2.8 – On The Fly: How Long Have You Lived In Mexico?

Let’s check to make sure you have grasped what we’ve learned in this unit so far. In this episode, we’ll see how well you can answer questions about how long you’ve lived somewhere — on the fly!

We’ll provide a time frame — say, four months — and you add “He vivido in Mexico” in front of it.

So, you could say:

Example:  Four Months  -> He vivido en México cuatro meses
Another Example: Six Years -> He vivido en México seis años

Let’s work on some more exercises. Like in past episodes, we’ll say it in English first, then give you time to answer.

Then, we’ll go back through and say each one in English and Spanish, to make sure you got it correct.

Let’s get started!
