La regla · The rule
The unit's exit: your future, in the futuro simple, with opinions. De grande seré veterinario porque me gustan los animales. Tendré un perro grande. Viviré cerca del mar.
Y también · And also
El sueño — the dream. Write three of yours; the future tense exists for them. A job after ser takes no article: seré piloto, never seré un piloto. El panadero and el florista are jobs too.
Ojo · Watch out
A job after ser takes no article: seré veterinaria, es piloto — never seré una veterinaria. The habit starts here and holds for every job in Spanish.
Do it now — on paper
Say all 10 words aloud twice from the respelling, then once from the Spanish spelling alone — begin with el sueño.
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 20 in Module 5 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.
