What time is it? Sharp hours in Spanish
Once we have had a throwback on our number’s vocabulary and rechecked them it is time to tell – what time is it?- . Let’s see it and check the small differences from English then: ¿QUÉ HORA ES? WHAT TIME IS (IT)? 1:00 → ES LA UNA (IT) IS THE ONE → (IT’S ONE) ◊ […]

Once we have already explained the weird grammatical format of our very own expression of -How’s the weather like?- in another post, let’s start using it. First remember, once again: ¿QUÉ TIEMPO HACE EN BARCELONA? WHAT WEATHER MAKES IN BARCELONA? → (How’s the weather like in Barcelona?) EN BARCELONA HACE CALOR IN BARCELONA MAKES HEAT […]
We are going to learn how to express, as the title of this post says, the weather. We have actually two ways to express so, and both are completely fine. One of these ways is (as we do in English to describe the weather) using the verb SER. The other one, is a very own […]
To start the post, we first are going to see vocabulary related to periods of time; from seconds, up to years. It will take us to the final vocabulary step that is the seasons of the year. Let’s start: INGLÉS ESPAÑOL SECOND SEGUNDO MINUTE MINUTO HOUR HORA DAY DÍA WEEK SEMANA Semana!! Here it […]
