Cloudy with a Chance of Spanish.

Lesson:

·        *In order to be able to survive in a Spanish speaking country one of the MAIN things you’re going to NEED to know and do is ask about the weather.

1. ¿Qué tiempo hace?  =  What’s the weather today?

Que (KAY) tiempo (Tee-EM-PO) hace (A-se)

**Today answer people respond by saying Hace, which means “it is” followed by the weather.
 Look at the picture below, and say the sayings above to see what each weather term means!

**watch this video on a stopping a friend from carrying an extra unnecessary item!
              *Hace Sol  

       Hace Calor

 

 

            Hace Frio 

 

               Hace fresco  

           Hace viento 

               Hace buen tiempo 




              Hace mal tiempo 



 

           Esta nevando   

         Esta lloviendo 

                Esta nublado

 

In order to know how to get someone’s phone number - or give yours - you need to know the numbers first!

Now that you know the numbers, it’s time to lean the question. 

There are a few ways to ask for someone’s phone number.

One is: ¿Cuál es tu número de teléfono? 

This should be used amongst friends and peers. 

To ask someone with higher authority than yourself their phone number, you should change the “tu”, to “su”. So it is now “¿Cuál es tu número de teléfono?”

If someone asks you your number, you should respond with “Mi teléfono es...” or “Es el...”

While on your spanish-speaking adventure, you would not like to be rude or offend another person, so you must know how to properly greet someone, ask how they are doing, and then say goodbye. Our first step will show proper greetings:

            After you have greeted the person, you should politely ask them how are they doing. How do I ask them that? you may ask. Well, you're about to learn!

What if they ask you how YOU are doing? What are appropriate responses? Here is a way to learn them!

*NOTE: Once someone has asked you how you are doing and you respond with an emotion word, you should tag a "gracias" (thank you) onto your response, as this is the polite thing to do. Example:
                        Person 1: ¿Cómo estás?
                        Person 2: Muy bien, gracias!

There are a few other vocab words/phrases that you should learn to be polite. For example, if someone asks you how you're doing and you respond saying that you are doing well, would you just leave it at that? Or shouldn't you ask how THEY are doing? Yes, you should! And so, take a look at our chart to find out how you would say that. Also, you should regard all the other phrases in the chart, to make sure you're prepared to be a smart, polite, spanish-speaking person!

​Lastly, let's learn how to say goodbye!
