5. She had to pick up six GALLONS of milk for the daycare.
[ ] galónes
[ ] gallones
[x] galones
[ ] galóns
To find the correct answer here you need to know the correct spelling. The Spanish word for gallon is galón. When a word has an accent mark in the last syllable and that word is then made plural, the accent mark is dropped. Therefore, there should be no accent mark in the pluralized word. The first and last answers show an accent mark so they are not correct. In Spanish, only one L is in the word. The second answer shows two L’s so it is not correct. The third answer shows the correct spelling and translation for the word gallons.
6. Today in our math class we learned all about ANGLES.
[ ] tazas
[x] ángulos
[ ] kilómetros
[ ] anchos
The Spanish word for angle is ángulo. As the accent mark is not in the last syllable, it remains in the plural form of the word. Therefore, the Spanish word for angles is ángulos.
