Background
Today’s audio comes from a conversation I was having over WhatsApp with a friend of mine from Colombia, Dayana.
I had left her an audio message but my phone was connected to a speaker through bluetooth and therefore, the sound didn’t come through well.
In this :38 second clip you will hear Dayana use several different and common expressions that all mean essentially “no entiendo”.
Listening Task
“O sea” is a highly used expression in Spanish no matter where the speaker is from. Today’s task has 2 parts:
- How many times does Dayana say “o sea” in the clip?
- How does “o sea…” best translate to English? “However”, “therefore” or “in other words”?
