BEGINNERS COURSE, SPRING 2023, CLASS 2

 Week 2

WE revised all of what we did last week.

Buenos días – good morning

Buenas tardes (or Buenas) – good afternoon

¿Qué tal? = ¿Cómo estás? – How are you?

Estoy bien – I’m fine

Estoy fatal – I’m terrible

 

¿Cómo te llamas? – What’s your name?

Me llamo

We added another question

¿De dónde eres? – Where are you from?

Soy de Irlanda – I am from Ireland.

 

In Spanish we have pronouns, like in English, but they are often left out

Yo soy – I am

Soy – I am (leaving out the “yo”, as it is not needed)

 


We talked about the family

Mi padre – my father

Mi madre – my mother

Mi hermano – my brother

Mi hermana – my sister

Mi hijo – my son

Mi hija – my daughter

Mi mujer – my wife

Mi marido – my husband



 

We concentrated on two questions

¿Tienes….? – Do you have…?

¿Tienes hermanos? – Do you have brothers and sisters?

¿Tienes hijos? – Do you have children?

The answer is “Tengo…” – I have…

Tengo un hijo y una hija – I have one son and one daughter

Tengo un hermano y una hermana – I have one brother and one sister
