Game: Pass 'Em On!

All right, the point of this game is really simple: I'll give you guys five Spanish words. The first player has to take three of these words and form a single Spanish sentence using them. Write your sentence in English as well to help reinforce the vocabulary. Then, add three new words of your own to the two remaining ones and leave them for the next player to continue the game.

Bueno, la clave de este juego es bastante sencillo: Os daré cinco palabras en español. El primer jugador tiene que coger tres de estas palabras y formar una sola oración en español con ellas. Escribe tu oración en inglés también para aprender mejor el vocabulario. Luego, añade a la lista de las dos palabras restantes tres nuevas palabras tuyas para que le toque al siguiente jugador.

Os daré un ejemplo:

caballo

repollo

gaviota

hundirse

ronco

La gaviota se quedó ronca después de comer tanto repollo.

=>

caballo

hundirse

extraterrestre

zumbar

famélico

OK, good idea! - LaPiedraAlegre, Apr 12, 2013
Great idea, me gusta mucho :) would it also be a good idea to post the sentence in English and Spanish so that it's easier to learn new words as we go along? Ps I hope you don't mind me adding the reminder to click 'newest' ;) - Kiwi-Girl, Apr 12, 2013

I am hoping that is the correct use of "tacatac" as I could not find a definition anywhere. - PumpkinCalabaza, Apr 12, 2013

A veces las cabras están consultando a las vacas aunque no tienen la posibilidad llamarlas por teléfono. Por lo tanto están usando la telepatía.

Sometimes the goats are consulting the cows although they don't have the possibility to call them by phone. Therfore they are using telepathy.

I'm glad there is translation because franquear wouldn't have been translated as negotiate by me. It looks quite similar in my language as "frankeren" to put a stamp on a letter. :-) - Aranjuez12, Apr 13, 2013
I think it means negotiate as in negotiate over or through obstacles etc not to negotiate a price but feel free to correct me if this is not the case. - Kiwi-Girl, Apr 15, 2013
