Hi Everyone,

This is to let you know that we will no longer be writing articles on this blog.
NO MORE POSTS HERE…
We have created a brand NEW website to help everyone learn Spanish for free.

From Monday 6th of June 2011 we have a new article every day (from Monday to Friday).

We have also been creating a course to learn Spanish for Free which includes Audio, Video, Downloadable exercises and content and much more (yes including a blog).

The English course will appear on our www.woodwardspanish.com website from the 1st of March 2012.
Meanwhile, follow our new Spanish blog on the same site, like us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter and you will learn A LOT of Spanish over the next months.

See you over there.

Have a GREAT day!

El pasto crece más verde en el patio del vecino

El pasto crece más verde en el patio del vecino.

Significado: significa que nunca estamos conforme con lo propio, siempre envidiamos lo que otros tienen.
Ejemplo: Por que envidias la casa de Don Pepe, o piensas que el pasto crece más verde en la casa del vecino.

el pasto = the grass
crecer = to grow
más verde = greener
el patio = the yard
el vecino = neighbor

In Spanish you use más to compare two things and say that it is more than something else (A comparative – in English the comparative adjective usually end in –er… or has more before it)

más grande = bigger
más pequeño = smaller
más inteligente = more intelligent

This is similar to the English expression: The grass is greener on the other side.
