I´ve been thinking and... I´m going to give a present to you, but I want you to do something in return. Try to answer the questions we haven´t answered in class, by looking for the answers in Internet:
Cordoba´s mosque:
Who started its construction?
What does it look like in the outside? Why?
Alhambra palace:
Which three parts is it composed of? (Write the names)a) Defensive part
b) Official part
c) Gardens
I´m waiting for your answers; as soon as you do, I´ll give you my present!

3-a)palace b)fortress c)courtyard.
Please give us the present! :)
Where is the gift ,Pilar? xD
ReplyDeleteSorry! I have put is instead of are!
ReplyDeleteHii Pilar¡¡¡
ReplyDelete1º The caliph who began the constructions was called Abd-Al-Rahman
2º I think that the mosqueis like a fortress because its façade is like a wall that hold something important
Well... Goodbye, and don´t make the exam soo long... among other things to avoid the long comentaries of Laura :P
sorry Pilar I forgot to put "I" after Abd-Al-Rahman and that other caliphs completed the mosque :P
ReplyDeleteOne question Pilar: How do you say alfiz in English? or it´s the same?
ReplyDeleteGoodbye! :D
Hi! Be calm! I´m preparing the exam now, so I haven´t got the present yet.
ReplyDeleteSonia: Where are your answers?
Carlos: Your answer to the second question is right (Farid and Mª Isabel, I asked about the outside!)
Mª Isabel: we haven´t got a special word for alfiz in English. Remember: the alfiz is the typical frame that surrounds the arch in Islamic architecture.
The answers about the parts of the Alhambra are not right. I need the real names (Arabic names, sometimes)
But...I want more answers!Where are the rest of pupils? I think that only three of you work and the rest take advantage of it... :(
I´ll write to you later!
Anonymous, thank you for writing. We were waiting for you! Now we know how to catch you. :D
ReplyDeleteAnyway, as you can imagine, we know who you are. Shame on you!
**Cordoba´s mosque:
ReplyDelete1-> Who started its construction?
The construction began in 785 by Abd-Al-Rahman I
2->What does it look like in the outside? Why?
The columns seem palms. If you look at it from different points gives you that feeling.
**Alhambra palace:
Which three parts is it composed of?
a) Defensive part ->
b) Official part ->
c) Gardens ->
¿?, I don't know the question three. Where I find this answer?
P.S: Before I was saying, where is the gift for the exam?
Guauu¡¡¡ my answers are good¡¡ I only need a ten in the exam :p (it´s imposible)
ReplyDeleteByee¡¡¡ and we wait for your present
1. Abderrahman started its construction.
ReplyDelete2. It looks like a fortress because it's surrounded by a battlemented outer wall with a lot of tower-like buttresses.

b) Moorish palace
c) Generalife (the Muslim Jennat al Arif).
