Now, I will say a few sentences in Spanish and I would like you to reply with an expression describing the person I am speaking about negatively. For example, if I say \u201cAntonio siempre se mira al espejo y dice que es muy guapo\u201d You could say \u201c\u00a1Ser\u00e1 cre\u00eddo!\u201d:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lola nunca quiere hacer nada.<br \/>\nA Miguel no le gusta ir de copas, prefiere quedarse en casa leyendo un libro.<br \/>\nJorge nunca invita a sus amigos.<br \/>\nAna no para de hablar de su vida. <\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Next, can you understand the following sentences?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mar\u00eda no es muy divertida que digamos.<br \/>\nAlicia va de supermodelo.<br \/>\nMi padre se hace el sordo cuando le pido dinero.<br \/>\nMarcos se hace el tonto cuando no quiere hablar conmigo.<br \/>\nCristina es un poco tontilla.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Finally, please translate the following sentences from English to Spanish:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> She is really silly!<br \/>\nWhat a boring man!<br \/>\nShe really is a clown!<br \/>\nHe is so arrogant!<br \/>\nShe is a huge bore!<\/p>\n<p>Esto es todo por la clase pr\u00e1ctica de hoy. <\/p>\n<p>I hope you have found this practice lesson interesting and useful. This is the kind of Spanish you might not find in text books will almost certainly encounter a lot in when speaking with and listening to native speakers. Slang and popular expressions are also an important thing to learn if you want to be fully confident in conversation. <\/p>\n<p>Que tengais una muy buena semana y hasta la pr\u00f3xima clase.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a1Adi\u00f3s!<\/p>\n<p>I hope you are enjoying my weekly interactive Spanish lessons.
