Hi, my initial thought was that we would rather use an article before the noun in the following sentence: "...que el candidato conozca el derecho internacional". Could you please explain?

What would be the best way to clarify between, for example: 

"We will send the exam results out within the next two weeks." [at some point during that time frame]

and 

"We will send the exam results out in two weeks." [after two weeks have passed]

Son muy populares los siguientes platos:  The following dishes are very important

I am confused as to why this sentence is ordered in this way. Why does Los siguientes platos precede son muy populares?

thanks 

This lesson tells when it uses the accento - but DOESN"T tell what it means/how to use with out the accento so can't see alternative

The above hint is given for this exercise, but what is the "EN phrase order"? - I've tried searching for this but I can't find anything.

The explanation says we always have to use the definite article with the activity.  The example given there is tennis:...se me da bien al tenis.    But in the quiz the correct response is "No se me da bien arreglar cosas".   Is arreglar cosas not an activity?  We have to actively arrange things/matters.  

Thank you,

Sheila

Hi. I think someone mentioned this point some time ago and the reply was that the problem had been fixed but it doesn’t appear to have been. Under the section on “desde que” in the example “Mañana, desde que aterrices hasta que llegues…” “hasta que” appears in bold rather than “desde que”. I hope this helps. :)
