This week’s reading has two parts. In the first, Nuria calls her grandpa every Sunday, and he always has a proverb ready. In the second, we go back 400 years to Don Quijote, where Sancho Panza says so many proverbs that his master tells him to stop. Pick your level (or read both!) and answer in the comments. I reply to everyone. CHECK THE PDF FOR THE TRANSCRIPTION AND GLOSARY A1-A2: ¿Qué dice Paco cada vez que Nuria llama por teléfono? // What does Paco say every time Nuria calls? ¿Qué dices tú cuando llegas tarde? // What do you say when you’re late?

This week’s audio has two stories. First, meet Marta, a grandmother who bakes the best bread in her village, and her grandson Pablo, who knows all about phones.

You’re standing in the shop with the bag in your hand. The assistant says «¿Lo quiere cambiar o le devuelvo el dinero?» and your brain goes blank. That’s the moment this week’s unit is built around. CLICK HERE TO GO TO THE UNIT There’s one formula that gets you in the door — learn it as a single block and you’re covered. But the real work is the section on understanding what comes back at you, because that’s the part nobody teaches and the part that actually goes wrong. Also: volver and devolver are not the same verb. ¿Puedo volver esto? (Can I go back this?) No. 😁 Exercises are at the bottom. Three sentences for the challenge and I correct them all.
