The English similarity although we don't use it anymore, they are growing up on us without us realizing or she is not eating on me and I am worried.
And all this time, going through 1, 2 and 3, I thought the lifeguard was a girl! Inma, you need to speak a little more gruffly, please LOL
Since The main differences between ser and estar include that ser is used for permanent qualities, like your name, your place of origin, and your physical appearance, while estar is used to talk about temporary situations, such as how you’re feeling right now or your location.
So why is SER used in this sentence: Tú eras muy bueno. - the person that you are talking to is not always good so it is not a permant state.
Ditto in the following sentence. You are not always rich so why use SER in the following: Vosotros erais ricos.
Not really a question but this lesson could be better if in included the three rules for plural
1# ends in vowel add s
2# ends in consonant add es
3# ends in z change to c and add es.
as far as I know this is correct
Desde que + subjunctive
When talking about past actions we can also use it with the subjunctive, but this makes it sound more formal.
In the lesson on 'Para mí que' it gives its use as - 'we simply express having a feeling, an inkling about something happening'
The English text here says 'What amazes me...' Surely that's stronger than an inkling!
It also says 'esta sigue siendo un medio de lo más popular' Why isn't it 'este' as it refers to the masculine word medio
Gracias
Missing word - Don't pay for those for him, or Don't buy those for him, maybe?
¡Que me dejes en paz!¡Dejarme en paz!
Hi, is “Dejarme en paz” also correct? Gracias, Shirley.?
In the last sentence, why was it not appropriate to use "cualquiera" for the word "any"?
Thank you

The topic is the Mosque-Cathedral in Córdoba
Se encuentra en Córdoba, la que fue la capital del Califato Omeya andalusí, que fue proclamado por Abderramán III en 929.
Could I say:
Se encuentra en Córdoba, la capital del Califato Omeya andalusí, que fue proclamado por Abderramán III en 929.
Gracias
