En inglés, se escribe 'indifference' ;-)
It seems to me that telling someone else that their own car works beautifully would indicate that the knowledge is shared and thus subjunctive (funcione) but that was marked incorrect. Please clarify.
Hola,
RE: what this means: [the] when used
It talked about the use of [the] colours
I was wondering what is the meaning of the use of brackets [ ] and ( ) in these tests.
Sometimes it seems that this means that the word in brackets is used in Spanish, but if I remember correctly,
sometimes it does not mean this.
So if there is a way to find out what these means and any others, would be very appreciated.
Thank you.
Also wishing you the best in this New Year to you and your team!

In the example below, why is it 'aprovechó' and not 'se aprovechó de'? It seems quite a negative context to me, and the context even seems to be leading us towards using the reflexive form by saying 'el muy egoísta'.
Rafa, [being] such an idiot, took advantage of the moment to break up with me. : Rafa, el muy egoísta, ___ la ocasión para romper conmigo.
Estar is a temporary condition so why is the answer ser regarding being sick?
Please explain on what basis cuándo is correct here and not cuando. This looks to me like a perfectly straightforward statement of fact. No one is asking a question. In fact, this sentence is an answer to a question such as, "When will you see him again?"
Yo pienso que nunca alcanzaré el porciento de 100% en la nivel a1. Con solo una error pierdo veinte puntos. Necesitaba 4 horas a lograr la diamante aunque sólo tuve los más triviales errores en a1.
Why isn't "las" used to modify both bicicletas and cintas de correr? I thought bicycles and treadmills were a general class of equipment, and not a specific bike or a specific treadmill. Thank you.
So can this same construction be used with nunca, but just not with the same level of emphasis?
Yesterday I was visiting my friend Jimena.
The best answer is:
Ayer estuve visitando a mi amiga Jimena.
Is it incorrect to say estaba visitando OR visitaba ?
I can't find any lessons on the differences.
Gracias
