Los Meses y Las Fechas: The Months and the Dates

Posted by Tobias Hahn in SP1-011 on
​Los Meses y Las Fechas
The Months and the Dates

To know the months and the dates in Spanish and how to ask what the date is, there are a few things you need to know. The first is the names of the months in Spanish. You'll also need to know the numbers 1-31. Both are in the Quizlet set below.
To say today is a certain date, you can say "Hoy es" and then the date. Dates are said in the following format: *day* de *month*. For example: "Hoy es el diez de septiembre." You can ask what date today is by saying "Que dia es hoy?" 
Now you know the dates and months in Spanish. Here's a video of how it is used in action.

El tiempo: the weather

El Tiempo: The Weather
How to ask what the weather is in Spanish

To ask what the weather is in Spanish, you'll first need to know the types of weather. To help you learn, I've prepared the following Quizlet set.
If a phrase starts in hace, you can add "very" by inserting "bastante" after hace. For instance, "Hace bastante frio" means "It's very cold." When using it on fresco, it may be better to use "frio" instead.
You can also say "it rains a lot" by adding "mucho" after lloviendo. This also works for nevando, but you will have to change it to "nieva."
You can say it's partly or mostly cloudy by adding "mayormente" or "parcialmente" after está and before nublado.
Another thing you will need to learn is temperature. To learn how to say the temperature in Spanish, use the Quizlet set below.

After saying "La temperatura máxima es..." or "La temperatura mínima es..." add a number and then "grados." For "Ahorita estamos a #​ grados," substitute a number for #. Celsius is standard for temperature in Spanish. 
Now that you know the types of weather and temperature, you can learn to ask what the weather is. To ask what the weather is, say "¿Qué tiempo hace?" One possible way you could answer is "Hace mayormente nublado." You could then continue "La temperatura es ochenta y nueve grados."

You also need to know the numbers. They are in the Quizlet set below.
​Now you know how to ask the weather in Spanish. Here's a video of how it can be used in real life.

When you want to talk to an adult or a respected individual, you always want to use your manners. You have to know:-The basic courtesy phrases

-The difference between (Ud.) and (tú)

When you ask your amigos or friends something, you end the question with (tú). When you ask an adult, you end the question with (Ud.).


E.g. Amigo: ¿Cómo estás (tú)?

        Adult: ¿Cómo estás (Ud.)?

Cuando Es Tu Cumpleaos?: Learn Your Months and Dates In Spanish!

Posted by in SP1-010 on
​Many of us have sung that catchy tune ¡Feliz Cumpleaños! (Happy Birthday!) at one point or another, but how many of us actually know how to ask a teacher, friend, or family member their birthday in spanish? With this lesson, you can learn how!

First, let's talk about los meses, or the months. In Spanish speaking countries, many of the months sound the same as they do in english, actually. A major difference is that, when writing the months out, they are not capitalized as they are in english.

Let’s go over a few Spanish pronunciation rules:
- v’s sound like b’s
- e’s sound like a’s
- a’s sound like “ah”
- j’s soundlike h’s
       - i’s sound like e’s
       - d’s sound like “th”
See the quizlet flashcards below to practice these letter pronunciations!

Now, let's go through the months and their pronunciations:
Note: Whenever there’s an ‘r’ in any of the months (in spanish, only), slightly roll it. Not a whole lot, but just a little- a little latino pizazz. Check the youtube video at the end of the lesson if you can’t roll your r’s.
- The syllables that are in all caps are the ones that have emphasis on them, notice that!

  1. enero = January - pronounced: en-EH-roh
  2. febrero = February - pronounced: feb-REH-oh
  3. marzo = March - pronounced: MART-soh
  4. abril = April - pronounced: ah-BRILL
  5. mayo = May - pronounced: MY-oh (not like the stuff you might put on a sandwich! MY not MAY)
  6. junio = June - pronounced: WHO-nee-oh
  7. julio = July - pronounced: WHO-lee-oh
  8. agosto = August - pronounced: ah-GHOST-oh (¡Cuidado! Careful! Don’t say ah-gust-oh, say ah-ghost-oh)
  9. septiembre = September - pronounced: sept-tee-EM-bray
  10. octubre = October - pronounced: ock-TOO-bray
  11. noviembre = November - pronounced: no-bee-EM-bray
  12. diciembre = December - pronounced: dee-cee-EM-bray

DRILL YOURSELF! Cover the English translation with your hand and practice the spanish one. Say what month it is in english and check to see if you got it. Do it until you can get all 12 twice.


