Es la primera vez que he visto el verbo versar. Entiendo el sentido en este contexto. ¿Mi cuestión se trata de cómo habitual es?
Your sample answer is “nosotros nos llamarse …… “ but you mark it as an incorrect answer in the quiz
It says that the correct answer is "QUERÍAMOS". I don't understand why you don't use "quisimos". We wanted to help and actually did help, so it is a completed action.
Would it be possible to incorporate a 10 second rewind button so that we can re-listen to an individual sentence rather than having to listen to the whole article again.
The instructions say to use "indefinido" but the indicitive mood examples use imperfecto. Also, the question asked on the quiz only has imperfecto and futuro simple as options. I went with imperfecto and it was marked correct.

If the main clause uses a tense that implies a past action, for example El Pretérito Indefinido or El Pretérito Pluscuamperfecto, then the por si/por si acaso clause uses a past tense.
Le di el dinero que le debía por si acaso se me olvidaba después.I gave him the money I owed him just in case I forgot later.Nos pusimos las botas de agua por si el camino estaba muy enfangado.We put our wellies [US: rain boots] on in case the path was very muddy.In this example, the subject (in English) of the sentence (todas las chicas) precedes the verb in the first sentence, but follows the verb (todas) in the second sentence. Would it be acceptable to place the subject before the verb in the second sentence so that it reads: "No, no a todas les gusta."?
for this story, can i say 'el clima era bueno.' to replace 'Hacía buen tiempo' ?
Hola Inma,
Can you tell me why "qué me gusta más" was not an option in this exercise please? Is it not acceptable?
Incidentally I enjoyed this exercise ... if only for learning the distinction between baile and danza.
Saludos. John
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?
In the question "Nosotros comemos a las dos en punto ...", using generally as the adverb, is the answer generamente or generalmente?
