VOCABULARIO: BUENA SUERTE (good luck)
ENCONTRAR UN TRÉBOL DE 4 HOJAS ES SEÑAL BUENA SUERTE. Esta superstición es antiquísima, se cita ya en la Biblia. La buena suerte puede deberse, tal vez, a que posibilidad de encontrar uno es remota. Hay un trébol de 4 hojas por cada 10 000 de tres.
FINDING A FOUR LEAF CLOVER OR A SHAMROCK IS A SIGN OF GOOD LUCK AND GOOD FORTUNE. This superstition is very old, there is one mention of the 4 leaf clover in the Bible. The chance of finding one, however, is remote as there is one 4 leaf clover for every 10 000 clover, may be that explain why finding one means 'to have good luck'.
HOW WE WISH GOOD LUCK:
¡buena suerte!
¡mucha suerte!
¡suerte!
¡mucha suerte!
¡suerte!
¡que tengas suerte!
¡te deseo suerte!
¡te deseo suerte!

WORD OF THE DAY in Spanish: Una trifulca (a row)
Una trifulca es una pelea que suele tener lugar entre varias personas, en un lugar público, normalmente con poca violencia pero con mucho alboroto.
A trifulca is a row that usually takes place in a public place, normally with more than two people and with some aggresivity but not violence.
Examples:
Me voy. No tengo ganas de trifulcas
I'm leaving. I am not in the mood for rows.
Es una trifulca sin importancia. Se pelean por nada.
This row is irrelevant. They are fighting over nothing.
