Asking about the Copa Mundial

Asking about the Copa Mundial
 

What would be the most common way of asking an employee of a restaurant if they are going to be showing the world cup games on TV.

In English we would say "Are you going to have the games on TV?" or "Are you showing the WC on TV?" etc.

In Spanish?

¿Van a mostrar/pasar/traer los juegos de la copa mundial?

In Mexico: "¿Van a poner los partidos del Mundial?" / "¿Van a poner el Mundial?" ;)

Se me pasó esa!!!!!! :eek: :)

En España
"¿A que hora empezáis?" :D :D :D

realmente es lo que dice Angélica. :rose:
Saludos :D

Supongo que quieres decir que está claro que van a poner los partidos, no hace falta preguntar si los van a poner o no. De acuerdo completamente. :D

¿Van a pasar el Mundial? would be the most common here.

As a curious thing, here in schools you can watch the World Cup games... even they have made some ridiculous books "to make the most" of the football games for the kids. In summary, kids will be watching the World Cup instead of been studying.

I mean, really - isn't the World Cup more important than maths?

By the way, Ookami - I just got my Argentina Soccer jersey. It doesn't say "Messi" on it. Do they really consider Maradona to be "god-like" in Argentina? :)

Maradona parece más un cerdo que un diós. En serio ¿piensas llevar un jersey?:erm:
¿Cuál será tu equipo preferido? ¿Boca Juniors?

Generally, we consider it a "god-like" in football skills and someone not worth talking about in all the other things. But maybe among(between can go here?) poor people, that generally is less educated(yes, it sounds bad but it's the[capitalism] true), yes, it's like a god-like.

¿Pensás ir a la cancha a ver a algún equipo jugar laepelba :D?

---------------------
Observé que el futból es una verdadera obsesión en la Argentina.

¿Qué te hace pensar eso?

Children watch football matches in class, so they they don't "miss" school! :rolleyes:

Thanks poli, lol I used "it" for a person, well, Maradona...

Yes, football here is important for most people, sometimes even in a violent way. But as I don't like football, I don't know much about that enviroment.

It would not be strange if next president is a football manager.

Well, there's no way I'd endanger my life by wearing a US team jersey in Argentina during the World Cup!! So I got an Argentine jersey so that I can fit in. :)

I don't know if I'll have the time to see a game in person while I'm in Argentina, but will definitely watch the games on TV!! :)

Para alguien visitando, me parece mejor visitar Café Tortoni. Un café con unas medialunas alli puede ser muy agadable, y no tiene que sentir obligada llevar un jersey.

It's not like I'll get my choice of where I want to go. This is a college group, and although I'm twice the age of anyone else in the group (including the professor), I will still be required to do whatever the group does. :eek:

Besides, I am sure that one visit to the Cafe Tortoni will be more than enough for me because I'm not a big fan of doing lots of "touristy" things. I want to do what real bonaerenses do! :)

Claro, si se puede evitar ir a la cancha, recomiendo hacerlo; pero es una actividad que los "bonaerenses reales" suelen hacer, excluyéndome a mi, que parezco ser una ilusión.
¿Sabés que nunca visité ese café?

Algo tal vez lindo para hacer es ir al teatro Colón, que dicen tiene una acústica única en el mundo. (aunque con las restauraciones no sé si se mantiene, porque nadie pudo averiguar en dónde reside lo que la hace especial para no modificarlo mientras se arreglaba)

¿Terminaron de arreglarlo?

I think that I've read that they finished the repairs. I would LOVE to go to el teatro Colón! I've been reading all about it. It is supposed to be one of the world's top opera houses. I just don't know if I will be allowed to venture out on my own....

:shh:Just sneak into the subway (subte) y vete o toma un taxi. I won't tell. I promise.:angel:
