“ka”

¡Hoy es lunes lingüístico!     (Today is linguistic Monday!)

La fecha es el siete (7) de febrero del año dos mil veintidós. (The date is February 7, 2022.)

La letra de la semana es K.     (The letter of the week is K.)

Siete (7) palabras con la letra K     (7 words with the letter K):

1 (uno) –kayak(kayak)
2 (dos) –kermes(true bug; kermes)
3 (tres) –ketchup(ketchup)
4 (cuatro) –kiosco(kiosk; newsstand; refreshment stand)
5 (cinco) –kiwi(kiwi)  
6 (seis) –koala(koala)
7 (siete) – kungfú(kung fu)

Why are there so many cognates (words that look similar and mean the same thing in both languages)? Most of the words that begin with K in Spanish are adopted from different languages.

Practice saying one word each day of the week.

¡Que tengas un lunes lindo!     (May you have a beautiful Monday!)

L. A. Feliz
