Using the Article

Even though 'Facebook' is a proper name, Spanish speakers often use the masculine article 'el' before it: 'el Facebook'. This makes it feel more like a general object or service.

Mistake:Publicar a Facebook (Posting *to* Facebook)

Correction: Publicar en Facebook (Posting *in/on* Facebook). Always use 'en' when talking about actions happening on the platform.
