How to say "to make..." in Spanish? I mean this more figuratively instead of literally. For example: You make me mad. The questions made me confused. The comment made everyone feel awkward. Etc. I have seen people use "hacerse" and "ponerse" but is there a difference? Which is better? Thanks

You can use "hacer" quite a bit, but in Spanish there are so many more reflexive verbs (i.e. llamarse, enfadarse, irse etc etc etc) which have a specific meaning, that in English we would use two or even three verbs for, instead of just one. It's one of the beautiful aspects of Spanish that between conjugations and verbs sentences can be short but still tell you just as much as twice the amount of words in English

"To make" is "Hacer" Then, You make me mad would be "Tú me haces enojar" or The comment made everyone feel awkward would be "El comentario hizo sentirse incómodos a todos".

Hello! In English we use 'to make...' or 'to get...' a LOT more than other languages do. In Spanish, you would use 'enojarse' or 'enfadarse'. When in doubt just go with the more direct verb!
