Scary! for the ponchos maybe , but not for the millions..

As for phrases.. mm how about.. ” Voy a entrarle a la cocina” .. ” Going into the kitchen” .. you say this when you are going to cook, or clean the kitchen.

Or for a compliment to a friend who cooked dinner ” Usted se la juega muchisimo cocinando” .. ” You are a really really good cook..”

As for terms.. we could make a whole lesson based on the items found in a kitchen. (not if is Carlos kitchen he only has a coffee maker and 2 cups)

P,

I agree. These lessons are a lot of fun to listen to! And, I think with Nati and Carlos, we really get a “flavor” of Costa Rican Spanish!

Nati,

Carlos’ kitchen sounds interesting… How many different dishes can he make with a coffee pot and 2 cups!?!?! (*I’m afraid to hear the answer)

¡Ya pues, Carlos! ¡Tú sabes que has tratado de preparar una sopa de paquete en esa cafetera más que una vez! Jeje…

Some other terms we can put on the list: cocer (to cook), cocinar (to cook), cocina (kitchen/cuisine/stovetop)…

There’as actually a difference between possessive adjectives and possessive pronouns. Here’s the distinction.

“Es tu libro” (It’s your book.)
[here, “tu” (your) is an adjective that modifies the noun “libro” (book)]

but…

“El libro es luyo” (The book is yours.)
[here, “tuyo” (yours) is a pronoun that replaces the noun it modifies]

In Spanish, we have both possessive adjective and pronouns.

Make sense?
