Vocabulary Review: expressions with tener

THis is a quick review of expressions you should know using the verb tenet. You should review the forms of tener before doing this activity. Make sure you can put these phrases into an original sentence after you've correctly identified what they mean. CAREFUL: we communicate these things differently in Spanish than in English. Note that we say the we "have" these things rather than we "are" these things in English. Because we have these nouns, we don't much, not very, in Spanish. Note that the word mucho must agree in gender (muchA hambre, but muchO sueño, for example).
