Cultural Tip
In most Spanish‑speaking countries "súper" is a casual, youthful way to intensify an adjective. In formal writing or presentations you’d usually replace it with "muy", "sumamente" or "excepcionalmente". Also, note that "ballet" keeps its French spelling and pronunciation, but the "ll" is pronounced as /ʎ/ in many regions and as /j/ in others.
