#Bloomscrolling #Flowers #Flores #Roses #Iowa #Spanish
Dynamic Duo. Rugosa Rose and Hydrangea. This is the last nice stem of roses, while the hydrangeas are just coming into full bloom.
Another fun Spanish word: Hydrangea in Spanish is “hortensia” (which I only knew as an old-fashioned name for a girl, but apparently some English speakers also use it for the flower).
#Wildflowers #Iowa #Milkweed #Spanish
Milkweed/Algodoncillo.
This is the first Common Milkweed that I’ve seen blooming this year.
In English, the milkweed is named for the plant’s milky sap.
In Spanish, the plant is named for the fluff that helps the wind disperse the seeds: Algodoncillo (from algodón “cotton” plus a diminutive suffix). So its name is roughly “little cottony thing.”
Fragmentos de antropología anarquista
David Graeber (83 págs., 2004)
https://ww2.ebookelo.com/ebook/6771/fragmentos-de-antropologia-anarquista
La antropología ha tenido siempre una cierta afinidad con el anarquismo —con el que tuvo lazos más o menos estrechos a principios del siglo XX—, puesto que «los antropólogos son el único grupo de científicos sociales que conocen las sociedades sin Estado que existen en la actualidad; muchos han vivido en zonas del mundo donde los Estados han dejado de funcionar o al menos han desaparecido temporalmente y donde la gente se organiza de forma autónoma». La antropología dispone de unas herramientas y de un saber que puede resultar de gran valor para asentar las bases de un proyecto de transformación social cada día más urgente.

Bananas are commonly known as bananas or banano, but they also go by many regional names such as plátanos, guineos, cambures, gualeles, or mínimos. That’s quite a linguistic diversity!

If you are using #Duolingo to learn #Spanish please consider using another app that has actual people behind. Spanish is my mother tongue and let me tell you, the grammar that the app was suggesting is horrid sometimes. You will end up talking like a cylon or something

- In #Spanish, the sea can be both “el mar” and “la mar”
- So what you’re saying is that the sea is a gender fluid?
Pues esto es genial 🖤🖤
To my Spanish-speaking and learning friends, can you recommend some comprehensible input for beginner students? (Audio-visual material that the beginner will mostly understand.) I like Dreaming Spanish a lot so far.
Aquí os dejo la recomendación de hoy. Más relatos, muy chungos y muy buenos 🖤🖤🖤
¡Y disfrutad del finde!
