- Lucas: Hey Luna, welcome back to Learn Spanish with Fexingo. Ready for episode 108? Luna: Yeah, I'm excited. What are we learning today? Lucas: Today we're going back to the park. Remember we learned 'el columpio' and 'el tobogán' before? Well, there's more playground fun. Luna: Oh, I remember 'el columpio' — the swing. And 'el tobogán' — the slide. So what's new? Lucas: First, 'el balancín'. That's a seesaw. Say it with me: el balancín. Luna: el balancín. That sounds fun. And we already know 'el columpio' and 'el tobogán'. Lucas: Exactly. And let's also revisit 'el arenero' — the sandbox. So today we have four playground items: el balancín, el columpio, el tobogán, el arenero. Luna: El balancín, el columpio, el tobogán, el arenero. Got it. Lucas: If Fexingo has been helping you make actual progress with Spanish, honestly, if today was worth a coffee to you, that's the link — buy me a coffee dot com slash fexingo. It keeps us ad-free. Luna: Yeah, every little bit helps. We really appreciate it. Lucas: So, let's use these in a sentence. 'Me gusta el balancín.' — I like the seesaw. Luna: Me gusta el balancín. But I think I like the slide more. How do I say 'I like the slide'? Lucas: That's 'Me gusta el tobogán.' Try it. Luna: Me gusta el tobogán. And the swing? Me gusta el columpio. Lucas: Perfect. Now let's describe what kids do. 'Los niños juegan en el tobogán.' — The kids play on the slide. Luna: Los niños juegan en el tobogán. What about the sandbox? Los niños juegan en el arenero. Lucas: Exactly. And on the seesaw? 'Los niños juegan en el balancín.' Let's say them all together. Luna: Los niños juegan en el tobogán. Los niños juegan en el arenero. Los niños juegan en el balancín. Lucas: Great. Now imagine we're at the park. I see two kids on the seesaw. How do I say 'The kids are on the seesaw'? Luna: Los niños están en el balancín. Lucas: Yes! And if a kid is swinging? 'El niño está en el columpio.' Try it. Luna: El niño está en el columpio. This is fun. I can picture the park. Lucas: Let's do a quick review. I'll say the English, you say the Spanish. Seesaw. Luna: El balancín. Lucas: Swing. Luna: El columpio. Lucas: Slide. Luna: El tobogán. Lucas: Sandbox. Luna: El arenero. Lucas: Excellent. Now a sentence: I like the seesaw. Luna: Me gusta el balancín. Lucas: The kids play on the slide. Luna: Los niños juegan en el tobogán. Lucas: Perfect.
