Spelling - Spelling Baseball - 2nd Base

In this Spanish Difficult Review quiz you will continue playing baseball. That is, a spelling baseball game, so let’s get to 2nd base! As you learned in the Spanish Difficult Review quiz titled Spelling Baseball – 1st Base!, this subseries of quizzes has been designed to test you on your Spanish vocabulary and your understanding of Spanish word placement or order. Of course, to test you – why not have a little fun with a game of spelling baseball.

There are four bases in the baseball game, i.e., 1st base, 2nd base, 3rd base and home plate. You can quickly get around all the bases if you hit a homerun! That means that each quiz is a little more difficult than the one that preceeded it.

Remember that in Spanish when you want to add 'er' to a word, 'más' is placed before the word to make that word more. Therefore, to say 'more hard' you would say 'más duro' which, in turn, means 'harder'. Each answer has correctly translated this. The Spanish word for than is que. (Note no accent mark. If this word had an accent mark, i.e., qué) it would read as what. Each answer again has translated this correctly. The first answer reads harder than cement. The second answer reads harder than furniture. The third answer reads harder than daffodil and the last answer reads harder than stone.
