Vocabulary excercise, Spanish Comprehension/Penelope

Question

Ok! This is a vocabulary excercise. It is meant to be both informative and fun! There are a lot of words which will be new to many of you. That's the idea. Using the English lyrics acompanying the Spanish, write down as many new Spanish words and their English meanings as you can. At your leisure, go over the song again and again and you will soon absorb these new words into your vocabulary.

The song itself is very beautiful. As a comprehnsion excercise try to understand what this woman is going through as described by the artist from Argentina, Diego Torres. (There are some errors in the English translation in one or two spots. try and find them too!)

You wanted to learn Spanish?

Answer 1

Thank you Joe. I was surprised to learn how the word "Reloj " was used in the song,

" a reloj a tarde en primavera", = to watch later in the spring. I did not know it could

be interpreted that way , amazing what one can learn from a song. Thanks mate.

The actual phrase paró su reloj infantil, means "you stopped being a child."(One spring afternoon) - 002262dd, Mar 12, 2012
