Errores habituales de los hispanohablantes

Sometimes, Spanish speakers make small mistakes with daily routine verbs:

  • Using ‘see’ instead of ‘watch’: In Spanish, you might say “ver la tele.” In English, for television, we usually say watch TV, no see TV.
  • Using ‘take’ instead of ‘have’ for meals: You might say “tomar la cena” in Spanish. In English, for meals, we say have dinner, have breakfast, o have lunch.
  • Direct translation for ‘walk to school’: Instead of go walking to school, the correct and simpler way is walk to school.
