Commenting on the weather.
문화적 배경
In the central plateau of Spain, the phrase 'Nueve meses de invierno y tres de infierno' (Nine months of winter and three of hell) is common. 'Hace mucho frío' is a badge of honor for people from cities like Burgos or Ávila. In Mexico City, because of the high altitude, it can 'hacer mucho frío' in the shade but be very hot in the sun. People often dress in layers (like an onion) to cope. In Patagonia, 'hace mucho frío' is often accompanied by 'mucho viento.' The wind chill factor is a major part of the conversation. In these 'cities of eternal spring,' 'hace mucho frío' is used whenever it rains or the sun goes down, even if the temperature is 15°C, because houses often lack central heating.
The 'H' Rule
Always remember the 'H' in 'Hace' is silent. Don't pronounce it like 'H' in 'Hello'.
Avoid 'Muy'
Never say 'Hace muy frío'. It's the most common mistake for English speakers. Stick to 'Mucho'.
