Hablaste

Today I hosted the Potter Book Club. It was a LOT of work, not only did I have to read the chapter, which was extra long this week, I had to come up with something to do. Summy and Anouska gave me a pass to read together in the meeting, but I took the challenge and created some hangman games using phrases from the chapter. I can't take credit for the idea, since I stole it from another event, but I did find a site that made it easy to create the games. It was fun!

Also today we are at two months of our three month challenge! I am thankful to our instructor, to my coach Joyce and my fellow students for helping me through. I've come a long way in just two months and I'm motivated to keep it up! Shakira produced our story for today and w/ Nigel's help performed it for us. It was a gory story about a man who murdered women on behalf of his wife. It went super fast for me, so there were parts that I didn't quite catch, but it was really entertaining and I understood the basic story. So yay! And well done Shakira and Nigel.

Finally, I reviewed Language Transfer Track #64. On this one Mihalis explains the final two 'Point in the Past' tenses: you (formal) and they. So back to our 'hook' verbs (hablar and comer).
  • hablaste - you spoke
  • hablaron - they spoke
  • comiste - you ate
  • comieron - they ate
He also makes note of the 'i' being important in this tense for the -ER and -IR verbs as compared to -AR verbs.
  • hablé - comí
  • habló - comió
  • hablamos - comimos
  • hablaste - comiste
  • hablaron - comieron
And here's my musical hook for today.

  2. That hangman game was so much fun! You need to share the link with us so we can use it. The story was fast (and a bit gory) for me too lol. It looked and sounded amazing though.
