A Few Curiosities of Spanish
<p>This is a fun word. It isn’t one of those “English doesn’t have it,” things. It’s just a bit unique and clever.</p>
<p>In English, “<strong>unos/unas</strong>” translates to something like “<strong>some</strong>, <strong>a couple</strong>, <strong>a few</strong>,” or “<strong>around</strong>, <strong>about</strong>, <strong>or so</strong>.” For example, you might say, “See you in <strong>a few</strong> weeks,” or, “I need <strong>a couple</strong> apples,” or “I live <strong>about </strong>five miles from work.”</p>
<ul>
<li>“Let’s meet up in <strong>a few</strong> weeks.”<br />
<em>“Nos vemos en </em><strong><em>unas </em></strong><em>semanas”</em></li>
<li>“You need <strong>a couple</strong> papers.”<br />
<em>“Hace falta </em><strong><em>unos</em></strong><em> documentos.”</em></li>
</ul>
<p>Great, so what’s so interesting? What’s so interesting is that “unos” is the plural of “uno”.</p>
