What does ‘Salud, dinero y amor’ mean in Spanish?:
Hoy quiero compartir contigo una de mis frases favoritas en español: SALUD, DINERO y AMOR. Esta, más que una frase, amigos, es la fórmula para la felicidad en español.
Today I’d like to share with you one of my favourite Spanish phrases: GOOD HEALTH, MONEY and LOVE. This is more than a phrase, my friends, this is a recipe for happiness in Spanish.
¿Estás de acuerdo con esta fórmula? Si no gozas de buena salud física y mental, sin importar cuánto dinero tengas, es muy difícil que puedas explorar el mundo y hasta quizá ni siquiera puedas abrazar a tus seres queridos.
Wouldn’t you agree with this expression? If you don´t have good physical or mental health, regardless of how much money you own, it´s really hard to explore the world and you probably wouldn’t even be able to hug your beloved ones.

¿Qué es el Chupacabras?
El chupacabras es un ser aterrador y misterioso que ataca a animales de ganado en zonas rurales. Hay muchas personas que aseguran haberlo visto, aunque la descripción varía según quién lo cuente ya que nunca nadie lo ha podido atrapar. Algunos dicen que se ve como un reptil, otros que es un mamífero parecido a un perro salvaje, sin piel y esquelético. Lo que nunca cambia es su particular forma de atacar: succionando la sangre, como un vampiro.
Generalmente, ataca por las noches. Sus víctimas amanecen sin una gota de sangre en sus cuerpos. A veces hasta les faltan sus órganos vitales. De allí viene su nombre:
CHUPA + CABRAS
´Chupa´ viene del verbo ´Chupar´, que según el diccionario de la Real Academia Española significa: ´Sacar o traer con los labios y la lengua el jugo o la sustancia de algo´. La segunda parte de la palabra es el animal que es la cabra, al que suele atacar con frecuencia, aunque no es el único animal que devore.

Número 3 – Number 3: /ly/
This specific pronunciation way is mostly used in Spain and it’s a /ly/ sound, sort of like pronouncing a ‘y’ after an ‘l’ sound.
Por ejemplo:
– Me llamo María /meh lyamoh maria/ (My name is Maria)
-Lluvia /lyuveeah/
-Llaves /lyahbehs/
Número 2 – Number 2: /j/
The second way to pronounce the “LL” in Spanish is with a /j/ sound, such as in ‘James’ or ‘jungle’.
It’s widely used in other parts of Argentina, some parts of Colombia, Venezuela, and some other countries in central America such as Guatemala.
Por ejemplo:
– Me llamo María /meh jamoh maria/ (My name is Maria)
-Lluvia /juveeah/
-Llaves /jahbehs/
La Doble Ele ‘LL’:
I’d like to show you 4 different pronunciation differences for the double L in Spanish.
Número 1 – Number 1: /SH/
The first way to pronounce the “LL” in Spanish is with a /sh/ sound, as when you’re trying to silence someone, and you cross your lips with your index finger, quite like the nurses do it in a hospital urging people to keep quiet.
We use this way to pronounce the ‘LL’ in Argentina, most specifically in Buenos Aires and Santa Fé and Uruguay.
Por ejemplo:
– Me llamo María /meh shamoh maria/ (My name is Maria)
-Lluvia /shuveeah/
-Llaves /shahbehs/

Chiste y Broma
Ambas palabras significan ‘joke’ en inglés ¿Cuál es la diferencia entre estas palabras? ¿Y cómo sabemos cuádo usar una o la otra?
Both words broma and chiste translate to the English word joke. What’s the difference between these two Spanish words, and how do I know when to use each one?
The main difference is that “chiste” is a joke or a funny story. For example, “three guys walk into a bar…”. A “chiste” is a story joke that you tell and it has a punch line. A funny story.
While “broma” is a joke that you play on someone, such as putting a sign on someone’s back with a funny message. A “broma” is also a silly comment, a practical joke, a way a speaking that means that you’re not serious. For example, when someone tells you something and you say, “You’re joking, right?” (¿Es una broma, verdad?).
A “broma inocente” is a joke played on someone that makes the “victim” laugh together with the ones who did the joke, something light; while a “broma pesada” o “broma de mal gusto” is a prank that went a little too far.

Love
Health

Leave your 🧡 if you will do your MAPA DE LOS SUEÑOS
What Is a Vision Board? / Que es un MAPA DE SUEÑOS?
A vision board is usually a collage of images that represent goals and dreams. It can include cut-out pictures from magazines and words that help inspire you to manifest your dreams and get where you want to go (here is a complete guide on how to manifest something).
Although vision boarding is a commonly used tool, there is not a lot of research on its effectiveness. Initial research suggests it can help us more easily reach our goals. This may be due to how vision boards help us gain self-awareness and self-reflect on what is important to us.
