I think I understand the difference in the usage of adentro, vs. dentro (de) but does the same principle apply to afuera vs. afuera (de)?

Hola! Would it be possible to have examples with each word? I find it difficult to contextualise without a sentence. Gracias!

This lesson says «present tense is used to talk about the past event», which is fine, in English too it happens.

However, there is another lesson in C1, «simple future or conditional tenses are also used» to talk about the past event.

Can someone please explain when to use the present tense, and when to use simple future/conditional to talk about the past event? Or, in the same situation, present tense and future/conditional tense is inter-changeable??

I´m wondering how do you know when to use "conocí" or "conocía"?

Interesting that réir in the vosotros form is riais, without an accent, but sonréir in the vosotros form is sonriáis, which has an accent!  This difference is not mentioned in this lesson.

When do I use imperfect or preterito with past progressive

elija las construcciones que mejor se adapten a contexto de la frase: (ir a +infinitivo,pensar +infinitivo, presente, futuro)

1.te Lo juro - siempre ........... a tu lado, incluso dentro de 30 años.

2.Qué........ el viernes, porque no veo que tengas ningún plan concreto.

3.qué edad crees que tiene la sra. nowakowa? creo que .......... unos 45, pero no estoy seguro.

4. en julio .............. a la playa con toda la familia, ya hemos reservado una casa de campo y comprado los biletes.

What is the key to make the answer "fue" rather than "estuvo"? It was a one time thing, done and over.
