This free audio lesson is all about the House in Spanish. Do you know the Spanish word for house? What about rooms around the house? After this free Rocket Spanish lesson you’ll be able to describe the house or apartment you live in, and the furniture and appliances in each room.
So let’s get to know your house in Spanish! Listen carefully to the pronunciation on the audio, and follow the English translation. Practice saying the Spanish words aloud, and then try them out on your family and friends!
