Este fin de semana se ha celebrado las Fiestas de San Antón , el patrón de los animales.
Las celebramos con algunas fotos de nuestros mejores amigos peludos, y un poco de inglés también 🙂
Aquí os dejamos algunas expresiones y phrasal verbs en inglés relacionados con los animales. Los peces son sospechosos? Los gatos son copiotas? No lo creo, sin embargo, ¡existen las siguientes expresiones muy comunes!
