¡Vamos al mercado! ｜ Aprende español en contexto (Spanish Comprehensible Input) ｜ Ep.89

Hi everyone. I'm Olga. And I'm Miguel. Well, guys, right now we're on a trip to Oporto, Portugal. And what are we doing here? We're on vacation. But we also want you to learn everyday Spanish with words that are used on the street. Of course. Spanish in context. And today we thought we'd go to the market. It's very close from here. Are you coming? Let's go. We're going to the market in that direction. So we have to cross the street through Paso de Zebra. But we have to wait for the traffic light to turn green. Well, the traffic light is already green. We can cross. We're crossing, we're crossing. Look, guys, there's a fire truck here. It looks like there's been an emergency because there are firemen, there are ambulances. Yes. What are you looking at? How to get to the market? We took the wrong street. We should have gone down the other street. Really? Yes. No, but it's close, it's close. We'll have to go down the street a bit. Down the street? Yes. Wonderful. Look at these beautiful tiles here. They are beautiful. There are many buildings here that have a covered façade of tiles, super beautiful. And now, in fact, we're going to show you the Chapel of the Souls of St. Catalina, which is incredible. You'll see it now. But first we have to get to the market. Yes, it's close to the market. It's practically in front. Yes, you have to go around the market. It's on the other side of the market. Behind the market. It's behind the market. Perfect. Here we go. Now we go this way. This way? Yes. Phew, there's shade here, thank goodness, because it's sunny. Yes, yes, it's very hot. Yes, yes. Guys, this is the first time we've been to this market. We have no idea what we're going to find there. Well, apparently it's very beautiful. It's a tourist attraction. I see a lot of people out there. Yes, yes. I'm sure it is. I've read that it's one of the most emblematic places in Porto. And it's a pretty old market. I think they opened it in 1918, if I'm not mistaken. Now we're here. Well, the traffic light is red. And now, when it turns green, we cross. We're all in a hurry to cross. People cross in red. People cross in red. Let's go. Oh, it's already green. Let's go. You know, when a car crosses in red, it's said that the traffic light goes off. But people don't cross, only cars do. It's over there. Yes. The church is over there. Oh, what a rush, guys. There's a lot of people. And we're almost getting to the church. Here's a woman who's roasting chestnuts, which is also very traditional in Spain these days. The chestnuts are really good. Do you like chestnuts? I love them. And you can make them at home. But once we made them, remember? And we forgot, because you have to cut the chestnut a little so it doesn't explode. And we forgot to cut them. And, of course, pam, pam, pam. Now we're going to cross the street, because here's the church, the chapel of the souls. Yes. Come on, it's in green. Here's the chapel. Wow. How cool. My goodness. Guys, this church is really cool. I love it. It's covered with tiles. Tiles. Or tiles, it's also called tiles. And, well, there are more than 11,000 tiles in total. And they're painted by hand. It's incredible. And not only on this facade, but also on the side facade. Come on, follow me. We'll have to cross. Because, of course, you can't see from here. And when we cross, you'll see, guys, it's incredible. Really beautiful. It's a work of art. I think it dates from 1929. Come on, it's in green. If I remember correctly. Let's see. Is there enough time? Do we have to run? I don't know. You can see the side facade from here. This facade is really beautiful. And now, finally, we're going to the market. And, finally, we've arrived at the market. Miguel is there. Oh, there's a piano. Don't you want to play the piano? You're learning. No, no, no. Come on, cheer up. You sound... No, you're embarrassed. No, I'm not embarrassed. We're not going to play. You know how to play a little. Don't tell me you don't. With that piano, it's different. The keys are harder. It has a mechanical mechanism. It's harder to play. And, I don't know, it's more complicated. Let's go down the stairs. Let's see what's down there. Up there, there were many handicraft shops. Yes, well, we'll be there. We'll be back. And here they sell food. Wow, how many shops. How many shops. Let's see what's around here. Dried fruits, sweets. Confitada fruit. What's this? Confitada fruit. All of this is very good, to suck your fingers. There's also chocolate. Well, and over here, there's cheese. Wow, there's a great variety of cheeses. A lot. Well, what are they called? They're stands, right? Yes. They're stands, well, it depends on what they sell. For example, there's the butcher shop, the charcuterie. What's the charcuterie? They sell sausages. Sausages. Let's look for one. We've arrived where the butcher shop is. The butcher shops and the charcuteries are together. Because in the charcuterie they sell meat products, like sausages, chorizo, salchichón, things like that. In the butcher shop they sell chopped meat. This market is very touristic. You can tell, right? Yes, yes, it's... It looks better than a more traditional neighborhood market. Look, Olga, I want to show you something that I think your mother would be very excited about. What is it? Now you'll see. Yes, let's see. Well, one second. And look, this thing here on the left. Ah, seeds. Of course, my mother loves the garden. Well, she has a super big garden with a