How To Say “To Wear” In Spanish
In today’s blog post, I am going to talk about the Spanish verbs used to say “to wear.”
How To Say To Wear In Spanish
One thing I find interesting about the Spanish language is that there are so many verbs to use for the English verb “to wear” as in “to wear clothes.”
You may hear native Spanish speakers use the verbs “poner,” “vestir,” (literally, “to dress”) “llevar,” “usar,” and “lucir” for the English verb “to wear.”
The last one (lucir) suggests to wear proudly.
Let’s take the phrase “I am wearing shorts” and let’s say it in Spanish:
Tengo un puesto un chor.
Tengo puestos unos chores.
Estoy vistiendo unos chores.
Estoy llevando unos chores.
Estoy usando unos chores.
Estoy luciendo unos chores.
How To Say Shorts In Spanish
The word “chor” or “chores” is a “palabra inglesa” or a word that was taken straight from the English language.
In fact, I have checked my Spanish dictionaries and cannot find the word “chor” or “chores” in my Spanish dictionary. That’s because the word “chor” or “chores” is actually the English word “shorts” pronounced with a Latin American accent.
Note that the word can be said either singular (chor) or plural (chores). But be careful with the pronunciation. If you pronounce the word with the English “sh” sound of of “shorts” no one will understand you because the “sh” sound does not exist in Spanish. Be careful to pronounce this word with a “ch” sound.
Without getting off topic, another word that’s a “palabra inglesa” that I have heard used in Colombia is “show.” Although it has roughly the same meaning as the English word “show” it is pronounced with a Latin American accent.

Again, be careful with the pronunciation. If you pronounce the word with the English “sh” sound of of “show” no one will understand you.
So make sure you pronounce “show” with a “ch” sound so that the word sounds like “cho.”
Back to the topic of “shorts” . . .
Another word that I have heard used in Colombia for shorts is “bermudas.”
As in English, in Spanish, the word “bermudas” usually refers to “pantalón holgado que llega hasta las rodillas” or “baggy pants that extend to the knees.”
So what is the word that they use in Spain for “shorts”?
Oddly, I cannot tell you from personal experience although I spent most of the summer in Barcelona,
Spain a couple of years ago. Which was also when the heat was unbearable and I had to wear
“chores” everyday. Since I was staying with friends from the “República Dominicana” who now live in Spain,
I was exposed to a lot more Caribbean Spanish than I was exposed to European Spanish. But since “estoy muy comprometido” — “I am very committed” to helping others learn Spanish, I did some research online and learned that the word for “shorts” that is used in Spain is:
pantalones cortos
By the way, one thing that surprised me during my stay in Barcelona is that I met so many Colombians who
are living in Barcelona.
I even ate at a Colombian “restaurante” while in Barcelona — and that made me
feel right at home 🙂
90,000 Spanish Prime Minister urged officials to give up ties | World news | Izvestiya
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez called on the country’s officials to stop wearing ties to save energy. This was reported on July 29 by El Economista.
The Spanish politician did not elaborate on the link between removing the accessory and saving energy, but the suggestion is that the idea behind the proposal is to reduce the use of the air conditioner. According to APNews, the Spanish government, against the backdrop of an abnormal heat with indicators of +40 degrees, recommended that the population not abuse air conditioning systems.
“I don’t wear a tie, which means we can all save energy, and I asked all ministers and all government officials. And the private sector, as far as possible, so that when it is not necessary, they do not use a tie, and in this way we will save everyone, ”the Spanish leader explained.
He also added that he encourages the private sector to follow suit.
It is noted that Sanchez’s initiative aroused indignation among the country’s population.
“You have to commute to work for eight hours at the training ground on a bike to save energy, and Pedro Sánchez rides in [airplane] Falcón even for bread, but he goes without a tie,” the publication quotes a comment from one of the users of the social network Twitter.
“Sanchez will defeat climate change alone, without a tie, because it’s hot in Spain,” added another Spaniard.
On July 4, Spanish Minister Margarita Robles urged people to prepare for a tough winter due to problems with gas supplies from Russia. She noted that this scenario became possible due to the policy of the West directed against the Russian Federation.
On June 21, the head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, in an interview with the Spanish newspaper El Diario, said that Europe is able to replace Russian gas supplies via Nord Stream if residents lower the heating temperature or change the temperature regime of the air conditioner by two degrees.
Such a decision, added von der Leyen, supposedly will be able to offset the shortage of energy resources. The initiative of the European Commission was met by the Europeans negatively and criticized.
On July 13, Dmitry Birichevsky, director of the Department of Economic Cooperation of the Russian Foreign Ministry, called Western sanctions against the Russian Federation exhausting their own economy and noted that because of them, Europeans are threatened with winter without heating, and summer heat without air conditioning.
Western countries have decided to reduce their dependence on Russian energy resources against the backdrop of a Russian special operation to protect Donbass. However, all this has already turned into economic problems in Europe, causing a sharp rise in fuel and food prices.
The situation in the region escalated in mid-February due to shelling by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Since 2014, the Ukrainian authorities have been conducting military operations against the residents of the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics, who refused to recognize the results of the coup d’état in Ukraine.

