🎂 Let’s Talk About TENER 📅

This week we’re going to talk about tener: what you own, what you feel, and what you have to do.

In English you are 30 years old. In Spanish you have 30 years — “tengo 30 años”. And here’s the part that surprises people: in Spain a lot of people have two days a year when they get congratulated. Your birthday, and your santo — the day of the saint who shares your first name. Newspapers still print the full list every single day, so if you’re called Carmen, you have 16 July forever. Two cakes 👀 and absolutely no extra effort required 😅

⚡ ¿Qué tienes siempre en tu bolso o en tu mochila? // What do you always have in your bag or backpack?

⚡ ¿Tienes alguna tradición en tu familia que casi nadie más tiene? ¿Cómo es? // Do you have a family tradition that almost nobody else has? What’s it like?

Don’t forget to practise every day by reading and replying to some comments — every comment earns you points, and at the end of the month the member with the most points wins! 🏆 It costs you two minutes a day and it’s the fastest way to improve.
