Answer 1

I will answer the first one to give you a start.

Winston Churchill, Abraham Lincoln, would be either "biografía or historia." I would lean toward "biografía."

That makes sense, like categories in a library because 4 and 5 had me stumped. - Mardle, Sep 8, 2017

"Líderes" would do fine also. I like "biografía" better. - DonBigoteDeLaLancha, Sep 8, 2017

What is needed is to name in which class you would study these items or subjects. - Daniela2041, Sep 8, 2017

With the mods permission I can do this, not so much for the benefit of the OP but rather the beginners on the site. - Daniela2041, Sep 8, 2017

Ah I could answer them all now - Mardle, Sep 8, 2017

To not give the answer in Spanish, I would have gone: history, art, psychology, geography, spanish, literature, math. I have never seen a class really entitled biography or leaders. Maybe that's just me. :) - bosquederoble, Sep 8, 2017

When I first read it I hadn't read class as in lesson. - Mardle, Sep 9, 2017

True, it could be that I also read it more as a course. :) - bosquederoble, Sep 9, 2017

Answer 3

For some of these, you can just plug the answers in English into the translator here. If you run into problems, let us know.

Translations don't necessarily give the categories that they belong in. - Daniela2041, Sep 8, 2017
