Sohl son wanted to make some webcam calls, but our call recipients weren't available. So he decided he wanted to write something instead. Here's what he said...
"Now I have to say Spanish words. Uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, seis, siete, ocho, nueve, diez, once, doce, trece, catorce, quince." (counting, 1 - 15).
"Comer" (to eat).
"How do you ask someone their name?"
"Como se llamas? Camiseta is a t-shirt. La jaqueta is jacket. La puerta is door. Techo, ceiling. Casa, house," (putting hands up to point over his head).
"What else do you know?"
"Manos arriba, a la cabeza." (Hands up, on your head.)
I asked Sohl son, "How do you say paper?"
"El papel is paper."
"How do you say chair?"
"La silla."
Then he does this chant from school...
"Pollito - chicken
Gallina - hen
lapiz - pencil
Pluma - pen
Ventana - window
Puerto - door
Techo - ceiling
and suelo - floor."
"Los zapatos," he says. "What's that?" I asked.
"Shoes, Mom. Ropa, clothes. How about... how do you say scarf in Spanish?"
"How do you say it, Sohl son?"
"La bufanda!"
"What other things do you know? How 'bout hat?"
"El sombrero."
"How do you say dress?"
"El vestido."
"How do you say sun?"
"El sol."
"How do you say sunglasses?"
"Gafas del sol."
"What does it mean when I say, 'Donde esta su mochila?'"
"La mochila aqui. It means, 'Where's your backpack?' Mommy, I don't know if I can do every Spanish word."
"You're doing great!"
"Well, I can do some..."
"What other things do you know?"
"Ummmm... Kung Fu Panda. How do you make his name?"
"Well, he's not Spanish."
"I'm just kidding. He's not Spanish. How 'bout el papel? Mama, I think it's time for me to watch a movie."
"How do you say movie in Spanish?"
"I don't know. Can you say it for me?"
"Movie is la pelicula."
"Peculia?"
"Pay-lick-u-lah. Is there anything else you want to say?"
"Adios, hasta manana!" (Bye see you tomorrow!)
