For this lesson, would it be correct to say that you generally conjugate the verbs ending in "ar" to "aba" (e.g. hablar becomes hablaba) and that you conjugate verbs ending in "er" and "ir" to "ía" (e.g. soler becomes solía)?

I know for "¡Ni loca te presto dinero!" if you want to use "ni que fuera" it goes: "Ni que fuera loca. . . " but what do you replace "presto" with? i.e. "Ni que fuera loca te ___ dinero."

Hello, in cases where cuál means what, is there a difference between cuál and lo que ?

Thanks !

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?

    Pass me that [thing] which there next to you please.

    (HINT: Use the correct word for "that" acting as a direct object)

With "lo" (the correct answer was "eso").   And "lo" still seems correct to me without context.  IE "Pass me that which is next to you please." or something like that.   I think the import of the lesson is that, in cases where "the thing" has been previously mentioned, "eso" or "ello" is more correct. 

  
Here are my questions, assuming I've got the idea right about the eso/ello usage above ;-) :

  
1. Should the question provide the context ?   IE "HINT: Use the correct pronoun for something mentioned previously acting as a direct object." 

  
2.  Either way, isn't the question a little weird?   I mean, if we already talked about the thing, why would I also specify its location?   I mean, wouldn't I just say "Pass me that thing (we talked about), please" ?  
Thanks!

Are the three connectives synonymous or is there a slight difference in their meaning?

Why is this the correct answer: Usted esta en la lista and not Usted estas en la lista?
