🇲🇽 Spanish Quiz

Answers to the blanks:

• Blank 1: almidón (starch)

• Blank 2: debería (should)

Explanation:

• Almidón means "starch," a useful word in cooking contexts to explain rinsing rice or potatoes. "Harina" (flour) could also be used in other cooking scenarios.

• Debería is the conditional form of "deber," meaning "should." Here it adds politeness, suggesting a guideline rather than an order. Alternatively, "tienes que" (you have to) could be used for a stronger suggestion.

🇫🇷 French Quiz

Answers to the blanks:

• Blank 1: amidon (starch)

• Blank 2: devrait-il (should it)

Explanation:

• Amidon (starch) is used to describe how rice or potatoes are rinsed before cooking. Another term like "la farine" (flour) would be more specific to baking.

• Devrait-il combines "devrait" (should) and "il" (it), which is polite and implies guidance. "Faut-il" (does it have to) is a stronger suggestion, usable in a similar way.

🇮🇹 Italian Quiz

Answers to the blanks:

• Blank 1: amido (starch)

• Blank 2: dovrebbe (should)

Explanation:

• Amido (starch) is used to describe rinsing rice or pasta. An alternative is "farina" (flour), which is more specific to baking contexts.

• Dovrebbe (should) is the polite conditional form of "dovere," suggesting a recommendation rather than a command. "Devi" (you must) could be used for a firmer directive.
