Welcome back and thanks for reading!
In honor of the grand project I started this weekend, today’s word is:
Escribir
[es-kri-BEER]
which in English means to write.
Here’s how it’s conjugated in the present:
Yo escribo [es-KRI-bo] (I write)
Tú escribes (you write)
Él/ella/usted escribe (he/she/you write)
Nosotros escribimos (we write)
Ellos/ellas/ustedes escriben (they write)
Here’s a fun idiomatic expression related to the word escribir:
Estaba escrito.
[es-TAH-bah es-KRI-to]
which literally means It was written, but figuratively means It was fate, It was meant to be, or It was written in the stars.

I try to learn vocabulary as much as I can. I would love to be fluent, but alas time is not on my side. I traveled in Mexico and Guatemala, and fell in love with the language.
I ran across your site today, and have enjoyed browsing! I’m new to the “frugal” blogging world, but am trying to get the hang of it!
