Both laugh.

María: Yes, we will have tacos and burritos too!

Answer 1

Justin: Great! I haven’t tried burritos yet, but I like my tacos with guacamole and salsa.

María: What about jalapeños on the side?

Justin: Oh! No, gracias! That’s too hot for me!

María: Well, we will have tortillas as well, so people can prepare their own fajitas.

Justin: Sounds yummy! I’m hungry already! Where’s the fiesta going to be?

María: It’s going to be in the plaza.

Justin: Are you wearing your poncho? It will be cold outside.

María: Yes, that’s a good idea! Did I tell you that my grandma made it for me? She will love to see me wearing the poncho!

Justin: Is your grandma coming from Mexico for the fiesta?

María: Yes, everybody is coming!

Justin: That’ll be fun! See you there! Adiós!

María: Adiós!

Answer 3

Wow. Well, what they mean by borrowed Spanish words, is words that are in the Spanish language that they are using. An example would be a friend saying "Hola!", when they obviously mean hello. They borrowed a word from Spanish. I see several, but I will only identify four and see if you can see the fifth one.

--> Amigo.
--> Piñata
--> fiesta
--> tacos

Answer 4

There are between 13 and 15 words to choose from. 4 of them are the ones @kewlgeek555 gave to you, but just let me know if you can get the fifth one.
