I see this verb in movie subtitles all the time. Mostly crime or suspense thrillers. Thanks for explaining it’s very helpful

This might be repeating what someone has already said, but if one were to get to the essence of the idea connecting the three, it would be “dealing with” something to me. A doctor deals with a health problem, how you deal with other people, what a book deals with. I love the way you think!

Muy buena tu explicación. Te agrego el sustantivo de tratar, que es TRATO. Se puede traducir como DEAL. Por ejemplo un dicho muy común: Trato hecho, jamás deshecho. Saludos desde Argentina!

The last example, "Esta película trata la exlusión social ..." is using the tratar as "to treat" but in this sense: : the action or manner of dealing with something (such as a topic) often in a specified way. So this película is "treating" (as in a "treatment" on/of) the topic of "exlusión social." It helps to understand this if you are English and you know the meaning of 'treatise' ... i.e., a " treatment" of a topic in a in-depth way.

In the 3rd situation, I think of, e.g., "The article treated the topic carefully." Or "the book provided a thorough treatment of the impact of ozone." The same with the use of "trata" without "de" as in your e.g. of the film being about... .

Yo también tengo una pregunta para hispanohablantes, entonces sigue leyendo ... (No te preocupes de el inglés) Can you do a video on the differences between 'Bien' and 'bueno' please? Also I have a question for spanish speakers. Quiero aprender de las deferencias usas de la palabra 'bueno'. Lo sé mucho de las usas pero a veces me confundo y no puedo decir que significa, por ejemplo estaba leyendo algo unos días atrás y va así ... "¿Hablas inglés?" Bueno. ¿Que lo significa aquí? Muchas gracias por leer este.

Is that all there was? Or is this dialogue missing something? "Bueno" can mean "okay," "fine," "alright" -- anything like that. I can't be sure of what somebody meant by "bueno" without more context, but that's my best guess here.
