Lesson 8

Spanish Vocabulary for Household Items

Our house: it's where we grow up, raise a family, laugh, cry, and everything in between. It's where
we make memories! Vamos! Let's learn how to talk about our casa, or our 'hogar, dulce hogar,' which is
our expression for today! You'll see what it means towards the end of the lesson.

This is our casa from the outside. Now, let's go in and find out how to describe it in español.

Let's see... this house has cinco rooms. From here, we can see la sala, la oficina, la cocina, el
dormitorio, and el baño.
