Thanksgiving Turkey

Halloween is over. Winter has not yet begun. I need you to help me transition from candy to turkey. It’s nearing the end of the fall or autumn season and I’ve realized that I haven’t given you some helpful Spanish vocabulary related to this specific time of year. In Utah we experience all 4 seasons. At this time it is cooling down and leaves are falling off the trees. T-shirts are being switched for hoodies and sweatshirts, and jackets are being switched for coats. It’s getting cold out there, but it’s not time to break out the wintertime and Christmas time music. It’s not even time to learn wintertime Spanish. It’s time for some early November Spanish. Maybe this could become a monthly segment, and I give you some Spanish vocabulary that I think you’ll need for the month. Some of it will be serious, and some of it might be slightly humorous. Well, without further adieu, here is November’s list:

Fall/Autumn | otoño
wood | la madera
to chop | cortar
leaves | hojas
to rake | rastrillar
to fill | llenar
to push | empujar
to wear | llevar
to prepare | preparar
I need to prepare for the winter. | Necesito preparar para el invierno.
I need some coffee. | Necesito café.
I don’t want to go outside. | No quiero ir afuera.
I like to watch the leaves. | Me gusta mirar las hojas.
Thanksgiving Day | Día de Acción de Gracias

There are many other things that you can and will say during the glorious month. The reason that November is a great month is because of my favorite holiday of the year, Thanksgiving. I get to spend that day every year with four of my favorite F-words: family, friends, football, and food. Let’s begin early and be thankful! What makes this month so great for you?
