does anyone know what merienda means in spanish??

Question

..the homework...

Answer 1

Yes, I know what it means in Spanish. By the way, Spanish is spelt with capital S

Answer 2

The 'merienda' is the dinner, not a snack. At least in Mexico, I'm mexican.
Young people don't use this word very often..it's kind of old, we just say 'cena' that means dinner as well.

Answer 3

Depends on the region, but is a meal ingested in the evening.

In some parts it is dinner (but it must be light, not a full meal like dinner in anglo-saxon cultures).

In other parts, it is something like a second breakfast, being breakfast something very light at dawn, "merienda" would be something substantial somewhere around mid day. (South of Mexico uses it this way sometimes).

Hope this helps.

Answer 4

The word may be 'Merienda' meaning 'tea'. It can be used as an irregular verb, meaning 'to have tea'. To have a snack is a good colloquial explanation.

Answer 5

merienda means that it's a snack enjoy

Answer 6

Marienda means snack in spanish.

Answer 7

it's the afternoon snack...

for example my grandma in Mexico is oldfashioned,
she prepares...

early in the morning, breakfast (milk, coffee, toast, pancakes, crereal, etc)

around 10:30-11am, lunch (sandwich, chicken salad, etc)

around 2pm a very complete meal (soup/ rice, salad, meat/chicken/fish, dessert)

around 5pm comes the "merienda", for her would be coffee & milk with sweet bread, fruit, etc but it could be any snack.

at night the dinner ( something not that heavy).
