Question

cultiva una rosa blanca,
en julio como enero,
para el amigo sincero
que me da su mano franca.

y para el cruel me arranca
el corazon con que vivo,
cardo ni ortiga cultivo:
cultivo una rosa blanca.

escribe dos cognados que ves en el poema.

Explanation:

Identify the question

The prompt asks to write two cognates found in the poem: "Escribe dos cognados que ves en el poema."

Define cognates

Using Spanish Vocabulary, cognates are words in two languages that share a similar spelling, meaning, and pronunciation because they share a common origin.

Analyze the poem

Let's scan the poem "Cultivo una rosa blanca" by José Martí for Spanish-English cognates:

• "rosa" (rose)
• "julio" (July)
• "enero" (January)
• "sincero" (sincere)
• "cruel" (cruel)
• "cardo" (thistle - not a cognate)
• "ortiga" (nettle - not a cognate)

Select two clear examples

"Rosa" (rose) and "cruel" (cruel) are excellent, highly recognizable cognates. Another pair could be "julio" (July) and "sincero" (sincere). Let's provide "rosa" and "cruel" as they are very direct.

Answer:

Dos cognados que se encuentran en el poema son:

1. Rosa (cognado de rose)
2. Cruel (cognado de cruel)
