Me parece bastante torpe el uso de lo porque sabemos el sujeto. No deja de mostrar que esta institución como la que era, extraordinariamente cruel. (la institución es el sujeto). 😀
Hola Inma, busco un listo de verbs de moviemiento. He buscado el internet. ¿Existe un listo de estos verbos? Gracias y que tengas una buena tarde.

For the phrase: "... accompanied by rich hot chocolate" > "[una deliciosa rosca] acompañada de un rico chocolate caliente" -
- the hint which you gave us should read: "the adjective 'rich' is reinforcing 'hot chocolate' " ... (Instead, you put: "the adj. 'hot' is reinforcing 'hot chocolate' ").
‘We had to play football without kneepads’ - in English we say shin pads (UK) or shin guards (US). Knee pads are what you use for skating. SpanishDict is telling me shin guards are ‘espinilleras’, but I have no knowledge about about which is correct/if one word may be used in a certain country and another elsewhere etc
At the moment, the availabilty of these homes is very limited is translated as:
Por el momento, la disponibilidad de estas viviendas es muy reducida
Why isn't estar used here because at the moment surely implies that the situation is a temporary state?
Gracias
The text says:
Desde entonces, hemos sido como uña y carne
In all the lessons with desde to mean 'since' we are told to use the present tense.
I put 'Desde entonces somos como uña y carne' but was marked wrong. What is the error here?
Gracias
For this question about recibir in the imperfect, I inserted the "personal a" but it was marked wrong. Ayudame por favor!
In his small apartment he didn't receive guests. --> En su apartamento pequeño no recibía a visitas. (recibía was correct but adding a was marked wrong)
Test question uses "Nos impresiona que," with the subjunctive however this lesson referenced for the answer never discusses this grammatical construction. It would be good to add this to the lesson so there is no ambiguity.
In the example "A veces ________ que llevamos casados 20 años", why is simple olvido wrong? - when there was another question in another kwizz about forgetting a towel, and olvido was correct. How are we supposed to know if something is accidental or not? I must say that I find this lesson absolutely confusing and no matter what I put in the answer, it always seems to be wrong.
(And I notice that it lists me as C1. I'm not C1, I am still struggling with B2. The Kwizbot doesn't understand the fluctuating nature of how people learn, forget, re-learn, get wrong again, and so on.)
