Maracaibo, Venezuela

¡Hoy es domingo dividido!        (Today is divided Sunday!)

La fecha es el cuatro (4) de agosto del año dos mil veinticuatro. (The date is August 4, 2024.)

Let’s go grocery shopping with a local in Venezuela in this fifteen-minute video. Can you guess how many dollars a grocery list for one person costs?

Do you remember learning about harina P.A.N., arepitas dulces, and cachapas?

Here is new vocabulary from the video:

abastecimiento(supply)
dolarizarse(to adopt the US dollar)
envase(packaging)
traslúcido(translucent)
pelo a pelo(little by little)
soya(soy)
rubro(category)
marcas(brands)
empresa pública(public company)
dorado(golden)
caraota(bean)
cotufa(popcorn)
carne molida(ground beef)
mascota(pet)

¡Que tengas un domingo dorado!        (May you have a golden Sunday!)

L. A. Feliz
