101 Que No He Hecho
Back in high school Spanish class, we played a game called, “No he ...“ it was a way to learn to use a funky verbage thing. he + verb + ado/ido. Like… No “he hablado en espaquot;... except that’s a lie because I have. Uh, anyhow, what it means is, “I have never…“ I’ve seen this as a drinking game, too, where you go around the table and one person says something they’ve never done, and if other people have, they have to drink. Fun.
Anyhow, I figured since I listed 101 things about myself, I could list some things I’ve never done… in English, since I’m a lot rusty on my Spanish.
