Spanish language Q&A Forum

1. why is the answer sentence being phrased as 'the idea attracted me' when the sentence given is I was attracted to the idea?

2. it a esquiar a Europa. why does it uses 'a' instead of 'en'?

3. en Argentina se pueden practica... why is this se pueden in plural and not se puede in singular?

3. drop by is given as dejarse caer por.. can we still use pasar por?

I was searching for a little information on reflexive verbs and ended up with the best lesson yet! By following the links at Reflexive verbs I found so much valuable information that I'll be breathless for the next few days as I absorb it all . . .Thanks Inma 

Not exactly sure what "These adjectives are always invariable in masculine and feminine singular" is trying to tell me. Does this imply that -e ending nationalities can be either masculine or feminine?

Hi! The kwizbot is not changing the lessons even though I have gotten 100% on all 10 recommended lessons. He is only giving me A0 lessons and not introducing A1 lessons. How can I have the bot change lessons to something new to help me progress? 

Hola

I am having difficulty understanding when an answer is simply incorrect and you wouldn't say it in Spanish, and when the answer given is not what Kwiz expects to see.   For example, I wrote 'Cuando fine la leccion' (I can't find the accent!) and it was marked incorrect.  Would it be incorrect to say that in conversation with a Spanish speaker?

Many thanks

I missed “que” in my comment below. Shirley. 

I am confused about the translation for a section of this exercise. That section is:  "I like King Baltazar". For this, I wrote "A mí me gusta al Rey Baltasar", but the corrected answer/translation was presented as "A mí me gusta el rey Baltasar". I thought the preposition "a" needed to be inserted after use of gusta if the reference was to a person (in this case "rey Baltasar" --- lower case in "rey" notwithstanding). Apparently, I am wrong. Could you please explain why "el" and not "al" was correct?

I understand except for the last word "queráis    ".  I was expecting to see " queréis   " for the "you want" at the end.

Looking up queráis, I see that it is the present subjunctive and have read that it is used if there is a change in the subject.

I can't see a change in subject. The first part of the sentence has "you" as subject ans so does the second part.

I expect that I've missed something crucial here so please help me to understand.

Thanks.

Si alguien tiene recomendaciones para libros buenos e interesantes en nivel A2 y B1 por favor 🙏🌈🌴 compártanlos aquí — fiction/ novels but not something not so focused on kid themes :-).   

Hola Inma,

You write:

---------

With "acordarse" we can't use "lo". You can use it with "recordar" though:

Yo no lo recuerdo. 

With acordarse you can say: 

Yo no me acuerdo de eso.

--------

Is the following incorrect:

Yo no me lo acuerdo.
