Hacer la compra

To do the groceries

The act of buying food and household items.

🌍

문화적 배경

In Spain, people often buy bread daily at a 'panadería'. 'Hacer la compra' usually refers to the larger weekly trip to the supermarket, but fresh items are still bought frequently at local shops. The phrase 'hacer el súper' is more common than 'hacer la compra'. Also, 'el mandado' is a traditional term used for grocery errands. Argentines often say 'hacer las compras' (plural). The 'chino' (local grocery store often run by Chinese immigrants) is a common place to 'hacer la compra' for daily needs. In Colombia, 'hacer el mercado' is a very common alternative to 'hacer la compra', emphasizing the 'market' aspect of the task.
