This week’s word is restaurar reh-stah-oo-rahr’ (verb) which sounds more like restaurant but means to restore, to reinstate. Let’s see it in an example or two:
1. Daniel ha ganado mucho dinero restaurando propiedades viejas y vendiéndolas.
Daniel has made a lot of money restoring old properties and reselling them.
2. Los seguidores del destituido presidente han organizado una revuelta, demandando que su candidato se restaure a su posición.
The followers of the deposed president have staged a protest demanding that their candidate be restored to his position.
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.

Thanks for posting this. I love to learn new verbs in Spanish, but sometimes have trouble with the conjugation. This one seems pretty straight-forward.
