Simple Stories in Spanish

Un accidente de coche

Jan 2, 2022

This sixth season of Simple Stories in Spanish is inspired by requests from my listeners. Today’s story comes from a request for vocabulary for doctor-patient interactions. Luis just wants to dance the night away, but a car accident lands him in the emergency room with his date. Now, instead of salsa, he must deal with x-rays, stitches and a cast. What fun! 

This story is told mostly in the the present tense with one paragraph in the past tense. Repeated words and phrases include “choca” (crash), “duele” (hurts/pains), “pierna” (leg), “brazo” (arm), “cuello” (neck), “collarín” (neck brace) “heridas” (wounds), “puntadas” (stitches), “corte” (cut), and “yeso” (cast). No matter where you are in your language journey, stories will help you on your way. You can find a transcript of the story and read along at https://smalltownspanishteacher.com/2022/01/02/simple-stories-in-spanish-un-accidente-de-coche/
