Nov 21, 2022 at 16:14 comment added capet Thanks @Lambie. I'll try to read it in Spanish so I get some "real-world" education along with my "weird question" education. I appreciate your help, both with my questions and your more general wisdom.

Nov 21, 2022 at 15:21 comment added capet Thanks @Lambie! How much do you think they deal explicitly with grammatical rules and unusual cases at lower levels?
Nov 21, 2022 at 15:09 comment added Lambie The Instituto Cervantes is the best place to learn Spanish: nyork.cervantes.es/en/classes_spanish/spanish_classes.htm I don't know where you are located but you can do a course online.
Nov 21, 2022 at 14:57 comment added capet Right now I'm working along two very separate tracks: one the one hand, I am doing some pretty linear, beginner-friendly lessons that focus on common situations. On the other hand, I'm asking all these annoying and uninformed questions on SE to try to get the bigger picture. I would be more comfortable laying off the annoying questions if I felt confident that my lessons were going to explicitly cover unusual cases. I think most people's teaching philosophy is that those are "advanced" topics to be covered later. But I just can't stay engaged that way.
Nov 21, 2022 at 14:56 comment added capet Can you recommend any beginner-level lessons or references that place a heavy emphasis on grammar and on "unusual cases"/"exceptions"?
