U7 L3 Comprar, Quedar, Faltar

1. This week you learn how to use these verbs:
COSTAR – To Cost (how much $ does something cost?)
QUEDAR – To Remain (we are using it to refer to how much money you
have left over from a purchase.
FALTAR – To Be Missing (we are using it to refer to how mucy money you
have left over from a purchase.)
Let’s take a look at the verb Costar:
It will be either singular (cuesta) or plural (cuestan).
Look at the noun you are referring to – what costs the amount you are
talking about?

practice

4. Now let’s talk about Quedar and Faltar
QUEDAR – To Remain (we are using it to refer to how much money you have left
over from a purchase.
FALTAR – To Be Missing (we are using it to refer to how mucy money you have
left over from a purchase.)
Unlike the majority of the other verbs
we have learned this year, you are going
to conjugate Quedar and Faltar to
match the noun to which it is referring.

8. Let’s put these three verbs
together to create two diffenent
paragraphs:
Yo compro una camisa. La camisa cuesta
doscientos colones. Yo tengo tresciento y
cincuenta colones. Me quedan ciento cincuenta
colones.
Yo quiero comprar un vestido. El vestido cuesta
cuatrocientos colones. Yo tengo doscientos
colones. Me faltan doscientos colones.
