¡Buen domingo!

What are you doing today? I wonder if your day looks anything like the one in this building complex in Granada that organises parties every Sunday. Take a look at this party, where the 300-odd people who participate prepare for Sunday by organising craft activities to create the decorations etc. during the week:

• Una urbanización de Granada organiza macro fiestas temáticas

It looks a lot like the andaluces are winning the prize for most inventive population during the lockdown! Some of you might remember that I previously wrote about an andaluz initiative for community bingo.

Here's a line from the article with its associated grammar points:

• Forming the Spanish passive with se (la pasiva refleja)
• Forming the Spanish passive with se (la pasiva refleja)
• Empezar/comenzar a = to begin/start doing something (perífrasis verbal)
• Gender and plural of nouns ending in -e in Spanish
• Por vs para in Spanish: Using para (and not por) for purpose, goal or objective

 

Hasta mañana,
