Answer 1

Try it in English, then in Spanish. As Izanoni1 said, if you know the vocabulary this is a simple assignment.

old, custom, enormous, (gather together) around (there were) (told jokes) while, often (we enjoyed ourselves, had fun)

I remember very well the holidays that we celebrated when I was a girl. It was our ____ to go to our grandparent's house in the country. They didn't live in a modern house like the houses in the city. Their house was____ but also____. All of my relatives could _____there at the same time! ____ the adults chatted or ____we played in the garden that was ___the house. ____many trees in the garden and _____ we picnicked beneath them.

Hi DallasUpling, and

Welcome to the SpanishDict forum.

In regards to your specific question, our forum guidelines encourage all members to first make an attempt before asking for help. This is a site whose focus is on learning, and as such, members are discouraged from completing another member's homework for them.

My Suggestions:

?Using a suitable dictionary and a decent grammar reference, take the assignment apart, sentence-by-sentence with the goal of understanding what is being expressed.

?If you come across a phrase or sentence that you are unsure of, give your best attempt at a translation and post it on the forum for others to critique. If you make an earnest attempt, I'm sure that our members will be happy to help.

?If you need to, also use a dictionary to make sure that you are aware of the definitions for each of the words in your word bank.

?Once you have a decent idea of what is being said in the passage, try to fill in the blanks with words from your word bank which fit best into each blank (i.e. are the most logical choices for the context given).

?If you have a specific question, for example, if you feel like a specific word might logically be used in more than one of the blanks, then post a thread and ask whether or not this would be the case, remembering to be as specific as possible as to why you feel like it might fit in either.

In any case, please have a go at your own assignment before asking for help. If you post an earnest attempt, I am sure that somebody will be more than happy to comment on your answers and steer you in the right direction if you have gone astray. Thanks and I hope to see you around the forum again.
