Curious how common the use of "sadden" is? In English, it would be much more natural/common to say "the film makes me sad" or "stray dogs make me sad" although you could also say "they sadden me."

I'm very confused by this as according to the lesson, the structure:

I don't see why my answer ' a solo pocos años de.. ' is incorrect.
Gracias

I am wondering how the scoring system works for this exercise. I transcribed many of the parts correctly with no error. Why didn't I receive any points?
Hola Inma, In the introductory paragraph to this lesson, it says “the conditional clause with ‘como si’ can be placed ……” I think this should be “the conditional clause with como.” Sí?
