Explanation: ENGLISH (adjective + noun)

SPANISH (noun + adjective)

all you have to do is look up a guatemalan dish (unless you have learned of a few in your lessons). we cannot provide you with answers because i am assuming you are a connections student due to having to complete a discussion. and that is against our honor code to provide written answers to portfolio, essay, or discussion questions.

good luck!
