EXAMPLE

Mi rutina mañanera empieza con un café recién hecho.

My morning routine starts with a fresh cup of coffee. ☕

And visiting you all here. 😎 🌞

@FireMonkey That is the first time I've encountered that word. From which region does it hail?
I learned book Spanish in school years ago. Now I'm using Duolingo since all 3 g'kids are taking Spanish in school. Duo constantly throws new words from different regions, and I'm like "Wut" 🤔

@wolfwoman
Same, new to me too. Like you, HS Spanish for a semester or 2, TexMex construction Spanish - all vulgar, a few months in Honduras in the 90s, now half my time in PR and several years of Duo. But this is from my daily email from Spanish dictionary.com. I don't know where it is commonly used.

@FireMonkey Thanks for info. I spent most of my life in CA, so I mostly learned Mexican Spanish. As an adult I once worked in a restaurant with Spanish speakers from all over central and south America. First time exposed to many different dialects & words, not to mention cussing in kitchen Spanish! My worst experience was the college prof who spoke Castilian - or should I say "cathtillian"? Ugh.

@wolfwoman
...and it kind of seems like someone who might be a morning person "Yo soy un mañanero bueno."

@FireMonkey
That sounds more likely than just, "Voy a desayunar por la mañana."

I'm not sure why but it seems different to me.
