Personal A can't find the lesson Hi,
I am having difficulty toggling between Kwiziq, Lawless Spanish and this site (Progress...)
When I am in the Kwiziq site, for some reason, I can't log in. I have also tried what had been suggested to me earlier, to just replace the address with the Lawless one, and was told I'd be in the same place, but when I do that, it brings me to the main Progress with Lawless "welcome" page, with the "Your Spanish Dashboard". and I've lost the page..
When I find something on the Lawless site and I sign in, I lose the page I was on and cannot find that page in the Progress with Lawless site.
For example, in Lawless, I found an article on the Personal A, with links at the bottom. This is the page I was on:
https://www.lawlessspanish.com/grammar/prepositions/personal-a/
Article name:
Personal A
{Excerpt : Although normally prepositions are not used in front of direct objects, in Spanish there is a special preposition called the personal a which precedes direct objects that refer to people, personified nouns, and animals.]
I was trying to find this article thru a search on this page I'm writing in, and didn't find this particular article, but a list (which I included at the bottom of this message.)
Sorry for this being so long and probably confusing, but here are my questions:
1) how can I toggle from one site to the other/ and /or keep the page I'm on once logged in?
2) how can log into Kwiziq - it doesn't recognize me even though I got there via the activity listed here:
and I enter my log in info but it doesn't recognize it.
2-1) for example I don't understand why I am not logged in anymore when I click on my name in the
Q&A section in Lawless to get a list of my questions and I'm suddenly in Kwiziq.
3) How do I find this article below, that is at https://www.lawlessspanish.com/grammar/prepositions/personal-a/
but not in here, not that I could find easily anyway.
Thanks for your attention.

"we were studing at the university of Salamanca during the 90'
While translating the verb study in spanish , I think we will use preterite indefinido (pretertio perfecto simple) because of time frame (during the 90) instead of preterite imperfecto.
Please guide me on this.
In the sentence "Él me trata tan especialmente como tú." why is tú used here rather than a ti - Él me trata tan especialmente como a ti. I'm assuming it is the function of the word as which is what here a preposition or a conjunction. As an aside what might be the most accurate English in this sentence, especially or specially?
It is indeed a great bonus that Inma speaks so clearly - Many thanks ! … Even after living in Spain for nearly 20 years, it is still often a struggle for me to understand people when they speak, particularly here in Andalusia... I suppose that means that you should be providing me with listening exercises [with a transcript] which feature 'rapid' conversation?
I am having a small issue. The summary box that should show the list of conjugations is empty. I have been seeing this issue recently with the future tense. Can you help with this?

In the quiz I just took, I was supposed to translate "that famous film". I said "Esa película famosa" and was marked wrong. The answer was "aquella película famosa".
Given that the usage is somewhat subjective, and depends on how close the person feels to the object, shouldn't "esa" also be correct?
Edited to add: looks like I can't delete the question. I just went back to my quiz results, and it looks like there's a hint that I missed, that the speaker was feeling distant from the film. So that explains it.
Why is it "fue (indefinido) muy emocionante" but "mis contrincantes eran (imperfecto) muy bueno"?
And why is it "fue muy emocionante" rather than "estaba / estuve muy emocionante"? There is a lesson entitled "Using estar (not ser) when talking about emotions".
Hola,
I was wondering what the English term is for "madre de día". I have searched online and didn't find anything that would fit well.
I believe it would be "day care worker"?
Thank you and I hope you and yours and the team and their families are all doing well in these difficult times.
