HI- It might be helpful to also clarify that you don't use a possessive when speaking of part of your body. For example: as shown above, "My leg hurts" would be translated as "THE leg hurts me" "Me duele LA pierna" ,
NOT as we would more commonly say in English, "My leg hurts me" "Me duele MI pierna".
Why am I marked wrong because of this?
Gracias, Shirley.
Good morning.
Where in the lesson does it say that the vosotros form of "sonreir" in the imperative has an accent. Would you direct me to other exceptions of the rule.
Thank you.

Hello! I was always taught that "asistir" was a false cognate to "assist" (to aid/help) in English. My understanding was that "asistir a" means "to attend," either attending an event/school, etc. or to wait on someone. Can you please clarify whether "asistir" in fact can be used to mean "to assist"? Thank you!
Although somewhat not directly related to the main topic, I have always known 'To drop' as 'Dejar Caer' and 'Caer/caerse' being synonyms for 'To fall.
Have I made a mistake here?
There are too many people in my office.
Why is demasiada the correct answer and not demasiadas? Since we're using many in the English sentence.
Thank you.
In the example La pájaro vuela sobre tu cabeza, why is it "tu" cabeza. I thought when talking about body parts and clothing we should use the definite articles rather than the possessive adjectives.
