Confusing hint

I had the correct answer to the question below........until I read the hint which totalaly confused me as "Retrasar" was present in gerundial form in one of the possible choices.

Choose the right sentence in Spanish for "Come on, don't fall behind!":HINT: retrasarse = to fall behind¡A no retrasando!¡Vamos, no os retrasáis!¡Andando que os retrasáis!¡Estéis retrasados!


This question relates to:Spanish lesson "Using the Spanish gerund as a command "

Hola Ian

I understand why that can be confusing. I changed that option to a different one. The reason why we have the hint giving the infinitive of the verb "retrasarse" is because we had two options in the menu using the subjunctive of "retrasarse" so having the infinitive form in the hint would help them choose the right form of the subjunctive in the options. But the focus of the command in this sentence is really the first part of the sentence where it is saying "come on" ("andando")
