- The verb hacer is a root for the common Spanish expression hacerse el sueco, which means to pretend not to understand something to avoid doing it.
- While English uses 'do' and 'make' for different tasks, the Spanish verb inside haré covers both, meaning you use the exact same word whether you are 'doing' a chore or 'making' a cake.
