Would it be more correct to change this sample sentence:
 "Puede que yo haya sido un poco brusca, pero tenía que decir la verdad."

Vs.

"Puede que yo haya ESTADO un poco brusca....."? \

Thanks for your input. 

Hi, I have to write an essay in Spanish about my personal life how do I say "MMA fighter" in Spanish would it "peleador de la MMA"which is what I have been taught or "luchador de la MMA" and what is the difference (I need European Spanish if that makes a difference)

Why "a"  El Cortes..." and not ..en?

For example, would this be correct?

I cleaned the room, so he would be happy.

Limpié la habitacion,  así que él se sintiera feliz

Could así que and para que both be used in this context?

Is there a comprehensive rule for when to use (or not use) PARA before an infinitive? I sometimes encounter examples where para is used without the sense of "purpose" that is supposed to trigger the use of "para."  In other words, I can't use the rule "in order to" to translate these sentences.

Cuándo estaba en Australia, tenía muchos problemas para hablar inglés.

Tuvimos muchas dificultades para encontrar la parada de autobús.

Fue un día demasiado bueno para quedarse adentro.

Just want to clarify: 

We say “a las cuatro de la tarde”.  

Are there any other prepositions that we use with specific times?

Al principio, el museo iba a construirse en Madrid     is given as correct

Why is it incorrect to say

Al principio, el museo iba a ser construido en Madrid

Gracias

The example sentence:

"En esta tienda pueden comprarse unas joyas muy bonitas."

The translation is given is 

"You can buy very nice jewels in this shop."

However could it also be translated as:

"They can buy themselves some very nice jewels in this shop." 

if we interpret the se as being an indirect object rather than passive?
