Practice Version
El Padrastro:
Stepfather. El padrastro. El padrastro is the Spanish term for a stepfather, the husband of one's mother who is not one's biological father.
Example:
El padrastro means “the stepfather.” Picture your new stepdad arriving at the family barbecue wearing a huge “DAD” badge: he’s stepping into a padre (father) role, with a little extra attached—just like padrastro adds an extra bit to padre. Remember: padre = father; padrastro = the dad who steps into the family!
