Eight packs of serrano ham

To the next lesson

The next sentence: Ocho paquetes de jamón serrano, por favor.

At the back of the butcher’s hangs a poster of an opera stage where everybody is dancing the cha-cha – in a circle, round like an O (ocho). You are handed a pack containing a small Tesla model next to the ham (paquetes). At the back of the car the boot can be opened (de), and inside sits a cat with soft fur looking at the moon (jamón).

Behind the car lies a lake with a school bag standing beside it that contains nothing but good marks (serrano). And behind that the house with the gate is waiting (por favor).
