"Seria bom que a gente parasse por dez minutos."

Translation: It would be good if we stopped for ten minutes.

Why use "que" instead of "se" here? I wrote as my English answer "it would be good that we stop for 10 minutes". Is that incorrect?

Thats a hypotetical situation or an expression of wish (subjunctive) where we use QUE in Portuguese... http://www.semantica-portuguese.com/brazilian-portuguese-the-present-subjunctive-2313/ -- http://www.nativlang.com/po/qg_verbs_presentsubjunctive.htm -- http://www.gringoes.com/articles.asp?ID_Noticia=1462 --

I had also put "that" and not "if". I agree "if" is better in English, but it is the first time in 5 duolingo lessons on subjonctive past that "if" is used in this circumstance :(
I guess it will the other sentences will be corrected in the future :)
