For example, <span data-no-translation>A camel has humps.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>Watch Nature Shows:<\/strong> Watch documentaries in English and try to identify the animals you hear about.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<table>\n<caption>Common Animals and Their Categories<\/caption>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Animal<\/th>\n<th>Category<\/th>\n<th>Key Feature<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Bee<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Insect<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Makes honey<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Spider<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Arachnid<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Spins webs<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Mosquito<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Insect<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Bites<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Parrot<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Bird<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Colorful, can talk<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Gorilla<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Mammal (Ape)<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Large and strong<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Camel<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Mammal<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Lives in the desert, has humps<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Tiger<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Mammal (Wild Cat)<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Striped, powerful<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Whale<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Mammal (Marine)<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-no-translation>Very large, lives in the ocean<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2>\u4f8b<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><span data-no-translation>I saw a colorful parrot at the bird park.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-no-translation>Be careful, there's a spider on the wall.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-no-translation>The tiger moved silently through the tall grass.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-no-translation>We need to close the window to keep mosquitoes out.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-no-translation>A blue whale can be as long as three school buses.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>\u7df4\u7fd2<\/h2>\n<div class=\"h5p-iframe-wrapper\"><iframe id=\"h5p-iframe-1399\" class=\"h5p-iframe\" data-content-id=\"1399\" style=\"height:1px\" src=\"about:blank\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"I05 L7 VOCABULARY Animals\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<div class=\"lc-cta lc-cta-placement\" style=\"border-radius:14px;padding:30px;margin:30px 0;text-align:center;color:#fff;background:linear-gradient(135deg,#2B87DA,#29C4A9);\"><h3 style=\"color:#fff;font-size:22px;font-weight:800;margin:0 0 8px;\">\u270d\ufe0f \u81ea\u5206\u306e\u30ec\u30d9\u30eb\u304c\u308f\u304b\u3089\u306a\u3044\uff1f<\/h3><p style=\"margin:0 0 16px;opacity:.95;\">\u7121\u6599\u306e\u30ec\u30d9\u30eb\u5224\u5b9a\u30c6\u30b9\u30c8\u3092\u53d7\u3051\u3066\u3001\u30b1\u30f3\u30d6\u30ea\u30c3\u30b8\u8a8d\u5b9a\u8a66\u9a13\u5b98\u304b\u3089\u3042\u306a\u305f\u306b\u5408\u308f\u305b\u305f\u30d5\u30a3\u30fc\u30c9\u30d0\u30c3\u30af\u3092\u53d7\u3051\u53d6\u308a\u307e\u3057\u3087\u3046\u3002.<\/p><a href=\"\/ja\/%e3%82%a4%e3%83%b3%e3%82%b0%e3%83%aa%e3%83%83%e3%82%b7%e3%83%a5\/%e3%82%a2%e3%82%ab%e3%83%87%e3%83%9f%e3%83%bc\/%e7%84%a1%e6%96%99%e4%bd%93%e9%a8%93\/\" style=\"display:inline-block;margin-top:8px;padding:13px 30px;border-radius:8px;font-weight:700;text-decoration:none;background:#0A2540;color:#fff;\">\u7121\u6599\u30d7\u30ec\u30a4\u30b9\u30e1\u30f3\u30c8\u30fb\u30c6\u30b9\u30c8\u3092\u53d7\u3051\u308b<\/a><\/div>\n<h2>\u30b9\u30da\u30a4\u30f3\u8a9e\u8a71\u8005\u304c\u3088\u304f\u72af\u3059\u9593\u9055\u3044<\/h2>\n<p>When learning animal vocabulary, Spanish speakers sometimes make a few common errors:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Confusing general and specific terms:<\/strong> Sometimes learners use a general word like <span data-no-translation>insect<\/span> when a specific name like <span data-no-translation>bee<\/span> \u307e\u305f\u306f <span data-no-translation>mosquito<\/span> is more appropriate.
