GCSE Spanish Revision – Internet Module – Key Vocab

Of course, social media represents something of a ubiquitous presence in modern life, and, as discussed in the French revision blog, new vocab about the Internet appears every day. In GCSE Spanish revision there is no exception. So, although a Spanish social network called Tuenti is as or even more popular than Facebook, it is most likely that you will be using FB to connect with any Spanish friends in the future, so this vocab will have real-life application.

Vocabulary surrounding Facebook will also be very useful to have in speaking and writing exam situations, and, although this specific vocab is not on the syllabus for GCSE Spanish revision, it will be very relevant to bring up in any question surrounding the topic of ‘the Internet’. So, let’s look at some Spanish vocab about Facebook and impress some examiners!
