I have a question
Is the Dia del Santo a day that people celebrate a kind of second birthday.

I think that is false because that is a day they celebrate because they share a saint's name, correct and not a second birthday

Aha! Having a Saint's Day means that you can celebrate twice = once for your birthday and one on your Saint's Day!

But I'm still confused-then is it a kind of second birthday?

Thank you

Sra made it as clear as possible. Your saint's day is like a second birthday.

Thank you

I'm sorry I didn't mean to be a pest-
I apologize

You are not a pest. It's always great to see people ask questions when they don't understand. Remember -- no question is ever a stupid question.

True, indeed! Only serious students ask questions; that's how they learn and we are only too happy to help serious students! Sorry, I thought you would understand that it is "true" from what I said! I'll try to make it clearer next time.

Thank you very much-I appreciate you helping

The question asked whether the Dia del Santo is a day that people celebrate as a kind of second birthday. Initially, there was some confusion about the answer, but then it was clarified by SraJMcGin.

SraJMcGin explained that having a Saint's Day means that you can celebrate twice - once for your birthday and once on your Saint's Day. So, in a way, it can be seen as a kind of second birthday.

If you were still confused, it's understandable because the initial explanation was not clear. It is always helpful to seek further clarification when you are unsure about something.
