Correct me please in the video below at 10:00 she says, Se te olvido el nombre. The name forgot you?

Is this a way of accidental as well, something accidently forgot itself to you?

Question about an example in a test

In the example below, why is it 'aprovechó' and not 'se aprovechó de'? It seems quite a negative context to me, and the context even seems to be leading us towards using the reflexive form by saying 'el muy egoísta'.

Rafa, [being] such an idiot, took advantage of the moment to break up with me. : Rafa, el muy egoísta, ___ la ocasión para romper conmigo.

En 1992 y 2011 España reformó ________ Constitución.

Could we use "el" in this context? No possessive is used with body parts; it seemed that a constitution is a part of government, and not "owned" by it.

Nicaragua isn't a city

"Nicaragua está en el puesto número seis en la lista de ciudades seguras..."

This has me confused because Nicaragua is not a city. Maybe I'm misunderstanding the sentence?

question said I was wrong when I wasn'tEsta ________ mi antigua escuela.This used to be my old school.(HINT: Conjugate irregular “ser” in the imperfect past/El Pretérito Imperfecto. Example: "ella tenía" = she had/used to have)

Esta solía ser mi antigua escuela.

I'm pretty sure that I'm right and it puts "era". I know that "solía ser" is even more accurate than "era".
