🧀 Mac and Cheese

Hola 👋

Nothing like some taste from home when you’re far away! Use your Spanish to find the ingredients you need for some good ol’ mac and cheese!

Answers:

1. un país (a country)

2. faltar (to miss, to be missing, not have)

Explanation:

1. un país

   "País" is a noun in Spanish that translates to “country”. For example, "España es un país en Europa" translates to "Spain is a country in Europe."

   An alternative, especially if you speak about where you are from and that you miss it (as in the conversation here), would be “tierra”, which literally means “earth”. You could say “Comer mac and cheese me hace extrañar mi tierra.” → “Eating mac and cheese makes me miss my country.” (lit. “my earth”).

2. faltar

   "Faltar" is a verb in Spanish that means to lack something necessary or desirable. For example, "Me falta dinero" translates to "I am missing money," indicating an absence of money that you don’t have, or money that you should have, but somehow it’s missing.

   Note that when you add “hacer” in front of “faltar”, it means you are missing someone! → “Me haces mucha falta.” (“I miss you a lot.”)
