Right, maybe we can use these pics, I often did with my english lessons, and they should work here, too. Let's see.
Fairly simple: say (in Spanish) whatever comes to your mind as you look at the pics. Maybe just a word, enough There you go |
If you're learning English, do that in English.
Good exercise to improve performance. :) |
Verdad, cómico, cuidado, qué, ironía
|
The words that came to mind for me: mentira - asalto - cuidado - jugar - choque. Not ver original I guess. :)
|
It's funny we said opposites for the first one. My thinking was "yea, it's the truth that they say one thing and you get another."
|
Opposites are close in our mind. Funny that verdad-mentira pair. It's like the glass, half-full or half empty :)
Asalto and comico for the second, coool Better than asalto, atraco, leaves the irony out :( Un asalto is something bigger, maybe military. Comico is fine, also jocoso. Both agree on the bear, right? We say cuidado half a second before the bear slips :) Que and jugar....I don't get it...I would just say ¡Tonto! Ironia y choque...Un choque de trenes, los coches tienen golpes. Good...next stage. Imagine you are describing the pic to a person who can't see it. Try to do that in no more than 3 sentences...Choose your favourite pic, don't need to do them all |
¡Qué diversión!

2.- Good! You got the irony :) 3.- Spanglish. The expression is 'Se me paso de la mente...' Good try:thumbsup: 4.- lol. Un cazacabezas en spanish is an indian, one of those who would shrink heads (jíbaros) 5.-Is cool :) |
Yep, I knew 3 was Spanglish. I was mixing the English 'slipped my mind' with the Spanish saying so that I could play on the word slipped!
|
It would work only if your partner speaks fluent english...
