Speaking vs knowledge

☁️ When you want to "stop by" or "pay a quick visit"! 🏠👋

The word "Visit" often sounds a bit too formal or like something from a textbook. When native speakers want to describe a short, casual, or unplanned visit, they use this phrase:

💬 Drop by.
/drɒp baɪ/
(To visit someone unexpectedly or for a short time)

✅ Examples for different levels:

🔸 B1 (Intermediate):
"Can I drop by your house tonight for a coffee?"

🔸 B2 (Upper-Intermediate):
"I’ll drop by the office later to pick up my laptop."

🔸 C1 (Advanced):
"Feel free to drop by anytime you’re in the neighborhood; I’m usually home."

Mrs Frisby looked again at the sun and saw that she faced an unpleasant choice. She could go home by the same roundabout way she had come, in which case she would surely end up walking alone in the woods in the dark — a frightening prospect, for at night the forest was alive with danger. Then the owl came out to hunt, and foxes, weasels and strange wild cats stalked among the tree trunks. The other choice would be dangerous, too, but with luck it would get her home before dark. That would be to take a straighter route, across the farmyard between the barn and the chicken house, going not too close to the house but cutting the distance by half. The cat would be there somewhere, but by daylight — and by staying in the open, away from the shrubs — she could probably spot him before he saw her.
The cat: He was called Dragon. Farmer Fitzgibbon’s wife had given him the name as a joke when
he was a small kitten pretending to be fierce. But when he grew up, the name turned out to be an apt one. He was enormous, with a huge, broad head and a large mouth full of curving fangs, needle sharp. He had seven claws on each foot and a thick, furry tail, which lashed angrily from side to side. In colour he was orange and white, with glaring yellow eyes; and when he leaped to kill, he gave a high, strangled scream that froze his victims where they stood.

SAN JUAN 3.

Oficialmente conocido como el Mercado Ernesto Pugibet por la calle en la que se encuentra, el clásico Mercado de San Juan puede ser un poco difícil de encontrar. Fue construido en el sitio de la antigua fábrica de cigarros  el Buen Tono y a veces escucharás ese nombre para la Plaza San Juan. El mercado y la plaza se llaman así por el nombre cristianizado del vecindario, “San Juan Moyotlan“.  Moyotlan es el nombre náhuatl del vecindario  más antiguo de Tenochtitlan que significaba “vecindario de mosquitos.”

El mercado de San Juan es más famoso por vender alimentos “gourmet” lo cual en México significa que son alimentos importados y europeos. De hecho, en el mercado no hay  dificultades para encontrar alimentos enlatados y en conserva y una excelente selección de quesos y carnes estilo “deli”.  El mercado también es uno de los favoritos entre muchos de los restauranteros más exclusivos de la Ciudad. Puedes encontrar todo tipo de productos de otros estados de México, además de algunas cosas de Europa, Asia y América.

A menudo lo más impresionante para los visitantes son los puestos de fruta y verduras donde la producción suele ser más limpia y brillante que en mercados similares lo que los convierte en puestos ideales para realizar excelentes fotos.  Los fines de semana, es posible que el mercado esté realmente lleno de invitados internacionales y de otras ciudades.

Originalmente era un mercado temporal para vendedores desplazados por una reorganización de los mercados de la ciudad en 1933.  Este sitio solía ser un almacén para la fábrica de cigarros del Buen Tono. La iglesia del Buen Tono a la vuelta de la esquina en la Plaza de San Juan es todo lo que queda de esa que, alguna vez, fue una importante fábrica local.