Next, let’s go through the numbers. For the purpose of this lesson, I’ll only go through days 1-31 and how to say them in spanish.

  1. primero (pree-MEH-roh)
  2. segundo (seh-GOON-tho)
  3. tercero (tear-SARE-oh)
  4. cuatro (KWAH-troh)
  5. cinco (SEEN-koh)
  6. seis (sehs)
  7. siete (see-EH-teh)
  8. ocho (OH-cho)
  9. nueve (nu-EH-beh)
  10. diez (THEE-ess)
  11. once (OHN-ceh)
  12. doce (THO-ceh)
  13. trece (TREH-ceh)
  14. catorce (kah-TOR-ceh)
  15. quince (KEEN-ceh)
  16. dieciseis (thee-ess-ee-SEHS)
  17. diecisiete (thee-ess-ee-see-EH-teh)
  18. dieciocho (thee-ess-ee-OH-cho)
  19. diecinueve (thee-ess-ee-nu-EH-beh)
  20. veinte (BAIN-teh)
  21. veintiuno (BAIN-tee-u-noh)

Hey! Did you notice how in 21, there are essentially two numbers there? You can see both veinte and uno, right? Well, the spanish word for ‘and’ is simply ‘y’. To make things simpler, the good ol language makers decided to put all three words together, turning the ‘y’ into an ‘i’ for convenience. Think of it this way: veinte+y+uno= veintiuno. Apply this to numbers 21-29. What would 22 be? How about 24? 27?

    30. treinta (TRAIN-tah)
    31. treintaiuno (TRAIN-tay-u-noh)


Alrighty! Now, you’ve got the months and the days. You’re ready right??
Wrong. You need the basic question! How do we actually say “When is your birthday?”

Simple! You know that ¡Feliz Cumpleaños! means “Happy Birthday”, right?
Cumpleaños = birthday. Check.
When = Cuando. Check.
Is = Es. Check.
Tu = You/Your. Check

Let’s put it together: Cuando (when) es (is) tu (your) cumpleaños (birthday)
¿Cuando es tu cumpleaños?

Now, you know how to ask your friends their birthday in Spanish!
But, how do you answer this question when asked?

Also very simple!
You know your months, you know your days. The Spanish word for ‘of’ is ‘de’- add the three together!
seis de noviembre.

You’re all set!

Middlebrooks, Trinity, LucidChart, Home Network

Posted by Trinity Middlebrooks in TECH9-005 on
The internet service provider (I.S.P) is Verizon. A phone wire connects the Verizon connection with the modem. This is connected to the router. The router sends signals to all of the internet connected devices such as computers, printers, game systems,and televisions. For people that have ISP/home network, I would tell them that they need to be careful about what they put online. They should research the good things to post, and never put something online that you would as in person, because it will never go away.

Por Favor en Gracias

Posted by Lindsey Jones in SP1-010 on

                                                 Por Favor en Gracias

                                                  Common Courtesy Phrases

     

      Phrases like “Please” and “Thank you” have been taught to us since we were small children. They are commonly used in everyday life and project a sense of respect and courtesy among people. Irregardless of what some might think, common courtesy is what will get you further in life, while also leaving a good impression!

      “Thank you”. We've heard and have said it ourselves. Now how do we say it in the Spanish language? There are many ways, but a short, and common way to say it is “Gracias.”. For example, if someone holds the door for you, you'd reply with “Gracias.”. “Gracias” is only one of the many ways to express gratitude in the Spanish language.

     Ever accidentally bumped into someone or tried getting their attention? These situations usually start with someone saying “Excuse me”. In English, there aren't many ways in which you can say it. This is where the complex language of Spanish comes in! There are multiple ways in which “excuse me” can be said in Spanish. And each of them have different feelings/meanings behind them.

      We've all wanted something so bad, that we've practically begged before. Or, because it is polite to your partner, you say “Please” when asking for something or someone. In spanish, “please” is said as “Por favor”. This term is always needed when wanting something. And prevents you from sounding rude. It is a less demanding word and shows your proper etiquette skills.

In order to know proper etiquette in Spanish, you will need to know:

The three ways to say "Thank You"

The three ways to say "You're welcome" and the differences between the usages.

And how to say "Please"

Advert your eyes to the ways of saying these phrases below:

- Below I have made a video to help you better understand the purpose of having the ability to tell spanish in time and why it is very important. In the video there is a kid who thinks he is late to an appointment but does not know for sure so he asks someone. The person he asks only speaks spanish and does not really understand what he is asking. This is Muy problematíco. ¡Ay, dios mío!
