Adverbs are words that tell us how an action is done. For example, in the sentence "The person walks slowly," "slowly" is the adverb that tells us how the person walks. In Spanish, many adverbs are formed by adding "-mente" to the end of feminine adjectives that we already know. For example, "lento" becomes "lentamente." It's similar to when in English we add "-ly" to the end of some words, like "slow" which becomes "slowly." After listening, answer these questions: 1. What does Andrés usually order at the cafeteria? 2. How did Andrés greet Elena at the cafeteria? 3. How often does Elena prepare her coffee at the office? 4. How did they both leave the coffee shop? 5. How was their day going? 6. How did Andrés and Elena talk about their plans and challenges at work? 7. How often does Elena come to the coffee shop before going to the office? 8. How did Andrés and Elena plan their day?
Los adverbios son palabras que nos dicen cómo se hace una acción. Por ejemplo, en la frase "La persona camina lentamente", "lentamente" es el adverbio que nos dice cómo camina la persona.
En español, muchos adverbios se forman agregando "-mente" al final de adjetivos femeninos que ya conocemos. Por ejemplo, "lento" se convierte en "lentamente". Es parecido a cuando en inglés agregamos "-ly" al final de algunas palabras, como "slow" que se convierte en "slowly".
Luego de escuchar responde a estas preguntas:
1. ¿Qué pide Andrés generalmente en la cafetería?
2. ¿Cómo saludó Andrés a Elena en la cafetería?
3. ¿Qué tan a menudo Elena prepara su café en la oficina?
4. ¿Cómo salieron ambos de la cafetería?
5. ¿Cómo avanzaba el día para ellos?
6. ¿Cómo hablaban Andrés y Elena sobre sus planes y retos en el trabajo?
7. ¿Con qué frecuencia Elena viene a la cafetería antes de ir a la oficina?
8. ¿Cómo planificaron su día Andrés y Elena?
