Paralee keeps saying "parahemplo" or something like that. Does anyone know the exact word or phrase and the meaning?

It sounds like por ejemplo which means for example. She probably runs it together.

Maybe she means "por ejemplo", meaning for example. grin

  • There should be some difference though even if the words kind of ran together, because of the guttural sound made when pronouncing the letter "j", though this is not that strictly followed. - Deanski Oct 8, 2009 flag

"Por ejemplo" ==> for example

Paralee definitely says "por ejemplo". She introduces many things like that which she doesn't necessarily explain. But that's OK. You figure it out eventually.

¡Qué bien! - it took me a long time for that one. It's like saying "Great!"

¡Vale! - took me even longer. It mean's "OK".

  • What about "Te toca" and "Listo?" They were my personal favorites. - Nicole-B Oct 8, 2009 flag

"Te toca" means "Your turn" (I had asked this several weeks ago). "¿Listo?" means "Ready?" (short for "¿Está listo?")

  • I learned "listo" while spending a day on zip lines near Tulum. I heard "listo, listo, listo" several times over the radio before each person went. The tour guid told me they were letting him know they were "ready, ready, ready" for the next person. - Joey-Jones Feb 2, 2010 flag

"Vamonos" (the word being said with raised arm at the end of each lesson's introduction) means "let's go". For me this one was the most difficult to find grin
