Would it be correct to use Porque at the start of a sentence....e.g. instead of

Como estoy enfermo, no voy a ir al trabajo hoy.

Porque estoy enfermo, no voy a ir al trabajo hoy

Hola Kwiziq team, 

Quick question; in the example below is unos agreeing with minutos? Or should it be agreeing with pelicula?

La película dura unos ochenta minutos.

Thanks as always. 

Fran

It is not clear when to use qué after mismo. For e.g.

Andrea lleva la misma camisa que llevaba ayer.

Vs.

No me cuentes de nuevo la misma historia.

This has al and del appearing right next each other. How does that work?

"... al diseño de una escafrandra estratosférica" misspells "escafandra" [putting in an extra 'r'] - and marks you wrong unless you misspell it in your answer! … It is correctly spelled when used again later in the passage... [I always tick the box: "Send email notifications of new answers" - but never receive any notifications?]

I know that you are teaching us well, and I'm 90% that I know what this means, but there isn't a translation for this sentence.

When working through the exercise, "En la televisión anunciaron nuevas medidas económicas …" was accepted as correct, but in the final version [which gets read to us at the end], "En la televisión anunciaban nuevas medidas económicas" was preferred... > This is not really a criticism or a question, because a good case can be made for each of those^ tenses - but you might like to cover that point to reassure us.
