Business days...

excuse my wording, but what the f*ck are they? I've heard that monday to friday are business days- but then what about 6 business days, do u just gloss over the weekend, or do you make saturday and sunday business days when their turn is up? Like for example: "honey i'll be gone for 8 business days, have fun!" how long are those 8 "business" days context: i am not native, yet i have a c1 level of education with a high vocab in english (including the term business days), but of some choice things i am just completely unaware of the meaning

what do you call a person who can distinguish between different tastes in the same food?

For example if they can notice the different notes of the coffee or tell you what are the spices used in the meal. do we say he/she has a strong taste? or there is other adjectives?

what is this

what is this

Hi, I'm having a moment where I don't know how to translate "andamio" from Spanish. Translators are telling me "platform" is ok and I think I've heard it referred to as such, but I'm pretty sure this could be another word as well I'm referring to this thing

Can you actually learn a language using a language learning app like Duolingo?

I see a lot of language learning apps, and I am not sure if they are actually useful or not. Can they be used as the main tool to learn?

What sentence do you think is written correctly?

1. It is me who am wrong. 2. It is I who am wrong. 3. It is me who is wrong. 4. It is I who is wrong. In my opinion, I think 2, 3 and 4 are all correct, but 2 will be the most formal and archaic, 3 will be the most casual and 4 will be used in a formal context nowadays. It is just my speculation, how about you? Thank you very much!

What a native English speaker would say in this instance...

Here's the scenario. A mom is feeding her kid with a spoon in the kitchen. Someone from the living room asks her to come. In this scenario is it natural for a native English speaking mom to say "I can't. I'm feeding the kid"? If not what would be a natural response? Thanks in advance!
