11 La Palabra del día: “De” De has several uses in Spanish.
12 ★ To ask where someone is from. Ex: ¿DE dónde eres? Soy DE Michigan
13 ★ To describe something or someone. Ex: La clase DE español (if you translated this literally, it would be the class OF Spanish)
14 ★ It is used in quite a few expressions. Ex: DE nada, DE la mañana
15 ★ It is the equivalent of ‘s in English Ex: El amigo DE Pablo. Pablo’s friend. Los lapices DE Zita. Zita’s Pencils.
16 Estar- To Be Yo EstoyNosotros Estamos Tú EstasVosotros Estaís Él/Ella Esta Ellos/Ellas Estan
17 Remember SER? Yup, that’s right, there are TWO forms of the verb “To Be” in Spanish. Yaaaaay!
18 SER- To Be Yo SoyNosotros Somos Tú EresVosotros Sois Usted EsUstedes Son Él/Ella EsEllos/Ellas Son
19 Estar ✓ Indicates location Ex: ¿Dónde estan los estudiantes? Estan en la clase.
20 Estar ✓ Indicates a condition or state of being that is temporary/happening at a given moment in time. Ex: Cómo estás? Estoy bien, gracias.
21 Let me clarify this last thing…if you are describing a state of being that changes, use estar. For example, if you say you are tired, use estar, because tiredness is not a defining/permanent aspect of your personality. Soooo… Estar is used to express transitory qualities.
22 Ser is used to express a FUNDAMENTAL quality. It expresses the essence of a person or thing, who or what it is.
23 SER ★ Used with De to indicate origin Ex: Soy de Michigan I am from Michigan ★ Used to identify one’s profession Ex: Yo soy profesora I am a teacher ★ Used with de to indicate posession, or what something is made of Ex: El libro es de él. The book is his Ex: la mesa es de metal The table is made of metal ★ Used to indicate time or the date Ex: Son las dos It is two o’clock Ex: Hoy es jueves Today is Thursday ESTAR ✪ Used to indicate location Ex: el libro está aquí. The book is here. ✪ Used to identify a temporary condition Ex: Él está enfermo He is sick La puerta está cerrada The door is closed ✪ Used with personal reactions Ex: Estás muy bonita hoy!

48 Una historia breve de Honduras Honduras has a long history of military control. From 1955-1979 Honduras was under the control of the PLH, Partido Liberal de Honduras.
49 In the 1980’s, the US supported the election of Honduras’ first civilian government in decades. The president elected was a medical doctor named Roberto Suazo Córdova.
50 Excitement over this new civilian government was short lived. In its Cold War ferver, the US government installs military units and training centers across the borders of Honduras and El Salvador in an effort to defeat the newly installed liberal party in El Salvador. This war against the communist leftist movement is referred to as the “Contra” effort.
51 The new liberal party of El Salvador, known as the Sandinista party, was considered to be highly dangerous by the US government, who felt that it would introduce communism (which had already been introduced to Cuba) to the rest of Central America.
52 In an effort to counteract this Communist threat, the Honduran government, with the aid of the United States, brought commander in chief of military forces Gustavo Adolfo Martínez to power in 1982.
53 Although he only held this position for two years, he was responsible for condoning the death, torture, and “disappearance” of hundreds of supposed civilian “subversives” mostly consisting of students, peasant and labor leaders, and progressive religious figures.
54 Prior to the 1980’s, Honduras had had a relatively peaceful history, especially when compared to other Latin American countries. The following poem was written by a leftist revolutionary in Honduras during this period of violence and tension between the conservative military government of Honduras, and the leftists who supported the Sandinista party in El Salvador.
55 Combate Yo soy un poeta, Un ejército de poetas. Y hoy quiero escribir un poema, un poema silbatos un poema fusiles. Para pegarlos en las puertas, en la celda de la prisiones en los muros de las escuelas. Hoy quiero construir y desrtuir, Levantar en andamios la esperenza. Despertar al niño arcángel de las espadas, ser relámpago, trueno, con estatura de héroe para talar, arrasar, las podridas raíces de mi pueblo. Ejercito: army Quiero: I want Silbatos: whistles Fusiles: rifles Pegarlos: stick/fasten Celda: cell Muros: walls Andamios: scaffolds Despertar: wake up Espadas: swords Relámpago: lightning Trueno: thunder Estatura: stature/posture Taler: destroy Arraser: Level Podridas: rotten
56 Clementina Suárez Combate Yo soy un poeta, Un ejército de poetas. Y hoy quiero escribir un poema, un poema silbatos un poema fusiles. Para pegarlos en las puerts, en la celda de la prisiones en los muos de las escuelas. Hoy quiero construir y desrtuir, Levantar en andamios la esperenza. Despertar al niño arcángel de las espadas, ser relámpago, trueno, con estatura de héroe para talar, arrasar, las podridas raíces de mi pueblo. Combat I am a poet, an army of poets. And today I want to write a poem, a whistle poem a rifle poem. To stick to the doors, in prison cells on school walls. Today I want to build and destroy, to raise hope in the scaffolds. Wake the child archangel of swords be lightening, thunder, with a hero’s stature to root out, raze the rotten roots of my people.
