Conversation
Daniel discussed a birthday celebration where his girlfriend met his friends, plus a jointly shared party, renting an event room, and the role of a host. Holiday-market drinks led to vino caliente, ponche, and ron. A five-item test reviewed embajada, caro, vender, tormenta, and atardecer.
The second half moved through personalized computer desks, websites and development, everyday actions and objects, time expressions, and cars. Useful contrasts included sentarse versus sentirse, vender versus venta, atardecer versus amanecer, and purpose with para.
