🇬🇧🇪🇸 grandparent - abuelo : English Lesson
noun
Meaning of "grandparent" ("abuelo"), detailed definition, and a short video lesson below.
A grandparent is the mom or dad of your own mom or dad. Your grandparents are the grown-ups who are older than your parents, often have gray hair, tell stories about “when I was your age,” give extra hugs, and sometimes extra snacks, too.
My grandparent can’t remember where they put their glasses, but they can remember every embarrassing thing I’ve ever done in public.
My grandparent tried to dab, pulled a muscle, and then told everyone it was a “traditional dance from the 1900s.”
My grandparent told me they used to change TV channels by walking to the TV, and I thought that was a myth from ancient times.
I taught my grandparent how to take a selfie, but they keep taking pictures of their forehead and the ceiling fan.
You usually have four grandparents—two from your mom’s side and two from your dad’s side—which is four times more people to spoil you with snacks, stories, and slightly embarrassing hugs in public.
My mom opens the door. She says, "This is your grandparent." The grandparent hugs me. The grandparent bakes a cake. The grandparent sings a small song and plays with my toy. I laugh and feel warm. I wave and say, "See you, grandparent." My dad takes a photo. We eat cake together at the table.
