معنی
Used to inquire about the current weather conditions.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Spain, the 'terrazas' (outdoor cafe seating) are a way of life. People ask about the weather specifically to know if it's 'tiempo de terraza'. In Mexico, 'clima' is very common. You might hear '¿Cómo está el clima?' more often than '¿Qué tiempo hace?', especially in formal news. Argentines often use '¿Cómo está el tiempo?' with the verb 'estar'. They also have specific winds like 'El Pampero' that people discuss frequently. In tropical regions, the question is often about the 'calor' (heat) or 'lluvia' (rain) specifically, as the temperature is consistently warm.
The Silent H
Never pronounce the 'h' in 'hace'. It's 'AH-seh', not 'HAH-seh'.
Time vs Weather
If someone asks '¿Qué tiempo hace?', don't look at your watch!
