Ellas comen ________ tapas en el bar. They're eating some tapas in the bar.
Wouldn’t this sentence translate to , “Ellas están comiendo” rather than “ Ellas comen”?

Hola Kimberly W.

We’ve reviewed the sentence and made sure it now reads clearly in the lesson.

The focus of the exercise is on using "unas" to express some, so the verb choice isn’t the main teaching point here, but we’ve adjusted the English translation to avoid confusion.

Thanks for spotting it and helping us improve the material!

Un saludo

Silvia
