Lis tells the story of a terrible day: she oversleeps, a magazine on the floor sends her hopping to the kitchen, and the motorway is one giant tranc贸n. But the real surprise is the tense she tells it in. Rob picks the story apart line by line, borrows a joke opener English speakers already use, and shows how the present tense can make your own stories in Spanish easier to tell and more vivid.

Quick test: Why does Lis start with ayer tuve un d铆a horrible but carry on with son las siete de la ma帽ana cuando suena el despertador?
