3.5.1 Review: Colors Clothing Culture and the Culinary
Arts
Spanish I Core Sem 1 (S2539954)
Review
Name: ____________________
Date: ____________
Introduction
You have learned quite a bit in this unit. Your new vocabulary includes clothing, colors, food and restaurant
terms, higher numbers, family and household words, and much more. You have learned about prepositions of
location, possessive adjectives and verbs like gustar. Another important verb you covered is tener, 'to have.'
Are you ready to review it all? Remember that this review is designed to help you wil a general overview of what
you have learned so far; if you are shaky on any of the grammatical concepts or if you don't remember a lot of
the vocabulary, it would be a good idea to revisit some of the activities for a more thorough review.
1. That’s my shirt!
So, you just went shopping. You bought some new clothes, and now you can describe them! You should
remember the words for clothing such as sombrero, zapatos, vaqueros, and camisa. You can also describe
what belongs to you and others, using the preposition de. Remember that there’s no such thing as the
apostrophe + s in Spanish.
Here are some of the items of clothing you learned:
La camisa – Shirt
La camiseta – T­Shirt
La blusa – Blouse
Con mangas – With sleeves
La gorra – Baseball cap
Los pantalones – Pants
Los pantalones cortos – Shorts
Los vaqueros – Jeans
La falda – Skirt
El vestido – Dress
Los zapatos – Shoes
Las sandalias – Sandals
Las botas – Boots
Las medias/ los calcetínes – Socks
El suéter – Sweater
El abrigo – Coat
El cinturón – Belt
El sombrero – Hat
You can also use possessive adjectives (singular or plural) to describe things that belong to you. For instance,
‘my baseball cap’ would be mi gorra. You could also talk about ‘his pants’ by saying sus pantalones.
Let's review the possessive adjectives:
Mi
My
Tu

Su
His / Her

You can also tell what colors your clothing is. You know that the adjectives must match the nouns they
describe. Don’t forget that when you talk about ‘black shoes,’ you must say zapatos negros. Or if you talk
about a ‘white shirt,’ you must say camisa blanca.
Remember the colors of the rainbow (arco iris)?
Rojo
Red
Anaranjado

You can talk about being happy about a sale (¡Estoy alegre!) or sad that those nice shoes weren’t in your size
(¡Estoy triste!). Just remember to use the verb estar when you talk about your emotions.

3. Let’s go shopping
You’ll remember that you learned to talk about prices, using the numbers above 100. Remember that when you
talk about only 100, you should say cien, but when you add more numbers to it (142 for instance), it becomes
ciento. Don’t forget that all these numbers will always be plural, but sometimes they can be masculine (if
they’re in front of a masculine noun) and feminine (if they’re in front of a feminine noun). Two examples would
be: doscientos libros and trescientas camisas. Here is a list of numbers two hundred to one hundred
thousand. Hope you like to count!
200
Doscientos
300
Trescientos
400
Cuatrocientos
500
Quinientos
600
Seiscientos
700
Setecientos
800
Ochocientos
900
Novecientos
1.000
Mil
2.000
Dos mil
100.000
Cien mil
When asking ‘how many’ or ‘how much,’ you can use cuánto, but don’t forget that cuánto must agree with the
things you’re asking about. So, if you want to know how much homework someone has, you could say ¿Cuánta
tarea tienes? You could also ask someone how many pens someone has, saying ¿Cuántos bolígrafos
tienes? You should remember that mucho must also match in the same way. This means you’ll need to know
the verb tener, meaning ‘to have.’ This verb is irregular and must be memorized. There are many tener idioms,

or expressions, that do not translate exactly into English. Some of those expressions are tener calor, tener
sed, tener frío, tener suerte, and tener prisa.
Remember the conjugations for tener?
You should be able to talk about shopping, using the verbs meaning ‘to spend’ (gastar), ‘to pay’ (pagar),
and ‘to sell’ (vender). There are many other verbs and expressions that you can use to talk about shopping
trips. Besides clothes, there are other things you might want to buy. What about movie tickets? Or perhaps
a new CD player? You can think about what you want to buy and make a list of what you know.
4. Time to eat
So, it’s time to eat. Well, you can talk about everything involved with eating! You learned to talk about
foods, utensils, and drinks. You can talk about pretty much anything at the restaurant or anything you eat at
home! You can order té, jugo, and agua, but certainly not cerveza! You’ll use la cuchara, el cuchillo, and
el tenedor to eat your food. Here is a list of some of the more common food items you will want to know.
Yo Tengo
Nosotros Tenemos

You learned about shopping at the market in Latin America. Can you remember the metric system conversions?
You also learned many helpful phrases to use at the market, such as ‘How much is it?’ (¿Cuánto es?) and ‘Is
there change?’ (¿Hay cambio?).
You know how to tell about what you like and don’t like, using the verb gustar and other impersonal verbs. You
can also talk about what fascinates you (fascinar) and what bothers (molestar) or offends you (ofender). You
know that these verbs work differently from other verbs. You know that the thing that does the fascinating, the
bothering, and the offending is the subject of the verb. You can say A Ramón le fascinan los libros de

misterio. You also know that infinitives are treated as singular: A nosotros nos gusta bailar mucho.
There are pronouns (me, te, le, nos, os, and les) that you must use that correspond to the person that is
fascinated, bothered, or offended.
You learned how to conjugate regular and irregular –er and –ir verbs. You know that irregular forms should be
memorized, but that the endings are still the same:
–ER verbs
–IR verbs
–o
–emos
–o
–imos
–es
–éis
–es
–ís
–e
–en
–e
–en
Don’t forget all the great phrases you learned to use in the restaurant to talk to the waiter (el camarero)!
5. At home with the family
You can talk about your family and all its members. You already know how to talk about personalities and
physical traits, and now you can describe each member of your family tree.

You can also talk about where you live and which rooms you use for certain things. You can also talk about the
outside of the house.

La cocina

El techo

You can ask your friends where they live (¿Dónde vives?) and with whom they live (¿Con quién vives?).
Remember to use the correct form of the verb vivir, now that you know how to conjugate it!
Of course, when you’re not at home, you can talk about which floor you stay on using the ordinal numbers
(primero, segundo, tercero, and so on). Remember that these are used as adjectives and should match the
noun they describe in gender and number.
You can also ask question using interrogatives, or question words. Some questions you might ask are
cuándo, quién, por qué, and dónde. Remember that, even if there’s no question mark in the sentence, if
the question word is asking a question, you should use an accent. If it’s stating information, no accent is
needed.
Time to Test it Out
Finally, you're ready for the test. Take your time and try to remember all of the elements we've discussed in this
review. Do the very best you can! ¡Buena suerte!
