This week we’ve prepared a few fun ways to keep improving your Spanish, all focused on family and especially “dads”. Why? Because today we celebrate Father’s Day in Spain and most of Latin America! 👨
First, listen to a new episode of our Hola Culture podcast about El DĂa del Padre and San JosĂ©. It’s a great chance to hear real Spanish and learn a bit more about our culture too.
Next, boost your vocabulary with family members in Spanish. Review key words for relatives and try the word game to help you remember them.
And finally, practice reading with a bilingual text and audio about a close family and the special role a father plays at home.
¡Vamos! Choose your favorite activity and keep practicing your Spanish 🔥.
Real Spanish, Real voices 🎧
El DĂa del Padre & San JosĂ©
In episode 7 of our Hola culture series, Silvia and Inma chat about a very special day for dads in Spain and Latin America: El DĂa del Padre.
But it’s not just Father’s Day, it’s also a very special day for those called JosĂ©, Josefa, Pepe, Pepa… because it’s also Saint Joseph’s Day.
Learn about this celebrated day and tell us what you think of the history behind it. We’d love to read your comments in our blog.
