Video above, On vs L'onOn the video, I feel the explanation for "on vs l'on" (minute 6:18) is not applicable. I don't believe this is an example of euphony, because there are occasions that we use qu'on (unlike va-t-il, a clear example of euphony, that is never without a "t"). So, I think in this phrase, the first "on" is indefinite, but in the second part, having a point of reference, it becomes definite. Am I correct on this?

J'ai passéI'm so confused. Why is it "J'ai passé un an en Espagne" but "J'ai passé la journée avec Martin"? Why is one talking about the duration while the other is not?

Le héros?I just realized that it's un héro but le héros. Is there a reason for that? Are there any other nouns that have different spellings for the same gender going from un to le? Thanks.
