¿Quieres un acertijo?

This past week Libia was my teacher again. She is whom I ran into in the mall the first week. We worked together the week before too. The day after I went to the meeting on La Florida, we were talking for a while about whether or not it was just for the workers of the coffee plantation La Florida (that I learned about last night) to take over the plantation after struggling in legal ways unsuccesfully for 20 years. After we finished up with that and I was copying my new vocab words, she said to me ¨¿quieres un acertijo?¨I asked her what an acertijo was and she said, a bit unsure, ¨a muzzle.¨ Of course, I was like, a muzzle!? Like para un perro? I know I can talk a lot, but isn´t that what this whole spanish school thing is about? I started describing a what a muzzle is and then we both looked up in our respective Spanish-English dictionaries ¨acertijo¨and ¨muzzle.¨ When I gave her the translation of muzzle, we both broke down laughing. It was great. And after, we told each other some acertijos, or riddles.
