Spanish Word of the Day: 'Suegros'

As soon as you're officially dating, your partners parents are given the title of 'parents-in-law', even if you aren't married yet. It's a LOT simpler than the English version!

Let's see how we use it:

• Me encanta la comida de mi suegro - cocina muy bien

       I love my father-in-law's food, he's great at cooking.

 

• ¿Qué tal con tu nuevo chico? ¿Ya has conocido a tus suegros?

       How is it going with your new guy? Have you met his parents yet?

 

• He quedado con mi suegra para tomar un café.

       I've made plans with my boyfriend's mother to have a coffee.

 

• No puedo quejarme, mis suegros son muy generosos con nosotros.

        I can't complain, my in-laws are so generous to us.

Pronunciation:

su-eh-gros
