Day 252: Her Usual Table by the Window
In a small café in Valladolid, Yucatán, Rodrigo (A), a young waiter, greets Pascuala (B), an older regular, as she sits down at her usual table by the window; doña is a polite title for an older woman.
How to study this lesson 3 steps
- Read the situation under the title. It says who is talking and how they know each other, which decides how politely they speak.
- Read the dialogue line by line with its translation, until every line makes sense. Point at (or tap) a Spanish word to see what it means.
- Spend at least 30 minutes listening to native Spanish, for example from the Resources page. It doesn't matter if you don't understand it yet.
Dialogue
Audio recordings are on the way. For now, each lesson is the dialogue with its English translation.
