The idea is to find an English word (synonym –- antonym -- phrase, idiom, phrasal verb ) related to the word – F E R O C I O U S ( adjetivo) and then write a simple sentence in English and Spanish for that word.

Examples:

Atila has a reputation as a ferocious warrior leader of the Huns.

Atila tiene una reputación como un guerrero feroz líder de los hunos.

atila photo: ATILA atila.jpg

Pictures are a good idea.

Mariana has kindly agreed to be the “official” corrector of the Spanish.

I think I can manage being the “unofficial” corrector for the English, ja ja

This was the previous challenge
