Spanish Lessons
Falsos Amigos / False Cognates
There are a lot of words that look similar in Spanish and English, but that mean very different
things. Avoid misunderstandings with these explanations for five new false cognates:
conexión/connection, copa/cup, excitar/excite, oficio/office, and presente/present

Comparatives and Superlatives
Spanish comparatives and superlatives are fairly simple. Comparatives
are the comparison of one thing to another (more, less, or as), while superlatives
indicate that one person/thing is the most, best, least, or worst in
comparison to others.
