el concerto

Two students sit at a table. Fred is helping John with his Spanish homework. John slouches in his chair while Fred shuffles some flash cards.

Fred: Try them again. You have to know these by tomorrow.

Fred holds up the cards so that the English faces John.

John: El cereal.

Fred flips the card.

John: El meat.

Fred
: No.

John: La meat.

Fred: No...

John: Well why not?

Fred: Not every Spanish word is made by putting an El or La in front of it.

John
: It worked with cereal!

Fred
: Well sometimes it works...
