La Leyenda de La Patasola - a podcast by Small Town Spanish Teacher
from 2020-12-27T15:00
This third season of Simple Stories in Spanish is focusing on legends. Today’s legend comes from Colombia. La Patasola is a deformed ghost creature. As her name indicates, she only (sola) has one leg (pata or pierna). What caused her demise? Why does she hop around on her leg tormenting others? The answers to those questions and more appear in this retelling of “La leyenda de la Patasola”. The legend is mostly told in the past tense. Repeated words include “infiel” (unfaithful), “enamorado” (in love), “celoso” (jealous), “patrón” (boss), “lavar la ropa” (wash clothing), and “mujer” (woman/wife). No matter where you are in your language journey, stories will help you on your way.
