Why isn't this "Pónganselo aquí en esta habitción para nosotros, por favor."?
After all, the reflexive pronoun for the third person plural imperative of poner is se.
Can this also be translated as: Va (usted) a salir a comprar pan esta mañana? If not why not?
I don't understand why instead you'd use: Usted sale a comprar pan esta mañana?
Thanks, Lia

While it has been over a year since he submitted that question, I too share his frustration with this lesson. Can someone at Kwiziq give a little more explanation? It would super nice if someone could answer Jeffrey since that is exactly what I have been wondering.
Why is the subjunctive necessary when the subject is the same in both parts of the sentence?
In the example above (Es septiembre y hace calor todavía.), todavía is placed at the end of the sentence and not before/after the verb. Is it a less common (spoken) sentence structure?
I saw this in an article on the BBC about direct and indirect object pronouns.
Escuchamos al cantante.
Le escuchamos.
Is that corrrct? I don’t get why we'd use the indirect object pronoun here. What is the direct object in this case?
Why isn't "No me gusta comer el chocolate?"
As in, why don't we use the article
ha participado en numerosas producciones españolas que le han convertido en famosa
I put la han hecho famosa as the structure seems like a transitive verb but was marked wrong.
Is that because of using hacer or is it leismo
