Weekly Word Challenge
Another wonderful week of teaching has happened. This week I would like to take a moment to remember our soldiers and heroes who showed up so we could have better lives. Gracias! Thank you! Merci!
Going back to last week’s words and challenge, do you remember what they were? Find out the answers below.
Carretera: road/highway
Cartera: wallet/purse
Here are the fantastic responses that came in. I love the creativity! YOUPPI!
Las palabras carretera y cartera no deben confundirse. Cuando usted está en un viaje por carretera necesita una cartera para pagar el combustible, pero no es necesario un viaje por carretera para ir de compras y utilizar la cartera para pagar sus compras. jajaja
The words road and wallet should not be confused. When you are on a road trip you need a wallet to pay for the fuel, but you do not need a road trip to go shopping and use your wallet to pay for your purchases. Hahaha
Una vez, mientras estaba corriendo en la carretera ( ), me encontré con una señora en su bicicleta y perdí mi cartera. De todos modos, hay sólo cinco dólares en la billetera.
Once, while I was running on the road ( ), I ran into a lady on her bike and lost my wallet. Anyway, there’s only five bucks in the wallet.
Una vez perdí mi billetera en el camino.
