CHISTES MEXICANOS

PEPITO GRAMÁTICA.

Hola, Hola, Camila desde Buenos Aires con un podcast para los viajeros y las viajeras!

Quiero hablar del reto de COMER LEJOS DE CASA.
Se que muchos de ustedes deben pensar "¿el reto?" "me encanta probar comida de otros países". Y si, entiendo eso, y a mi también me gusta. Pero ahora quiero que imaginen que por tres o cuatro meses no pueden comer comida de casa... nada, no hay en el lugar donde están, no encuentran, y lo poco que encuentran masomenos similar, no es realmente igual, ¿cómo se sentirían?

Analicemos un poco lo que representa la "comida de casa".

Te invito a explorar este podcast conmigo, y a ENTRENAR TU ESPAÑOL JUNTOS!

Disfruta de aprender

"Hablemos de Viajar" --- y la idea de "Comer lejos de casa"

conditional sentences(1st and 2nd)


Hello, guys! This is Kate. Hope you are doing just fine. And today we’re going back to conditional sentences. This is part two and if you haven’t listened to the first podcast, it’s highly recommended to go back and take a look at them.

Alright, today’s podcast is about the 1st and 2nd conditionals. 
First of all let’s revise the first conditional. As you remember, we use it to talk about the future. Here are some examples for you to refresh your memory:

-If you study hard, you’ll enter the university.
-She will be happy if she earns outrageous sums of money.

I hope you remembered this one guys, because we’re going straight to the second conditional.

Why do we need it? To talk about present events which are almost impossible.

Here are a couple of examples:

If I could go anywhere, I would go to South Korea.
If I had more money, I would travel a lot.
I would drop out of my university if my parents didn’t pay for it.


Let’s take a look at the structure:

If+Past Simple, S+would+V1.
And vice versa
S+would+V1 | If+Past Simple(if the sentence is reversed, we don’t use a comma!)



I hope it was useful, it was nice to share this info with you. Feel free to book lessons with me. Thank you and see you later!



Excellent at English with Kate K

Ep. 7: El cuento

PATTY: I’m really excited for Aunt Mary’s surprise birthday party
this afternoon! Aren’t you?
SUSAN: Yeah! How old is she?
PATTY:  She’ll be 55 on May 14 [fourteenth].
SUSAN: Wow! I didn’t know that my mom was older — she’s going
to be 57 on September 2 [second]. Anyway, Aunt Mary’s 
going to be so surprised to see us all here!
PATTY: I know! But we still have to get all the food set up before 
she gets here … OK! We’re all ready now. Shh! She’s here!
ALL: Surprise!


LANGUAGE NOTES
• I’m really excited … Notice the emphasis on “really.” “Really” is used to emphasize the 
adjective “excited” here.
• Birthday party Notice that the normal stress for a compound noun falls on the first 
element of the compound.
• Aren’t you? This negative tag is used to show that the speaker expects a positive 
answer. Patty assumes that Susan is also looking forward to the party.
• She’ll be 55 Notice that “55” is stressed here. This detail answers the question “How 
old is she?”
• Fourteenth Notice that we use “th” for ordinal numbers, starting with 4 [but first, 
second and third]. The stress is on the second syllable [fourTEENTH]. Compare this with 
“fortieth: 40th” [FORtieth].
• She’s going to be ... Notice how this is pronounced like “gonna be.” Instead of four 
syllables “go/ing/to/be” there are three syllables “ga/na/be.”

English is not my mother tongue, but over the years and with lots of dedication, I have reached the level of fluency, to the point where I can even teach the language. In today's episode, I want to share with you my experience and the things that helped me during my learning journey and hopefully it can help you too :)
