自転車の看板や、めがねの看板やそのほか 
いろんな看板が、あるものは新しいペンキでかかれ、
あるものは、古い壁のようにはげていましたが、
町に はじめて出てきた子狐にはそれらのものが
いったい何であるか分らないのでした。
とうとう帽子屋がみつかりました。
お母さんが道々よく教えてくれた、
黒い大きなシルクハットの帽子の看板が、
青い電燈に照らされて かかっていました。
子狐は教えられた通り、トントンと戸を叩きました。

「こんばんは」
　
すると、中では何かことこと音がしていましたが
やがて、戸が一寸ほどゴロリとあいて、
光の帯が道の白い雪の上に 長く伸びました。
子狐はその光が まばゆかったので、めんくらって、
まちがった方の手を、
――お母さまが出しちゃいけないと言って
よく聞かせた方の手を 
すきまから さしこんでしまいました。

En este episodio Hablaremo sobre Los Roques no es solo un destino turístico, es un tesoro natural que representa la belleza del Caribe venezolano. 💛💙❤️

Visitarlo es como desconectarse del mundo y reconectarse con la naturaleza.

Y además, ¡es una excelente manera de aprender español mientras viajas!

Si algún día vienes a Venezuela, no puedes perderte este paraíso azul.
Y recuerda: “viajar es aprender”.

Welcome to the 10th episode of The Grammarian Podcast! In this milestone episode, we’re tackling a common issue many English learners face: the usage of "to" with verbs.

We’ll dive into:
- When to use "to" with verbs (after certain verbs, adjectives, and to show purpose)
- When NOT to use "to" (modal verbs, causative verbs, and verbs of perception)
- Common mistakes and how to avoid them
- Practical tips and exercises to help you put your knowledge into practice

Feel free to comment your answers below—I’ll be checking and providing feedback to help you improve. Let’s make this your best episode yet!
