The idea is to find a word "related" to the word "Walk"

and

write a simple sentence in English and Spanish for that word..

Example:

I walk to work every day.

Camino al trabajo todos los días.

Please note

The words must be "related" to the word "walk".

Los caballos tienen cuatro aires naturales; el paso, el trote, el medio galope y el galope de carrera. No tienen talento natural para trepar a árboles.

Horses have four natural paces; the walk, the trot, the canter and the gallop. They don't have a natural talent for tree-climbing.
