意味
The activity of preparing the evening meal.
文化的背景
Dinner is typically eaten very late, between 9:00 PM and 11:00 PM. 'Hacer la cena' is often a social activity involving tapas or a light warm dish. The main meal is 'la comida' in the afternoon. 'La cena' is usually lighter, like sweet bread with coffee or tacos, but 'hacer la cena' still implies preparation. Similar to Spain, dinner is late. 'Hacer la cena' might involve a 'picada' (meat and cheese board) or a full meal like milanesas. The concept of 'sobremesa' is vital. Even after 'hacer la cena' and eating, people stay at the table to talk for a long time.
The Silent H
Never pronounce the 'h' in 'hacer'. It starts with the 'a' sound.
Don't forget 'LA'
Saying 'hacer cena' sounds like 'Tarzan speech'. Always include 'la'.
