La regla · The rule
Three frames to fill truthfully: an invitation (Hay ___ en mi casa a las ___), a thank-you (Gracias por ___, fue ___), and a postcard line (Ayer fuimos a ___).
Y también · And also
Each finished frame is a real message a real Spanish reader would understand — that is A2, working. Un beso and saludos close a note; un abrazo, from Module 3, closes a card.
Ojo · Watch out
un beso and un abrazo are sign-offs for friends and family only; saludos works for anyone. A letter to a stranger ends differently — that comes later.
Do it now — on paper
Say all 7 words aloud twice from the respelling, then once from the Spanish spelling alone — begin with gracias por el regalo.
Copy every word with its accents on paper; then cover the English column and write each meaning back from the Spanish.
Write two sentences of your own that get the watch-out line right, then the two practice pages of workbook lesson 29 in Module 4 are the written half of this page.
This free course is the reading half. The writing half — write-in lessons, daily practice pages with built-in review, self-checks and a full answer key — is the companion workbook series, The Spanish Ladder: one workbook per module, fifteen in all, released band by band with the Basic band (Modules 1–5) first.
