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."

Hola Inma,

¿Espero que estés bien? 

¡He disfrutado mucho este ejercicio con todas las expresiones idiomáticas! :)

Please could you let me know if I've understood these correctly in the context of the exercise: 

-higos a brevas= once in a blue moon.

-a tope= fully, to the fullest.

-de punta en blanco= dressed up to the nines, dressed to kill. 

-se mantiene en sus trece= digging his heels in, sticking to his guns (refusing to go).

Also, I'm unsure about the sentence which includes "ya he liado a mis amigos..."  Does liar here mean 'to manage to' or 'to trick'? 

Gracias 

This is a good topic.  Do we need a Direct Object pronoun with other pronouns, as in the following:

- (Les) saludé a todos.

- (La) busco a alguien.

- No (lo) ha visto a nadie.

Thanks.

no entiendo por que, en español , necesita usar "hay" por una oración: "Hay niebla" --pero, no puedo usa la misma estructura para la expresión -- "Esta soleando". Lo se que el ley es usar "hay" siguen por un noun y usa "hay" después un adjetivo  --pero no es "niebla" un adjetivo también? verdad?

do you use this verb In the same

way as gustar, encantar etc

You implied that we should use "Adentrarse en" but "Adentrarse por" was given in the answer without a reference to "Adentrarse en". Which is correct?

In another sentence you advised lit' "we dined on some sandwiches" but "en" was not included in "cenábamos unos bocadillos". A bit confusing, no?

Thank you!  I also found a very good website for pronunciation, listed by diphthongs, etc at:

which might be useful.

how can i know when to use  the subjunctive or  the indicative with Lo + adjetivo + es que+ subjuntivo / indicativo for example lo importante /raro /bueo 

I think playa is a feminine noun. No?
