Mi Casa, Mi Familia — My House, My Family in Spanish
For grown-ups
Companion summary
Imagine you could give a Spanish friend a tour of your home — what would you point to first? Knowing these words helps you describe your world to millions of Spanish speakers across the globe. In Spanish, your house is "la casa" and your brother is "el hermano" — two words easy to remember together. When you finish, try drawing a simple floor plan and labelling each room in Spanish.
¿Quién vive aquí? — Who lives here?
Look at this picture of a house. Inside live a grandmother, a dad, two children, and a dog. If you had to describe your own family and home in a different language, which words would you need first? In Spanish, two of the most useful word groups are family members (la familia) and rooms of the house (las habitaciones). Today you will learn both!
