Распространенные ошибки у носителей испанского языка

Spanish speakers sometimes make these mistakes when talking about food:

Mistake 1: Saying "I have hunger" instead of "I am hungry."

In Spanish, you say Tengo hambre (I have hunger). But in English, we use the verb to be:

  • I have hungry.
  • I am hungry.

Mistake 2: Using "like + verb" without "to."

После like, use to + verb или verb + -ing.

  • I like eat apples.
  • I like to eat apples.
  • I like eating apples.

Часто задаваемые вопросы

How do I ask for food in a restaurant?

You can say, "Can I have a sandwich, please?" или "I would like some water."

What is the difference between "fruit" and "fruits"?

Fruit is often uncountable (e.g., I eat a lot of fruit). Fruits is used when talking about different types (e.g., apples, bananas, and strawberries are fruits).

How can I remember new food words?

Try making flashcards, labeling food in your kitchen, or watching cooking shows in English. Practice using the words in simple sentences every day.
