Hello, guys!

I'm Olga. Mr. Moises asked me to write a summary for last monday (and later, also you will make it!). Here you are.


1. We started the class by correcting the exercises on pages 131 and 132.

2. After that, we read the text on pages 8 and 9, and we worked on it:

          -we made exercices 1 to 4 on page 8;

          -we saw some words based on relationships, such as:

          sibling: hermano, -a;
          only child: hijo único;
          rivalry: rivalidad; [careful with pronunciation]
          close: cercano, íntimo;
          boast = brag: presumir, alardear, jactarse: She boasted that she had an Oscar;
          

          -some expressions:

          to resemble = to look alike: parecerse; look like: parecerse a... We look alike (Nos parecemos), I look like my sister
           (Me parezco a mi hermana);
          to take after sombody: "tener" (parecerse) algo de alguien: I take after my father;
          to be close to: estar muy cerca de...: I'm close to my sister;
          on your side: de tu lado: Your mather is on your side;
[also, to side with = to take sides  = ponerse de parte de ...]
          to feel lonely or to be alone: I'm feel lonely, even if I'm not alone;

          -some particular family of words:

          an heir /er/: heredero; an heiress /'eress/; heredera; to inherit: heredar; inheritance: herencia;
          jealous (adj.): celoso; jealousy (n.): celos, envidia;
          loathe (v) /loud/: detestar; loath (adj) /lou0/: detestado, aborrecido;

3. Also, the teacher wanted to remind us the four words starting by +[a mute] h--[ not pronounced]:
          
          heir, hour, honest, honour [Ta!]




And I think -[it is] +that's all!


See you!


Olga
