I suggest another song suitable for practicing: Me gustas tu by Manu chao.
Hola
With the expression pasarselo bien, I have seen examples elsewhere written "la estoy pasando bien" (ie no reflexive pronoun and a feminine direct object pronoun) Please could you explain what the "la" refers to and if both expressions are interchangeable?
Gracias

Hola,
I don't understand how 'debido a que' is a wrong answer in the test for this question?
Ella dejó a su marido ________ su mal humor y sus celos.She left her husband because of his bad temper and jealousy.
I guess it's because it's a combination of nouns (humor, celos) without any further embellishment, but it's confused me because of the explanation referring to a noun, rather than nouns plural:
"If we use debido a que, it can never be followed just by a noun, it needs a phrase."
Gracias,
I don't know how to access the audio. Please advise.
The last sentence of Cachapas is: es de un sabroso que ni te imaginas. Why not: es de un sabor que ni te imaginas.??
One of the questions testing the present subjunctive of haber is:
Los pájaros irán donde ________comida.
With the correct answer being haya.
I understand the subjunctive being used in cases of hope, desire etc but I don't understand why it is used in this case rather than 'hay'.
Thanks.
Why can't we use 'hecho en casa' for homemade instead of casero/a?
"Do you have a cellphone?" (formal) = "Tiene usted un celular".
Yes yes yes, I know it's more common to have "Usted tiene" but that is also more ambiguous of a statement vs a question. "Tiene usted" leaves no question of it AND it's presented in the lesson as possible and I was still marked wrong saying I should have just used "Tiene". That is a real basic mistake for a website that I trust to teach me more Spanish than I have learned on Duolingo, especially when Inma already stated below apparently you added it to correct answers a year ago.
Hi,
Does the section headed "Bear in mind that their regular superlative forms can also be used" mean that there are two ways to say "The youngest of my brothers is called Juan:
El menor de mis hermanos se llama Juan.
and
El más menor de mis hermanos se llama Juan.
Thanks
