In the city

Hello and welcome to a new post! Today, we will learn some new vocabulary about things we can find in cities. For that, I have selected several pictures of cities that I am sure you will recognise.

The station (La estación)

  

The taxi (El taxi)



The telephone booth (La cabina telefónica)

/ˈtɛləfoʊnbuːð/



The underground/tube  (El metro)



The street (La calle)



The bus (El autobús)



The opera (La ópera)



The museum (El museo)



The Eiffel Tower  (La torre Eiffel)
  /ˌaɪfəlˈtaʊəʳ/



The traffic light (El semáforo)
                                                      /ˈtræfɪklaɪt/


The city lights (Las luces de la ciudad)

                                                            /ˈsɪtilaɪts/


If you click in the transcriptions of the words you can hear how they are pronounced.

EXERCISE:

Now try to match the pictures with the words:

The city lights - the museum - the taxi - the bus - the opera - the station - the Eiffel Tower - the traffic light - the underground/tube - the street - the telephone booth







                                












                                








I hope you enjoyed the post and you learned something new. I will see you again in the next one!

Welcome

   The main purpose of my blog is to provide a funny and interactive way of learning or improving vocabulary by travelling virtually to different places.

   It is aimed to travellers or people who really enjoy travelling, who want to learn new vocabulary or extend it.

   I will use images and short videos to help me to do so and to make the learning process more easy-going and enjoyable.
