we've done a grand pass. During the first immersion, I've been reading a book very entertaining. It's called the Caterral of the Mar, and is ambientated in Barcelona, in the century 14. They've been told saying that there much vegetation, more than that they were that they were thought in a

principle, so they've caught a lintner more potent to see with more clarity. They've gone by second

An Enconrado el Tesoro. Okay, let's go back and listen to an explanation of this in English so that we can understand exactly what's going on.

So Maria begins by saying that she's got lots of things to tell you. She's talking to her diary, of course. She is once again very tired and indeed her eyes are closing, but she wants to explain the very exciting day that they've had. The adventure isn't yet over, but they have made a. major step forward today. During their first dive, during the boys' first dive, Rory and Alejandro's first dive, she was reading. She was reading a very entertaining book, a book set in Barcelona in the 14th century. And they returned from their first dive, saying that there was lots of vegetation, lots of seaweed, actually more than they had thought the first time.

And so they've been able to get a light, a stronger light, in order to be able to see more clearly under water. So they went down for a second time. Meanwhile, Maria continued reading. They've gone by second ever, and I have continued reading and I'm going to tellicito. And, de repent, at a cabo de half an hour, they suddenly returned. Rory took off his air tank and his flippers and embraced Maria warmly. Obviously, they were very excited and she was full of questions. She wanted to know what happened had they found something she was hysterical she says rory told her that they had found

a chest buried in a small underground cave she thought they were pulling her leg but they had indeed found a treasure chest and of course this left maria full of questions what will we do now what's inside the chest is it very heavy will you be able to get it up from under the water will it break Is there something inside and will it be our treasure? Rory is very excited, his heart beating it a thousand beats per hour. But Alejandro simply explains that he doesn't mind whether there is treasure in the chest or not. The fact that they found it is the treasure itself. A me de in a while if that coffre only has a rain.

We've got a treasured. We're a group barbaro. Chikos, this is to festeager. And celebrate. They did. They jumped off the boat into the boat. the water and splashed around and then of course they had to start to think about exactly what they were going to do because they had found this treasure and they needed to work out their next steps they decided to try to unearth the chest from where it's buried and bring it up onto the boat

and then they would open it and hold their breath wait to see what was in sight and everything went exactly as planned. They brought the chest onto the boat. They opened it and discovered inside lots of sand, but also 10 gold bars, three necklaces of precious stones and a box of wood containing 20 diamonds. They have indeed found a treasure. Maria is quite overwhelmed by all of this and even more overwhelmed by the fact that there are more chests in the water she's not going to be able

to sleep tonight because she says she finds herself in the situation of being in the biggest adventure in the world. So Maria does indeed feel that she is the protagonist, the star of the biggest adventure in the whole world. But what will they do

with everything? Well, she's going to sleep on it, to dream a or intend to let's talk about that intentar because I think it's always

interesting to work at how we say to try to do something in Spanish because there are various ways of saying to try to do something.

There's intentar do something but there are also other ways of seeing to try to do something. For example

I'm thinking of tratar. Very very. Trat de dormit a point.

And the interesting thing there is it's try to always, always don't forget the

But with Intentar? Intentar, no, no, it doesn't need anything. It's just the bare as it is. Let's have some examples of this. For example, I'm going to try to terminate my

for the university. So I'm going to try to finish my my work for the university. My, I suppose it's a piece of work. Yeah, you're essay. So there you're talking about try to do do, always got the day in there.

And what about it? But intentar? I'm going to try to my job for the university

at time. Okay. It's exactly the same, but the construction is different. So the

construction is different. We're missing the day with the intent, intent, plus an

infinitive straight away without a day, but try to do a difference.

Is there any difference? Is there a difference? And the meaning, you mean, no, no, no difference. But perhaps

there's another verb, which is provar, which it can be also to try as in taste something.

So to try food, yeah. But it can mean as well to try to do something. As in, I'm going to try to sleep a little. So I'm going to try to sleep a little. It's like, let's see what happens. Let's see if I can sleep or not. It's like more uncertain.

Yeah, so it's less sure that you're going to be able to sleep. Yeah. So you're using probar there. Now, provar can be used normally when we're talking about tasting food. I've probed the ghargis So, So,

probably in the sense of tasting food or trying food but also we can use it in a sense of trying something out to see what happens I'm going to

When you're not sure if you manage to do whatever you are going to try to do well, we've we've shared with some examples

of the Spanish of this text and we And we'll to terminate this version preview of this episode.