lot of things. And it really is paradise for my mother. Look, guys, what a pumpkin. It's huge. Well, and this is a pumpkin, I think, too. Look, my hand... And this one is even bigger. Is it a pumpkin or a pumpkin? I'm not sure. I don't know. It looks like it has pumpkin skin. Yes, but it could be a pumpkin. It could be. But it wouldn't be a small pumpkin anymore. It would be a big pumpkin. Well, here we have a lot of guindilla shreds, which are spicy peppers, garlic shreds, and onions, too. Look how many guindillas. They have to be very spicy. Look, look, what's the name of the street? The street of hugs. Well, after all this walking, I hope we can have a coffee somewhere, right? With something sweet. Because I have to recharge my energy. You're very... You're very gluttonous. I'm very gluttonous, too. It's true. The thing is, I'm so tall, you can't see me. But, well, let's go a little further to see what's there. Look, here you have a lot of cans of sardines. Here in Portugal, you can find them in all colors. They're very famous. And here we have reached the part where the seafood and fish shops are. And they sell fish and seafood. Fish and seafood, of course. As the name suggests. I'm going to see what's there. Let's see, let's see. Shrimps. Sea urchins. Percebes. Salmon. Mussels. Oysters. Everything looks very fresh and very tasty. I don't understand much about fish, but this big fish that's here is a sea bass, for example. And these are some squids. And this is an octopus. Here they're picking wines. They use the verb catar for wines and degustar for food. Don't you want to pick a little wine? I don't like wine. I prefer degustar. Of course, of course. We already know each other. Look, guys, how many olive oils. They're from here, right? From Portugal? Yes, of course. Look at this one. I didn't know that Portugal produced olive oil. Well, Portugal, yes, yes. Look, guys, here there are dried fruits. Almonds, peanuts, pistachios. Well, a lot of things. These are figs filled with almonds' nuts, and these are dates too, with nuts and almonds inside. Wow, it has to be delicious. Those are ears, I think, also with nuts. I think I see a pear, a dried pear. And here are the pickles. That's delicious, with the sandwich for breakfast. Look how big they are. Incredible. Honey and chocolate. They're your favorite foods, right? You could live only eating honey and chocolate. Me? Yes. Are you talking about yourself right now? Of course. Of course I am. Because you're the one who always buys honey everywhere, in the supermarkets. Of course I do. You're the one who eats it. Of course I do. Well, and now we're going to go up. You can't go up and down. Of course not. Well, here there's a bit of everything. Craftsmen's stalls. Craftsmen's, yes. It also smells like incense. Look what's there. There's a can of sardines and a few bags for people to throw, or sit down, or lie down. But I think they're perfect for throwing up or lying down. And then you can't get up from the back pain. Do you know why? Why? It happens to you. It doesn't happen to me. And why does it happen to me and not to you? Because you're already older. Well, now I'm going to throw up. You'll see how I can get up. Oh, no. There's no one free. What are we going to do? Imagine eating a sardine like this. Let's see, let's see. Throw up, throw up. Are you comfortable? Yes. The truth is that I'm very comfortable. I think I can take a nap here. Yes, yes, yes. I'll wait for you. Oh, no. I'll get up. Let's see if you can't get up now. I think so. Come on, I believe in you. Have you seen how I can do it? You've had a hard time. With total naturalness. Admit it. It's hard for you. It hasn't been hard for me. It hasn't been hard for me. You try. Well, well, maybe another time. Let's see, we can go that way. There are restaurants there. Here are more handicraft shops. Or we go down this big ladder. Well, now to finish, we're going to go to a pastry cafe. We're going to have a couple of coffees with decaffeinated milks, with some sweet, with some cream cake, very typical here. Of course. And well, we'll wait for you in the next video. And don't forget that we have a lot of complementary content on our web app, such as transcriptions, interactive and bilingual, memory cards, vocabulary exercises, a lot. Interactive. Interactive, yes, of course. There's also a writing challenge. I don't know, I don't know what to say. If anyone understands it, put a comment. And vocabulary trainers. No, not vocabulary. And grammar trainers, so you can improve your Spanish a lot. That's right. So, until next time. Bye! All of this cost me €6.40. My goodness, expensive, right? And I ordered it in Portuguese, although I don't speak Portuguese, but all the Spaniards at least speak Portuguese. Cream cakes. Well, they're pastry cream cakes, crema quemada. In Portuguese, they call them cream cakes. And well, let's go there. Wait, and my tea? I'm working. Wait for the infusion to be done. Okay. I've put the bag... I've put the bag in the tea. And now you wait, because you're impatient. Let's see, I'm going to taste the cream cake. Let's see. There's a hair here. It's yours. Are you sure? So, let's proceed to the tasting. Let's proceed. Come on. Well, and what? Good, it's good. What score do you give it? From 0 to 10? Being 0 very bad, and 10... 7, I've tasted better. Here, at the airport. But well, it's okay, it's good. Well, we're going to drink our teas quietly, and thank you very much for being here with us, and see you next time! No, wait. I don't remember, dammit.
