Why "de donde *eres*" for informal but "de donde *es* usted" for formal? 

Also, when the subjunctive is used is it always part of the cuando clause?

Why is there an y in the sentence ... su país y al resto....... ?

Luna, Mar y tú dormiren un hotel de lujo.

Luna, Mar and you preferred to sleep in aluxury hotel.

(HINT: Conjugate the "ustedes" form of "preferir" in El Pretérito Indefinido)

x prefirieron

preferieron

kwiziq says prefirieron is incorrect and that it should be preferieron, but the lesson and internet says otherwise. 

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?

I’ve started to get kwiz questions about specific instances of the imperative, but I am very unfamiliar with it. Could you link me to the introductory lessons/material you have about forming the imperative? Thanks

Hi there!

What are the other pronouns? What if we want to say: "They like the train"? Do those pronouns follow the rules of the reflective ones? So, is it: "se gusta el tren"?

It seems as if porque would convey the same idea and is probably more often used in conversation.  So is de tanto more formal, literary or is it used in the street?

I continue to have exactly the same problem as the users below.  Your team really needs to fix this.