Face masks: what the Spanish flu can teach us about making them mandatory
express-novosti.ru
Should people be forced to wear face masks? This is a question facing governments as more countries lift their restrictions. More than 30 countries have made masks mandatory for the public, including Germany, Austria and Poland. This is despite scientists saying that masks do little to protect, and can only prevent them from being infected by others. The correspondent of IA “Express-Novosti” understood the issue.
©express-novosti.ru
Nicola Sturgeon, the first Scottish minister, has announced new rules recommending that Scots wear masks for shopping and on public transport, while the UK government is expected to announce a new position soon.
Meanwhile, US Vice President Mike Pence refused to introduce such rules. All of this echoes the great flu pandemic known as the Spanish flu, which claimed the lives of some 50 million people in 1918-20. This is a great example of how people will put up with very strict restrictions if they think that the introduction of strict quarantine measures is degrading to them.

The Great Shutdown
In the US, no disease in history has led to such intrusive restrictions as the severe flu. They included the closure of schools, churches, theatres, cinemas, department stores and barbershops, and introduced rules on how much space should be allocated to people in enclosed public spaces. There were penalties against coughing, sneezing, spitting, kissing and even talking in the open air – those who were called “big talkers”. Special influenza police units have been dispatched to round up children walking the streets and sometimes even in their own backyards.
Restrictions were similar in Canada, Australia and South Africa, although much less so in the UK and mainland Europe.
Where there were such restrictions, the public accepted all this without much objection. Unlike the long history of cholera, especially in Europe, or the plague in the Indian subcontinent from 1896 to 1902, there was no mass violence and accusations were rare – even against Spaniards or minorities.
Face masks were closest to what people most objected to, although masks were often popular at first. In The Oklahoma City Times on October 1918 describes an “army of young female soldiers” appearing “in crowded places with gauze shields covering their faces.” The same month, The Ogden Standard reported that “masks are fashion,” while The Washington Times talked about how they became “common” in Detroit.
A shift in science
From the beginning there was scientific debate about whether masks were effective, but the focus began to shift after the French bacteriologist Charles Nicole discovered in October 1918 that the flu was much smaller than any other known bacterium.
This news quickly spread even in small American newspapers. Cartoons were published that said, “How to use barbed wire fences to prevent the spread of flies.” And yet it was just at a time when the death rate was rising in the western states of the United States and Canada.
Despite Nicole’s discovery, various authorities have begun making masks mandatory. San Francisco was the first major US city to do so in October 1918, which lasted for three months. Canada did the same, and New South Wales, Australia followed suit when the disease arrived in January 1919 (the state based its decision on scientific evidence older than Charles Nicole’s). The only US state to make masks mandatory was California, while on the East Coast and elsewhere, including the UK, they were simply recommended for most people.
Numerous photographs survive after Nicole discovered that large crowds were wearing masks. But many began to distrust the masks and considered them a violation of civil liberties.
According to a November 1918 report in Global City Utah from Utah:
“The common man wore a mask tied around the back of his head until he was in the sight of a policeman, and most people had holes cut to pierce the cigars.
Naughty
A league against masks and protests and civil disobedience has formed in San Francisco. People refused to wear masks in public or displayed them incorrectly. Some went to jail for not wearing them or refusing to pay fines. In Tucson, Arizona, a banker insisted on going to jail instead of paying a fine for not wearing a disguise. In other Western states, judges regularly refused to wear them in courtrooms. In Alberta, they were fined in police courts for not wearing masks. In New South Wales, reports of violations flooded newspapers immediately after masks became mandatory. Even porters with flu symptoms didn’t follow the rules.
England was different. Masks were only recommended as a precautionary measure in major cities and then only for certain groups such as flu nurses in Manchester and Liverpool.
Serious questions about effectiveness arose only in March 1919 and only in the scientific community. Most British scientists have now united against them, with the Lancet calling the masks “a dubious remedy”. These arguments are steadily supported by statistics from the US. The head of the California Department of Health introduced at the end of 1918 year results from a study at a San Francisco hospital showing that 78% of nurses became infected despite carefully wearing masks.
Doctors and health authorities also released statistics comparing San Francisco’s death rate to neighboring San Mateo, Los Angeles and Chicago, neither of which have made masks mandatory. Their mortality rate was either “not worse” or less. By the end of the pandemic in 1919, most scientists and health commissions were in agreement about the benefits of wearing masks. Obviously, many of these details are relevant today. This suggests that the frivolous requirement has become such a problem, while stricter rules have banned things like talking on the streets, kissing or attending religious services – even in the heart of America’s Bible Belt.
