Episode 91: 10 Verbs and "Odd" Prepositions

Continuing with our brief focus on verbs and prepositions (see last week's Episode 90: Verbs with Built-In Prepositions), today we'll talk about 8 Spanish verbs and their related prepositions. The first five deal with verbs that use different prepositions than you would expect as a native English speaker. The next three deal with verbs that require prepositions in Spanish, but which don't require them in English. Plus, we'll finish up our Cultural Tip on Honduras with three fun and interesting traditions! Let's begin!

Remember, learning a language is a lifelong journey.
