calor - masculine noun (el) - heat, warmth. Look up calor in the dictionary

Los lagartos se calientan con el calor del sol.
Lizards warm themselves with the heat of the sun.

we learned this last chapter. Hace calor. It is hot. Right now here where I live it is Hace mucho frío! Tengo frío :P

Jessica, also today in my island makes cold, but normally in my island makes hot, but today it makes hot.

Corrections above.

????????, I didn't understand anything.

What don't you understand?

Hacer calor = To be hot
Hacer frio = To be cold

Hoy hace calor.
= It is hot today.
= Today it is hot.

En mi isla = On my island

Then my post would be of this way. Today on my island it's cold, but commonly on my island it's hot all the days, but with the climatic change it has changed, now on my island is a bit weird the weather, here always are raining and as I said before it's cold, really it's very strange.

I'm cold.

Luis, what temperature do you consider cold?

Then my post would be of this way.

:twocents:The word calor is used as feminine, la calor, for emphasis, mostly in andalusia

I didn't know that. In parts of Mexico it's also used in femenine, but it's considered substandard usage.
