Spanish for your holiday · Chapter 1: Greetings and first words

How are you?

To the next lesson

The twelfth entry: ¿Cómo está? – how are you?

You are still with the co-presenter (cómo) who has just told you his name. At the door behind him a new guest comes in, evidently a winemaker, holding a few bottles of wine – and the co-presenter walks over to him.

On his back you can see branches tied to large poles so they grow straight (está). The poles are large because the stress falls on that syllable – a trick that keeps coming back in this course.
