Spanish Lesson 4 - Shops

Bakery - Panadería
Supermarket - Supermercado
Bank - Banco
Autoteller - Coches Eller
Pharmacy - Farmacia
Butcher – Carnicero
Hairdresser – Peluquería
Shop – Tienda

Our favourite shop to look for was... the Panaderia. Walking into a village we could smell them and go and find them.

Carne means meat - so we could work out some shops and what they sold by knowing food names
