This one contains all the classics so I would expect that it'll give you less trouble.

Por vs Para General Quiz

PS as many of you know I am teaching myself web design and have taken this opportunity to practice as I go along by building a website to help learners of English and Spanish.

For that reason I'm bound to have the odd glitch and everything is open to human error, so my apologies in advance if you are affected by any glitches but thank you so much if you'd be so kind to let me know about them so that I can fix them and hopeful create a site that is complimentary to Spanish Dict, enjoyable to use and useful as well.

With this quiz I am trialling the benefits of having members first login as this will help participants to earn points which will indicate to others just how serious they are about learning, and it will also help me to see if any questions are proving problematic so that I can perhaps improve the wording etc.

Registration and Membership is free as are the resources and I hope that they prove helpful on your journey to learning another language.

Now, just to reiterate, when you click the link, if the quiz isn't showing up make sure that you're logged in to reveal it.

Thanks Kiwi. I tried to register to do the quizzes, but kept having problems. - rac1, Jan 1, 2014

Yep, me too. Registered and followed the link from email, but stuck at the login window :) - - dennywells, Jan 1, 2014

Hey guys sorry about the inconvenience, the thing is that each new member needs to be approved (a bit of a pain but a necessary evil thanx to spammers who can wreak all sorts of havoc if let in I checked) so that may have been the problem as I was on the - Kiwi-Girl, Jan 2, 2014

Road all day yesterday without the Internet. :(. So thanks for bearing with me, if you registered yesterday you should have been approved now - if you are still having problems pm me your details and I can check your account from my end. - Kiwi-Girl, Jan 2, 2014

Answer 1

Just finished! Another great quiz... I still got some set phrases wrong!

I know you don't mind corrections, so here are some:

6: "Sudamérica" 8: "mí" 20: "millas" 28: "horas" 34: "mañana"

Yay glad you persisted tosh, I think the login problem was just as I explained above with needing approval first. Thanks for catching my typos too that's awesome, I'll get on to that now. - Kiwi-Girl, Jan 2, 2014

Answer 2

Hola, Kiwi-Girl,

¡Feliz año nuevo! y ¡Feliz cumpleaños!

Thank you very much for having been producing great learning materials for us. I'm not a sucker for punishment, so I will study the lesson "Por vs. Para" offered by you first and then take the quiz. Just now I happened to notice that today is your birthday which is shown on your profile, so I have to express my thankfulness to you before Jan. 2. I hope it's not too late.

May your birthday brings you as much happiness as you give to others!

Thanx Joy that's very kind of you. :) - Kiwi-Girl, Jan 2, 2014

Answer 3

Hiya Kiwi - seems there are some connectivity problems for I tried to register and it showed that my email address is already taken; also, the username that I changed a bit (appending just the country code) was reported to be taken. No quizzes, no disappointments nor bad stupidity feelings either; you are doing a great job anyway - All the best in the New Year. Wheeler /Eslovaquia/

Thanks for the feedback wheeler, it may have just been a case of needing to have your membership approved so hopefully you're all good to go now, feel free to pm me if there's any problems, btw I'm especially happy that there's no bad stupidity feelings - Kiwi-Girl, Jan 2, 2014

That would have been awful! Ps. Just out of interest when you register does a message pop up saying that you need to wait for approval confirmation? Or something along those lines? - Kiwi-Girl, Jan 2, 2014

Answer 4

It worked for me Kiwi -very good test again.

Read the comment I left.

Yay glad it behaves itself some of the time at least :) - Kiwi-Girl, Jan 2, 2014

Answer 5

Really , Kiwi, your site is very clever, I tried hard to log in but it told me: UNEXPECTED CHARACTER. Too bad, could be uncurable, I fear.

Hey Annie, sorry to hear that, have you tried all lowercase? I think it's a rather sensitive login plugin, I'm trialling another so will hopefully iron the bugs out soon :). You seem to have registered fine so perhaps it'll work now that you're approved. - Kiwi-Girl, Jan 2, 2014

Answer 6

Once i received the registration details retried to make it to the quiz but got stuck in the login panel same as dennywells
