👀 Can you understand this Spanish story? ⬆️
🇪🇸
Imagínate esto.
Son las ocho y media de la noche en España.
Todavía hay luz.
Hay miles de personas mirando al cielo y esperando.
De repente...
el Sol desaparece.
Y en pocos segundos, todo está oscuro.
Por cierto, “de repente” significa que algo pasa rápidamente y sin esperarlo.
La Luna está exactamente entre la Tierra y el Sol.
A esto lo llamamos un eclipse solar.
Durante casi un minuto parece que es de noche.
La gente grita, aplaude y mira el cielo.
Y después...
la luz empieza a regresar.
“Volver” o “regresar” significa to come back.
Esto pasó el 12 de agosto en España.
Ahora dime:
¿te gustaría ver un eclipse solar total alguna vez?
🇬🇧
Imagine this.
It’s 8:30 in the evening in Spain.
There’s still light outside.
Thousands of people are looking at the sky and waiting.
Suddenly...
the Sun disappears.
And in just a few seconds, everything is dark.
By the way, “de repente” means something happens suddenly and unexpectedly.
The Moon is exactly between the Earth and the Sun.
We call this a solar eclipse.
For almost a minute, it looks like nighttime.
People scream, clap, and look at the sky.
And then...
the light starts to come back.
“Volver” or “regresar” means to come back.
This happened on August 12 in Spain.
Now tell me:
would you like to see a total solar eclipse someday?
