Of course numbers are read all kinds of ways, but I was always taught that in reading a number without a decimal (i.e., "20, 354") the word "and" is not to be used. Thus, your example "20,354" would be vocalized as: "twenty-thousand, three hundred fifty-four". No "and".

Question: ¡Estén atentos! means: Pay attention!
I don't see anywhere on the lesson that explains this usage. It seems like it's being used as a command/order.
How exactly do we use this as it means "Curiosities" as well!!
I heard some intresting facts about you.
He oído algunos curiosidades de ti.
Is it okay to say this?
A sentence in the quiz for this lesson says, "Me ofrecieron trabajo...." Should be "Me ofrecieron un trabajo."
I think it should be noted that there are some additional adverbs which can be combined with de:
cerca (de)
adelante (de)
arriba (de)
Please confirm/update?
I never heard a sentence with yendo till now. Could you make a list of different sentences in relation to the pronouns?
Hi,
In many lessons and responses to questions, I have read that when deciding if you are to use imperfecto or indefinido, it is up to how the speaker thinks about the event. If the speaker thinks the event had a clear start and end, you should use indefinido, and if not you use imperfecto. Does this mean that it is entirely up to the speaker to decide which past tense is correct? I understand that there are situations where it is clear which is right and wrong, but I feel like in many cases it is a bit more ambiguous.
“Nunca hubieras pensado que hubiese tantas formas de disculparse.” Hola, this sentence is from the B2 Listening exercise on how to apologize in spanish. I don’t know why Nunca triggers the imperfect subjunctive. Maybe this example could be included in the examples in this lesson? Muchas gracias, Shirley.
I believe the accent on "ecónomica" is incorrect. Shouldn't it be "económica"? Also, in many of these exercises it is very difficult to discern when a sentence ends versus when there is a pause based on voice tone.
