Thanks for these.

The opposite of aquí could be ahí, allí, or allá. (hay = there is/there are)

blanca - negra (this has already been entered (we use the masculine form when listing adjectives that have both a masculine and a feminine form))

On the "corregidme" that is typical Spanish. For Latinamérica is better "Corríjanme, por favor" :)

JPablo,
Gracias por tus correciones y clarificaciones. Una mas pregunta (one more question):
?hay un equivalente en español por estos antonimos: forward - backward? (is there an equivalent in Spanish for these antonyms: forward - backward)?
Gracias.

@Pablo: According to the DRAE, what you said is true about "extravertido" preferred over "extrovertido", but not about "introvertido". :)

@Angélica, thank you. (Sorry for the :footinmouth:.)
Yes, "introvertido" :good:
NOT "*intravertido" :bad:
