the English translation of "la puedes cocinar a la plancha" is rendered as "you can cook it on the plancha".  Is "plancha" an English word? I have never heard it before and I don't know what it means.  I looked it up and it says "flat top grill".  I'm not even sure what that is.  Is "plancha" a word that is used in Brittish English?

Hola

I'm confused as to why this lesson exists. Doesn't this one Using se debe/n and se puede/n + infinitive to say you must / you can (passive) already cover it??

thanks

In the last line, why " vive a Madrid" not " vive en Madrid"?

Hay and hace both seem to use nouns but they don't seem to be interchangeable.  I'm puzzled as to why, for example, it's hace calor but hay humedad.

Gracias por compartir esta canción. Me gusta mucho.

I don't understand ¿Por dónde vas? because the translation isn't good English. Do you mean 'where are you?' or 'where are you up to?' (in a book) or 'How far up the road have you got?' 

Or perhaps 'where are you at?' is modern usage that I've just never heard before.
