The Friday Treat is an “easy” Vine in with minimal or no dialogue, that you can understand and enjoy without an explanation.  

Today’s Friday Treat is by our friend Berry from Spain (who was also featured on Wednesday, September 3).

Her friend tells her,

¡que estás a dieta! = you’re on a diet!

Here, the word que means “that” – “that you’re on a diet!”

It’s like saying, “Remember that you’re on a diet!”

And here is your Weekly Review from Monday and Wednesday lessons this week.  Try saying the Spanish words out loud to yourself.

¡dime!

dime qué tienes.

así está mi corazon

es por tí

a ver si tenemos una mesa

a ver si late tu corazon

do you have batteries?

don’t you have to do this? (refer to this vine if you’re stuck)
