Learn Spanish with SpanishPod101.com! A starry night, a bacony, cigarettes..Sounds relaxing. Join Bea and Joseph for this lesson about starry nights on a rooftop terrace and an introduction to the grammar associated with negative commands. In Newbie 19, we discussed the use of the verb “oír” (to hear), as a command to get the attention of someone: “¡Oye, ven para acá!” (Hey, come here!). For this 19th installment of the Peruvian Series, we introduced a new verb that we use in the context of a command. The verb “Alucinar”, which literally means “to hallucinate”, is often used in Peru to say something along the lines of “imagine!” when we are talking about something surprising. Don’t forget to reference this lesson with Newbie 19, Iberian 19, and Costa Rican 19 lessons.
