In this lesson I will train you how to say Pleased New 12 months in Spanish. I will also explain to you how Christmas is celebrated in Colombia whilst educating you some new vocabulary phrases.
This is how you say Pleased New 12 months in Spanish:
“Feliz año nuevo!” But in new year status say “Feliz año!”
My first calendar year in Colombia I celebrated the Xmas vacations in Barranquilla, Colombia. But each and every year following that I celebrated the Christmas holiday seasons in Medellin. Barranquilla and Medellin, just like the relaxation of Latin America, in fact celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve, the 24th.
Every 12 months, I have a typical Colombian Christmas meal right here: A meal consisting of “pollo relleno” (stuffed chicken), “buñuelos” (I would describe these as fried cheese balls), “natilla” (raw sugar pudding).
The only big difference among my Christmas supper in Barranquilla and my the one particular in Medellin is that my new “novia paisa” (girlfriend from Medellin) cooked the “pollo relleno” from scratch. The pollo relleno that I had on the coastline of Colombia was presently pre-cooked when acquired from the
“supermercado” and was already stuffed with “carne, aceitunas, y huevos.” (meat, olives and eggs).
Becoming a non-traditionalist, I found myself cooking a couple of non-Colombian dishes for my “paisita” on Christmas Eve. The last time I went to New York I created positive that I purchased all the Puerto Rican and Dominican cooking ingredients that I would want to get back below to Medellin to cook dinner some
Puerto Rican or Dominican dishes that I had discovered from Boricua (Puerto Rican) and Dominican pals in New York.
From New York, I brought back again Sazón, Adobo, Cilantro and, of program, Sofrito. I would describe “Sofrito” as a marginally”picante” (spicy) Puerto Rican tomato sauce.
And with individuals substances, I managed to prepare dinner Puerto Rican or Dominican type dishes of “arroz amarillo” (yellow rice) and “habichuelas” (stewed pink beans). But in Medellin, the word “habichuelas” indicates “string beans” and “frijoles” indicates “beans.”
