Episode description

This sixth season of Simple Stories in Spanish is inspired by requests from my listeners. Today’s story comes from a request for underwater vocabulary. The Mesoamerican Reef system is the second largest in the world. Located in el /Mar Caribe, Caribbean Sea, the most beautiful section of this reef is accessible through the island of Roatán in Honduras. Here you can see the plant and animal life that call this tropical paradise home.

This story is told mostly in the the present tense. Repeated words and phrases include “pez” (fish), “bucear” (scuba dive), “aletas” (fins), “tortuga” (turtle), “cangrejo” (crab), “tiburón ballena” (tiburón = shark, ballena = whale), and “choca” (crash). No matter where you are in your language journey, stories will help you on your way. You can find a transcript of the story and read along at https://smalltownspanishteacher.com/2022/01/09/simple-stories-in-spanish-bajo-el-mar/
