Module 51 questions: I cannot find on the resources how to add some to body parts. I attempted to use algunos (as I found on google translate) and use algunos clavos for some nails but it isnt working with several other forms.
Please look under the category for Parts of Body vocabulary. This question has already been answered. Hint: What do the definite and indefinite article mean in Spanish?
Second question. Module 50 (sorry posted it backwards). With the estar verb, for part two and three. The question is Mi hermana _______ (tired) porque mucho. I put "Mi hermana está cansado porque trabaja mucho" but it says it is incorrect. This is the same technique I used for number three were I said Miguel, tú estás ocupado porque hay un examen en la clase de español.
Good question! This is a good opportunity to underline again that adjectives must agree in number and gender with the noun they modify. Hermana is feminine, singular.
Reading 4 and listening 5 will not allow me to answer the question correctly. It tells me to answer the question I know that the answer is right but it keeps saying incorrect there is only one answer but it will not take it.
When are the dates of submission posted - the day the exercise is sent or the day you open it? I've got a patch work of "availables" that I am sure I sent - well as sure as uncertain can be anyway.
On the second part of module 35 where we have to conjugate tener, I cannot get some of the questions correct no matter how many times I try. For example, one of the questions is, "My aunt is thirsty", so I wrote "Tiene sed" in the text box. I have gone over all of the resources, as well as some previous ones, however, I cannot figure out why it is saying that it is incorrect. Would you be able to inform me why it isn't?
Does anyone know how to type letters with accents in Microsoft word on MacBook? I did the Writing 1 assignment by copying and pasting the letters but there has to be an easier way, I just can’t figure it out. Thanks!
Hello, I've ben working on Module 2 but for some odd reason it won't let me submit my answers. I do check my answers and I fix the ones that were incorrect but after fixing them it still says incorrect and it won't let me submit. Does anyone know why this is happening? Am I making a mistake?
Hello, For module 5 question #3 on the combination of words, i have listened to video multiple times and it's spelling fiesta but when I put that answer in and click check my answers and it says its wrong and i have also checked for spaces. Am i listening to the video wrong?
In the listening portion Module 6 the 3rd answer on the listening exercise has dashes. I cut and pasted as instructed for the response, but it came up wrong on the submission portion. I took out the dashes on the submission portion and it showed correct.
Hello! I was just wondering for the midterm and the final if we will have the questions we will be asked to be able to study? If so, where can I find those? Thankyou!
Wow, can't believe it is almost midterm time for the 5 week class. I'll send the questions via email. 10 week class, you have a little more time. Have a great weekend!

Be sure to put the question and your answers in the post so we can see where the error is.
Watch out for extra spaces at beginning and end. Also, look at the punctuation. Your answer has to match the key exactly.

I'm not just going to tell you the answer. Show me what you've been trying so I can see the mistake. Check for extra spaces.

I am working on module 39. Specifically, I have these questions...
4. mil trescientos sesenta y ocho. I believe that this is .368 but the "correct" answer appears to be 1.368.
6. 2.012 dos mil cero diez y dos is labeled as incorrect.
8. 45.000 cuarenta y cinco mil cero cero cero is labeled as incorrect.

My suggestion is to use Google. Every computer is a little bit different. Just type "make spanish accents" and whatever computer you're using.

Everything is due at the end. There is a timeline in the syllabus if you need dates.

Okay. You didn't have them all correct then. You only get credit when you get 100%.

You’re right! It’s an informal, plural form tho. That’s why it’s incorrect.
