so keep your eyes open for more stupid questions. :-)

The third sentence is not a complete sentence as it lacks a verb. For that reason, I attached it to the second sentence with a coma. To me, that didn't sound right either. Often, I don't grade myself on punctuation because I find that phrases that can stand alone as complete thoughts end with a coma in these exercises, and those that should continue after a coma don't. Because we are transcribing without the opportunity to go back or listen ahead, it is sometimes difficult to know which to use. I usually don't bother correcting punctuation and just correct my Spanish. This paragraph was particularly bothersome. Yes, I do listen to the whole piece beforehand and even take quick notes, but this taxes my short-term memory, especially with the longer readings and higher levels. Professional transcribers constantly pause and backtrack so as not to make mistakes.

I thought that Os was the pronoun for vosotros in this lesson so now I am confused how to use Os since it is not used in Mexico and the lesson did not explain it.  I appreciate your help with this

Hi Inma,

I just worked out the answer - it is the imperative of Ser (Sé). So obvious!

Many thanks

Why is the participle sujeta and not sujeto?

Hola 😊

I translated the above as Cuando me encuentre las llaves. I was marked wrong, the answer is said to lack the "me". I think without the "me" they could be anybody's keys. Am I wrong?

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.

Your second way to express things is numbered "1." instead of "2.".
