In the example, "You have already slept enough for today," what is the reason for using 'lo' here: "Ustedes ya han dormido lo suficiente por hoy."
In the last line, why " vive a Madrid" not " vive en Madrid"?
Why is Cómo estás? wrong when the question asks for all possible answers for asking an elderly man? What if an elderly man is asking another elderly man?
For the quiz question: "Mira a ese chico, ¡qué bueno está!
having both
" Look at that guy! He is hot!"
and
" Look at that guy! He is cute!"
as possible answers is confusing. In American English at least, there can be a great deal of overlap between hot and cute in terms of indicating sexual attractiveness. (Cute can also be applied to, say, a puppy whereas it's unlikely you would say a puppy was hot unless you meant it quite literally. It's debatable whether a cute puppy could grow into a hot dog.)
In spite of the hint that 'esos' refer to more abstract things, in the test above ( cakes) why would it be esos not eses?

The english says “.. I wouldn’t trust them”. The spanish word for “them” is missing.

I am struggling to work out the semantic structure and 'rationale' of this piece: "Ni qué decir tiene que no necesitas, ni flores en el pelo, ni vestido de flamenca,..." - particularly its first four words?
Hello, I'm wondering why the subjunctive here is used but then not in the same sentence:
"no la dejes ir y cuida su amistad"
shouldn't it be: "no la dejes ir y cuide su amistad" since both are suggestions?
Thank you
The speakers are having a phone conversation.There, where you live, is it cold? : ___, donde tú vives ¿hace mucho frío?
Why is alli not possible in this question? Considering that they are on the phone, they might feel quite far apart from each other.
On the quiz, the question was: Es ________ hora; ven más tarde.
My answer was “una mala” and it was marked wrong. It was supposed to be just “mala”.
Could please explain why “una mala” is incorrect? It didn’t mention anything in the text about not using the article. Thanks.
