Hello! Today’s word is “mañana”. It is an adverb and it
means ‘tomorrow’ or ‘an unspecified time in the future’.
It is spelled m – a – n – a – n – a. The first ‘n’ has an enya over it signifying that the ‘n’
will sound like a ‘y’. To repeat – mañana.
The word “mañana” is derived from the Latin word mána, which means ‘morning’.
Some examples of proper phrase or sentence usage includes:
- mañana
es fiésta - or tomorrow
is a holiday…
- partieron
múy de mañana – or they left early in the morning
- cerrámos
lós sábados pór la mañana - we close on Saturday mornings
- función
de mañana - morning performance, or matinee, depending on the context
- un
mañana inciérto - an uncertain future
- and, perhaps most famously, ¡hasta
mañana! - see you tomorrow!
So, to recap, the word for today was “mañana”, which means
‘tomorrow’ or ‘an unspecified time in the future’.
Well, tune in tomorrow when our new Spanish word of the day
will be “canción”. |
