Today, Micah and Alex discuss another useful Spanish phrase you can use regularly with your child!
Micah
Hey everyone, Micah here with TruFluency Kids. I’m with my favorite gal, Alex.
Alex
Hello. Hola Hola.
Micah
Today, we are gonna continue the fight for our kids’ bilingualism. And of course, we always want to teach the parents, if you don’t speak Spanish, how you can help your kids by interweaving phrases into your daily life. So, Alex, what phrase or question are we going to learn today?
Spanish Phrase – How to say “Where are you going” in Spanish: ¿A dónde vas?
Alex
¿A dónde vas?
Micah
Where are you going? And for all the grammar nerds out there, we’re saying “a” at the beginning because it means “to where”. So, in English, we put the preposition a lot of times at the end. What are you looking for? Where are you going? No, we don’t say to but that’s what the “a” is at the beginning just in case you’re curious. And so, ok Alex, I’m gonna ask you some questions and you tell me where you’re going. So we’re gonna tell you how to ask the question guys and then we’re gonna tell you what you need to respond also. So Alex: ¿A dónde vas?
Alex
Voy a la cocina.
