There are a few things you should be aware of:
- Accent marks are important, and skipping them in Spanish is just as bad as leaving out all of your punctuation. A computer can't tell what you meant to write it can only check exactly what you typed. So if you don't include the correct accents, the computer will consider your answer incorrect.
- Many times when you translate a word from one language to another, there is more than one alternative. However, for the purposes of computer assisted language learning, we must limit ourselves to one possibility. Keep that in mind with the vocabulary games and quizzes. If the word you are looking for is not there, consider an alternate translation. Remember, the same thing will occur in live conversation too.
