Welcome to MND Tutor! This interactive learning tool is designed to help you improve your Spanish by exploring real news articles from Mexico News Daily. Instead of just memorizing vocabulary lists or grammar rules, you’ll dive into authentic stories about Mexican culture, current events, and daily life… What better way to learn Spanish?
It’s the most wonderful time of the year, of course. Christmas has a slightly different spin on it down here though. In the 1500s, friars arriving in central Mexico saw the Aztec festival Panquetzaliztli — complete with a virgin birth myth and an edible war god — and quietly repurposed its timing and energy into Christmas worship. From that blend came misas de aguinaldo, pastorelas, and posadas, celebrations that drifted from church courtyards into neighborhood streets and, over time, into today’s more secular but still deeply communal Mexican Christmas.
