Hello, Vieeros, and welcome back to the final episode of this season of Immersive Spanish. Well, awkward things must come to an end. And sadly, my wonderful. but brief adventure in Sivier is drawing to a close.

I'm in my Airbnb right now, packing my suitcase for my flight back to England. Now, as I pack all my items back into my maleta, my maleta, see? Let's see just how many of them you know in Spanish. I'm going to call out all of the items I'm packing in Spanish. All you need to do is see if you recognize them, or can work them out.

Let's begin. Inside la maleta, I'm packing Ropa. Ropa. Do you know what this is? Imagine using rope to hang and dry all of your clothes. Ropa. La Ropa.

The clothing. Next, I have my sapatos. Zapato's. Or, as you would hear it here in Spain, Zapatos. Zapato's. You use your sapatos to pat the floor. Sapatos.

I'm talking, of course, of none other than shoes. Los sapatos. Next, we have sepillo of dientes. Sepio. Dientes. Know what this is? What do dientes sound like? Think of dental work for your dientes.

Dental dientes. Dientes are teeth. Now, how about sepillo? Cepillo de dientes. Well, sepio is spelt with a double L, hence why it's pronounced like a Y. Cepio. Now, in your head, visualize two L's.

They're long and straight. Kind of like the bristles of a brush. And that's exactly what a sepio is. An sepio. Think of sep in sepillo, sounding like septic. And when you think of something septic, you think of something that needs to be scrubbed clean with a brush. All together then we have

Sepio deientes a toothbrush Next to my sepillo deientes also I've got paste deientes pasta de de dientes

What do you think that is? A paste of d'iientes A paste of teeth? Toothpaste. Pasta deientes. Remember what a toothbrush was then? sepio de dientes marvigioso

very well you guys got this okay so next ah yes this one is easy as long as you keep your ears peeled ready here I have shampoo shampoo

yep it's shampoo it's shampoo yes of course I have here another item we use in the shower. Harbon. El Harbon. Any idea of what Harbon could be.

It's soap. El Harbon. To remember, harbon, think about how it sounds like, hang on! Which is something you need to do with your soap because it gets very slippery in the shower. Or, imagine your friend. is holding your hand, but you have soapy hands. Hang on, habon. Say it.

Hang on, habon. Very bien. Next, I've got an item that you wouldn't want to bring in the shower. Here, what I have, here, what I have, is a carbureor. Un, carigador.

What does that sound like to you? Carga. Think of a cockney, fella. All right, mate, you've got a charger. Charger. Carga. Well, Cargador is a charger. Say it with me.

El Cargador. I also have here my e-ticket, but it's on my phone. I don't need to pack that. An e-ticket, by the way, is on... But, bulleto electronic. Voleto. But guys, what else?

What else do I need to pack? What else do I need to pack? Ah, see. Two things more things. Primero, crema solar and gaffas de sol. items both include the word sun.

Cremas solar and gaffas de sol. Cremas solar, that's sun cream. Whilst gaffas de sol are sunglasses, glasses of sun. Well, what more necessit them packer? Hang on. Somebody's knocking on the door. I, perone. Yeah me go, yeah me voy.

Well, I didn't mention it. yet, but I'm slightly late for checkout, and I don't want to keep them waiting. Furthermore, I called a taxi about 15 minutes ago. I should wait for them outside. I think I have everything I need. I'm pretty sure. Bueno. Bye, Airbnb.

Adios. I guess we'll wait here, under this shady tree. It's not usually the best idea to leave your packing until the last minute, but I only have myself to blame here. I really feel like I'm forgetting. something though. Can we quickly just go of everything for peace of mind? I know. How about I list each item in English, then you repeated in Spanish. That's a win-win. But first, to say I packed, as in I packed my bag or I packed my shoes, you would say

impasse. Impaque. Put an emphasis on the final final E at the end of the word. Empaque. Now, what did I pack in my maleta? What did I pack in my suitcase? Que

empaque in my maleta. Well, first, I packed my clothes, of course. How would you say I packed my clothes? Empaque my roba.

Empaque. Me, roba, I packed my clothing. Then, I packed my shoes. How would you say I packed my shoes? Remember, shoes are those zappy things that we can pat the floor with? Zapato's. Empaque my sapatos. Remember, they're my sapatos, not my sapatos.

My sapatos because they are multiple. Empaque my sapatos. Next. How do you say toothbrush in Spanish? Remember the two L's looking like the bristles of a brush. Sepillo deientes. Sepio. Deiants.

How would you say, therefore, I packed the toothbrush. Empaque el sepio deientes. perfect How about that toothpaste? How do you say the paste of teeth?

La pasta de dientes La pasta de dientes This one should be

easier How would you say I packed the shampoo Empaque the shampoo Empaque It

Jambo Whilst we are on the roll With toiletries Can you tell me the word for soap Remember Soap is slippery So it rhymes with Hang On

It's Harbon Hang on to the Have On Almost there I think I've remembered Everything My sun cream is here at the top of my suitcase.

How do you say sun cream? Cremma solar. Cremma, solar. Finally, and I know I've got these because they're in my pocket. But how would you say? Sunglasses. Gaffas de sol. Gaphas.

De. Soll. Right. Well. Great job. Keep practicing these words and you'll be well prepared for your next journey to the Spanish-speaking world. I think that's everything packed. Acabo de receiviro mensue. I just received a message.

From reception. Uh-oh. My passport! I left my passport in reception. I knew I was forgetting something. I know my passport. Let me just run back into reception and get that. Eh, my passport?

Yes? For favor. Ah, muchismas gracias. Casio lovide. Right, the taxi's here. I'm going to get in. I'm going to get in. Well,
