On two occasions the text moved on before I could submit my answers and on another occasion it didn't let me submit an answer as I had maybe pressed a key which triggered the "Not sure about that one?" response.
"Le compré flores."
Does this mean:
I bought her flowers (for her)
or
I bought flowers from her
How do I make it clearer, unambiguous?
Thank you.
Can you tell me why this is wrong? "Les seguiré contando más cosas sobre esta tradición a condición de que vengan el año que viene." This is from https://spanish.kwiziq.com/my-languages/spanish/tests/overview/573782
Muchas Gracias - Michelle
There were various correct answers but all had Inglés capitalised. I chose the answer below and was marked correct but is it?

Is the verb "leer" another example of a verb of perception, or is it something different? Soy bibliotecario para pregunto mis estudiantes sobre leyendo. Recientemente, pregunté un estudiante "Puedes leerlo?" Ella quiso sacar un libro en íngles, pero su ingles está abajo. La dejé por supuesto. No soy un monstruo. So, did I ask the right question? (And please correct any errors. I was trying to work through some skills I have been learning. Writing sentences and all that.) Gracias para esta comunidad!
I am currently taking lessons from a tutor from Latin American who told me that in describing past experiences you would specifically use the past perfecto-He viajado en Mexica instead of the preterito. You contradict this. I wonder if this means you can actually use either and it's just a preference.
I never thought that I was misusing definite articles until this exercise. Apparently, I either add a definitive article when it's not required or omit it when it is. Is there a rule that I'm missing with this?
For example: For "Asimismo, gobiernos y organizaciones trabajan en políticas para una gestión sostenible del agua.", I wrote: "Asimismo, LOS gobiernos y organizaciones trabajan en LAS políticas para una gestión sostenible del agua". Why shouldn't I use definite articles where I did?
"Los países en la cumbre presentaron sus propuestas ________ las catástrofes naturales."
In this question, the correct answer is ante. Could "frente a" be another option here?
"Los países en la cumbre presentaron sus propuestas frente a las catástrofes naturales."
Also, could you either add a section about frente to this lesson or create a lesson about frente?
