Our word for this week is: la lealtad leh-ahl-tahd’ which is a noun that means loyalty. Something my husband seemed ot have a problem with but I digress! This is actually a pretty great word to learn. Here it is in a couple of examples:
1: En un acto sorprendente de valentía y lealtad, el soldado regreso a la batalla para ayudar a sus compañeros.
In an astonishing act of bravery and loyalty, the soldier ran back into battle to help his comrades.
2: Carlos es muy buen trabajador, pero no tiene ningún sentido de lealtad. Irá adonde le paguen más.
Carlos is a very good worker, but he has no sense of loyalty. He’ll go wherever they pay him more.
I live in a small Georgia town that you most likely have never heard of and I LOVE it! My house is more than full as I am a single mother of four & caregiver to my aging mother and uncle. Lover of all things Outlander. Goes to the beat of her own drum woman.
