This example is wrong, no? Quizá Miguel no aprobara.
This is in the imperfect subjunctive. Shouldn't it be apruebe?
Why is it “los más ricos” and “los más listos”?
If the assumption is that we are referring to people, (la gente or las personas), should they not take the feminine form?
I encountered this in a video:
John es estudiante. Roger es UN estudiante también.
Why does the article appear when también is added? Is this correct? If so, what is the explanation?
(Google translate also adds the indefinite article when también is used.)

1. Le costó 5 dólares comprarlo de nuevo.
2. Él necesita 5 dólares para comprarlo.

cabràn todo mis libros en esa caja?

Not a big deal but would it be correct to abbreviate ustedes following con?
Marta y yo ________ 200 km a la semana para ir a trabajar.
Marta and I travel 200 km a week to go to work.(HINT: Conjugate "hacer" in El Presente)
I wish there were a lesson explaining how the use of articles in Spanish differs from English. For example, "he has a good heart" is "tiene buen corazon" not "un buen corazon". Another example, "I will be in the first row" is "estare en primera fila" and not "en la primera fila".
