No Estacionar – Toda La Cuadra Ambos Costados

I found this sign on a post on the side of the road in Santiago, Chile.

The symbol of a red circle with a red diagonal line crossing it universally known as NO (insert thing or activity you aren’t supposed to do)

Notice how there is the letter E instead of a P (for Parking): That is because the E is for Estacionar which means To Park So the sign is saying No Estacionar or No Parking

 

VOCABULARY Estacionar = To Park Todo = All (the entire) La Cuadra = the block (refering to streets) Ambos = Both Costados = Sides

 

Be careful not to confuse Cuadra and Cuadro
