Meaning of "sleeping" ("durmiendo"), detailed definition, and a short video lesson below.
Sleeping means your body and brain are resting and you are not awake. When you are sleeping, your eyes are usually closed, your muscles relax, and you don’t usually talk or move much (unless you snore or kick the blankets!). Sleeping helps your body grow, your brain remember things, and your energy come back so you can play, learn, and run around the next day.
