El cuerpo

by | Dec 2, 2011 | Middle School, Tweens, Vocabulary Lists

In the Jr. High Class we are learning to say all the parts of the body in Spanish.  See if you can memorize some words yourself!
Note:  Every noun in Spanish is feminine or masculine.  “La” means “the” for the feminine words and “el” means “the” for the masculine words.  If you want to make a word plural add “s” to the end if the word ends in a vowel and add “es” to the end if the word ends with a consonant.  For example, “la pierna” means “leg” and to say “legs” you change it to “las piernas.”  Have fun learning some new words!
