dejé = i left     deje = leave!

im more intigued by the ser-estar choice for "being" correct. I would say that something "es" correct unless you are specifically drawing attention to a particular instance. Even then estar feels wrong to me because This time it really "IS" correct. Aarrggh it messes with my head. Sounds like the sort of thing they could really disagree over in pa que sepas when they get back.

A quick google search reveals discussions in spanish where they say things like 
¿es "está correcto" correcto o está "es correcto" correcto?
which is not very helpful.

more confused than ever!

Perhaps you're right. No wonder I'm having problems!

For an unidentified object I believe you're correct. However, in this case the object is not unidentified.

I guess it doesn't really matter. I think I should concentrate on the easy stuff first.

when you find the easy stuff let me know :-)

Id have gone with correcto though i cant really say why. Im always a bit suspicious of  situations where the gender of an unspoken object is referred to as it calls for a finely tuned sense of telepathy on the part of the listener/reader

e.g.

creo (que) deje está correcta

 you say you were referring to la palabra but could you not have been referring to uso de deje which would be masculine or the infected verb form deje itself which, i guess, has no gender 

you should certainly modify correct@s to agree for gender and plurality. pero, en este caso, no estoy seguro que sea (esté) correct@ hacer lo/la. :-)

another good question for the team if ever i saw one.

I learn better when i really understand what I´m doing, but your point about going with something even though you don´t know why is a good one. So many times I think I say things just because they sound right. However it´s so good having people that know so much more than me to assist with my learning. Spanishpod is great. 

muchas gracias todos.

re: unidentified asexual objects

Thanks for the link. I didn't understand a word of it, but there was an advertisement "2 Rules for a flatter stomach" that I can relate to! :-) lol

A el equipo Spanishpod digo muchísimas graciás para todas las lecciones, son muy divertidos. Cómo se dice "Soy "hooked on" spanishpod.com"

Tengo una pregunta:

¿Cúal es la diferencía si dije "quisiera pedir" en vez de me gustaría pedir? Yo sé que ambos significa "I would like" pero en cuanto al contexto ¿cúal es mejor y por qué?

Graciás

Chica

There is no reason that both cannot apply to the same object, but they are different viewpoints.

desire for and pleasure of possession if and when.
