    7:05 - Supe la palabra porque soy mexicano, y el origen de esa palabra es del idioma _Nahuatl_ . It's interesting to note that the "quirky" word means "cocoa" to the indiginous population here. That word comprises, the cola bean, cocoa bean, and the peanut. Is it any wonder why chololatl and cacahuatl taste so good together? Chocolate and peanuts together were made famous in the US by H.B. Reese who worked with none other than Hershey himself. I have eaten "virgin" chocolatl with peanuts, and WOW! Just sayin' ...
    Brava, Alexa, y muchísimas gracias (merci beaucoup) for your lessons (pour tes leçons). I truly think he who dies knowing the most languages wins in life!

  • @midmay2009
    @midmay2009 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I found this intriguing because there are two forms of past tense in French as in English but here we are learning only one form. For instance: 'we were' and 'we have been' do have different forms in French. While google translate nous étions for we were,
    nous avons été is translated, as in this lecture video, we have been. So what is right word for passe compose??

    OR do both make sense? Bisous

      It depends what you wish to say. For example, if you make a statement such as: Tu as été en vacances. Then are stating a fact: You have been on Holiday. As-tu été en vacances? is a question: Have you been on holiday? Hope this helps!

    Ma chère enseignante, j'ai une question pour vous.

    • @JEOS
      @JEOS 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah, I'm asking that because I've always heard it like that *_without making ''liaison''_*, but still I've always had certain problems when trying to use it when speaking, that's because I often get confused because I don't even know if use it or not.
      Bref, c'est tout pour l'instant.

    But why in this case it is "du Mundo and not de"
