The short version
Drop the word the reader can already supply
Spanish leaves out anything the context refills and marks the gap with a comma. Yo quiero café y ella, té. Repeating the verb sounds clumsy. Pair that with the dropped subject, which the verb ending already names, and a paragraph stops clattering.
Unos prefieren el mar; otros, la montaña.
That's the gist. The full article goes deeper - more examples, the edge cases, the why - and the practice below scores like a vocabulary session and earns the same XP.
