Hello there! Welcome once again to our Spanish Vocabulary section. Don’t forget to check our previous lesson about Native Animals in South America. Today we’re learning about something very basic and yet so important: clothing. Remember when we used to learn how to name clothes in our compulsory second language at school?. Sure that helped you when shopping abroad. It also helps to physically describe other people, and ourselves! Clothes are something we always use and therefore it’s important that we know how to name them!. Also, certain clothes and textiles in Latin America are famous for their beautiful, hand-made bright colors. You’ll fall in love with them for sure when in Quito, Cuzco or Sucre.
Let’s begin, enjoy and learn Spanish with us!☺️
