Let’s practice the vocabulary by reviewing your family
tree.
Vamos:
Me llamo Jorge. Soy ingeniero. Mis
padres son Juan y Renata. Mi padre es médico; mi madre es enfermera. Yo estoy
casado con Marla. Ella es una actriz de teatro. Mi esposa y yo tenemos dos
hijos: Elena y Daniel. Elena es estudiante en la escuelasecundaria. Daniel
asiste a la universidad. También tengo una hermana, Marta. Ella vive en Colombia.
Trabaja en un banco. Marta tiene un hijo, Cristobal. A Elena y Danielles gusta
visitar a su tía y a sus primos en Colombia.
