In Spanish how do you speak generally? As in not addressing a specific person. For example how would you say something like 'vegetables are good for you'? Is se used? Thankyou x

I understand what you're getting at with the whole "se" business. I asked a question about this yesterday as a matter of fact smileThis is the question I asked about "se" yesterday

"Se" doesn't refer to a specific person, you're right. So "Se baila" would be People [in general] dance here. "Se habla español" would be We [a general statement] speak Spanish here.

vegetables are good for you

In Spanish, this would be, "las verduras son buenas para la salud".

I hope I helped you smile
