    Oops! Learned the hard way to include "con."

    "Yo como con mi tía" and "Yo como mi tía" are two very different sentences.

      Yep. You need a personal 'a' in that second sentence. ;)

          Como con mi tia should be accepted as well.

                  Its the difference between "my" and "mine". "Mi tia" = my aunt, but "mia tia" = mine aunt.

                    So, If you speak like an LOTR dwarf, your answer will be counted wrong.

                      Sadly, this is the case Sammorland. I do want mine percentage to go up to mine goal of the fifty one.

                        Why is "Yo como con tia mia." not accepted?
