Hola Inma,
".... usar las tarjetas, ..... prevenir contagios"
can you, please, explain why do you use the article in the first case but not in the second? I thought articles in Spanish are used when talking in general, which apply in both cases (I think).
Muchas gracias

Hola,
Why do we only conjugate -ar verbs in the preterito indefinido tense? What about -er and -ir verbs?
Also, is the preterito indefinido the same as the simple past tense?
Gracias
Hi, I have been told (by two different Spanish people) that 'Me estoy leyendo...' signifies 'I am reading (right now)...', but I cannot find any lessons relating to this. Is there such a lesson?
You say "Ustedes" which is plural but you translate it as "you" in the singular in the answer, so the learner does not know which answer to choose.
As Michael says, pronouns are not easy.
But why add to our misery by adding the ‘insignificant’ note regarding the position of pronouns with infinitives, imperatives and gerunds. That’s surely worth a lesson all of its own.
How would you say, "I am proud of myself" and "I will do it myself"?
