Che! Dame los cinco

Che! Cómo andas?

Welcome to the “Che! Dame los cinco” newsletter.

For the new folks joining us, I send these 4 things for you every Monday morning:

1. a new word

2. a new expression

3. a piece of content

4. an exercise for improving your Spanish

📖 Palabra - mucama

I heard this in my new show the other day. It means housekeeper or maid. I think it's less common to have a housekeeper in the US but I've heard it's common in other parts of the world.

🗨️ Expresión - menos que menos

This is something else that came from my show (which I shared below) which seems to translate to the expression in English “even less” or “and even less.”

Yo ya te lo propuse, asíque ahora menos que menos te me podés negar

Che si me van a eliminar de Instagram procuren eliminarme de sus seguidores también que si a vos no te interesa mi vida a mi menos que menos la tuya.

🔗 Contenido - Nada

A five-episode series that was released this year and takes place in Buenos Aires. It has Robert Di Niro too. It's soooo good. I almost binged it in a weekend. It's about an old man who is a food critic. And that's all I'll say 🙂 

Here's a 2-min trailer:

💪🏼 Ejercicio - Learn the third verse of Viejo Macdonald (30s)

Last week, we started learning Old Macdonlad in Spanish from Spanish with Liz.

So for today’s mini-exercise, let’s learn the second verse:

Con un mu mu aquí mu mu allá

mu aquí mu allá

todos lados mu mu

We’ll continue learning it over the coming weeks until we can sing the whole thing!

Thanks for reading! Espero que disfrutes la semana 😄

Abrazo de tu amigo,
