Flower Parts and Types<\/h2>\n

\"young-woman-in-field-of-sunflowers\"<\/p>\n

In most places, flowers go hand in hand with spring. Here’s some vocabulary for the different flower parts and kinds of flowers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\t\n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t
Spanish<\/th>English<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n

la semilla<\/i> <\/a>\n \/ la simiente<\/i> <\/a>\n <\/td>seed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n

Now that you’ve learned the individual flower parts, you can grow your vocabulary by naming specific flowers in Spanish. Many flower names are English-Spanish cognates<\/a>; that is, they’re the same or similar in both languages (like rosa\u00a0<\/em>\u2014 rose).<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\t\n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t
