Sprinklers in a room • Siempre me pregunto a quien se le pudo ocurrir para que sea necesario pedir que por favor no lo hagan...I always wonder who could’ve thought of such a thing that it becomes necessary to ask not to do it...

In Spanish we PASS the time we don't SPEND it :) • As you know this weekend for me is slightly housebound and these 4D cityscape puzzles are a great way to PASAR EL TIEMPO. • Hobby = pasatiempo • So, ¿cuál es tu pasatiempo favorito? What's your favourite pastime? • Now, it's time to conquer Toronto! Hasta pronto, Debbie #spanishtidbits #speakspanish #funwithspanish #practicespanish #4dpuzzles #lovepuzzles #lovespanish

As Arnold so brilliantly said in the movie Junior. Love that movie line! Poner = to put/set Ponerse = to put on/wear PONGO el libro sobre la mesa - I PUT the book no the table. ¿Dónde puse mis llaves? Where did I put my keys? Tengo que PONER la mesa - I have to SET the table. Me voy a PONER un vestido rojo - I am going to PUT ON/WEAR a red dress.

When you have the Spanish and emoji keyboards on your phone, and you type the word "vela" the first emoji that comes up as an option is a sailboat, ⛵️ however, if you type "velas" candles come up 🎂 They are both right as vela has those meanings and many others, and it is also used in many expressions. Let's look at a few: Pasar la noche en vela is when you didn't sleep at all (or barely) for whatever reason, work, worry, studies, etc. You can say: ayer pasé la noche en vela. A la luz de la vela - under candlelight (we covered this one in a previous post) Me gustan los barcos de vela (also called veleros). - I like sailboats. When somebody says: "no tuve vela en el entierro" it means that they didn't have anything to do with whatever happened. Velar can be, to look out for someone or to have a wake for someone. And the last one for today... if you are a photographer and still develop film, if you open the film outside of the dark room "se puede velar" you'll loose it all. Ahora vayan a toda vela - Now go at full sail 😃 Hasta pronto Debbie #spanishtidbits #speakspanish #learnspanish #practice #fun #funwithspanish #lovespanish #español #sleeplessnights

I always come out with a lovely gift from my dentist after my cleaning, love it! SALIR is also a verb that has many meanings and it is used in various expressions. Let's look at some of them: SALGO por la puerta principal - I GO OUT/LEAVE through the main door. El sol SALE por el Este - The sun COMES UP/RISES from the East. No te preocupes, todo SALIÓ bien - don't worry, everything TURNED OUT fine. Some expressions: Esto va a SALIR CARO - this is going to be expensive. No puedo creer que SALIMOS VIVOS - I can't believe we came out alive. Jorge SALIÓ PERDIENDO - Jorge ended up loosing. Those are just a few. Share in the comments some others you may have heard.
