Ghi chú bài học

Shops and prices in context

  • La tienda, el mercado, el centro comercial, la librería, la carnicería and el supermercado name shopping places. Ir de compras means go shopping; hacer la compra often refers to routine groceries; mirar escaparates means window-shop.
  • Barato and caro describe price, de rebajas means in the sales and descuento discount. An invented price or sale phrase is language practice, not a real offer or proof of value.

Clothes: learn the article and number

  • El jersey, el vestido, la falda, la camisa, la camiseta, el abrigo, los zapatos and los vaqueros name clothes in this setting. Talla is clothing size; regional garment words can differ.
  • Quiero probarme este jersey means I want to try this jumper on. Me queda bien can mean it fits or suits me well; estos zapatos me quedan bien uses plural quedan with the plural garment, not with me.

Services and a clearly stated problem

  • La oficina de correos is the post office; un sello can be a postage stamp there. El banco is the bank and sacar dinero del cajero automático means withdraw money from a cash machine in a language example.
  • Objetos perdidos identifies lost property in this setting. He perdido mi bolso. Es negro reports a lost black bag in an invented account; other objects need appropriate possessives, gender and description.

Payment and price questions

  • ¿Cuánto cuesta? asks how much a singular item costs; ¿cuánto cuestan? fits plural items. Pago con tarjeta and pago en efectivo describe paying by card or cash in the account.
  • El cambio is change returned after cash payment in this context. Incluido means included rather than free; an invented example gives no actual fees, refund rights or current prices.

Demonstratives agree with the garment

  • Use este jersey, esta falda, estos zapatos and estas faldas for this/these. Use ese vestido, esa falda, esos zapatos and esas faldas for the ese set commonly rendered that/those.
  • Agreement follows the noun’s grammatical gender and number, not the wearer. Esto and eso are neuter pronouns; do not put them directly before a noun as if they were masculine singular determiners.

Compare an identified item

  • Más barato que means cheaper than; menos caro que less expensive than; tan bonito como as pretty as. Keep adjective agreement and name or make clear what is being compared.
  • Este jersey es más barato que ese compares two masculine singular jumpers. Esta falda es menos cara que esa uses feminine agreement; the comparison does not itself prove equal quality.

Requests and attached pronouns

  • ¿Podría ayudarme? uses conditional poder to soften a request addressed suitably to usted. Quisiera is an imperfect-subjunctive querer form used for I would like in a request; the two are not the same conjugation.
  • With el jersey, quisiera probármelo attaches me and lo to probar, with an accent preserving stress. With la falda use probármela. A polite form helps the request, while tone and context also matter.

A fictional purpose and dialogue

  • Ahorro parte de mi paga para comprar una bicicleta más adelante gives an invented saving purpose. Paga can be an allowance in this context or pay elsewhere; no personal amount or actual financial decision is required.
  • Cliente: Quisiera probarme este jersey. ¿Cuánto cuesta? Dependienta: Cuesta veinte euros. Cliente: Gracias, me queda bien. The invented turns show who asks and who answers; other coherent items and prices are valid.
