Mi madre quiere reutilizar la bolsa de tela para comprar fruta en el mercado.

Yes. Both are correct, but they feel slightly different.

• mi madre is neutral and a bit more formal
• mi mamá is warmer and more personal, and very common in everyday speech

In Spain, both are used. In a neutral written sentence like this, mi madre sounds perfectly natural.

Because after querer, Spanish normally uses an infinitive when the same person does both actions.

Here, mi madre is the person who:

• quiere = wants
• reutilizar = to reuse

So the structure is:

querer + infinitive

Examples:

• Quiero comer
• Queremos salir
• Mi madre quiere reutilizar la bolsa

If the second action had a different subject, Spanish would usually use que + subjunctive:

• Mi madre quiere que yo reutilice la bolsa

Yes, it is a real and common word, especially in environmental, practical, or slightly formal contexts. It means to reuse.

That said, in very everyday speech, many people might also say:

• volver a usar
• usar otra vez

So:

• reutilizar sounds perfectly correct
• volver a usar can sound a bit more conversational

La suggests a specific bag: one that the speaker or listener already has in mind.

So la bolsa de tela is more like:

• the cloth bag
• that cloth bag

If you wanted to mean just any cloth bag, with no specific one in mind, you would say:

• una bolsa de tela

Spanish often uses the definite article when the item is known from context, even when English might sometimes choose a.

It describes the material of the bag: cloth or fabric.

In Spanish, de + material is a very common way to say what something is made of:

• una mesa de madera = a wooden table
• una botella de plástico = a plastic bottle
• una bolsa de tela = a cloth bag

So de tela works like a material description, not possession.

Because para expresses purpose: for / in order to.

Here, the idea is that she wants to reuse the bag in order to buy fruit at the market.

After a preposition like para, if the next idea is a verb, Spanish uses the infinitive:

• para comprar
• para comer
• para salir

Por comprar would mean something very different and would not fit this sentence. Por often expresses cause, exchange, means, or movement through, not purpose in this kind of sentence.

Because fruta is being used in a general, non-specific way.

In Spanish, when talking about buying, eating, selling, etc., a noun often appears without an article if it means some or fruit in general:

• comprar fruta
• comer pan
• beber agua

If you were talking about specific fruit, then an article could appear:

• comprar la fruta que necesitamos
• comprar unas frutas tropicales

So comprar fruta is very natural.

Because en el mercado tells you where the buying happens: at the market.

• en el mercado = in/at the market
• al mercado = to the market

So:

• comprar fruta en el mercado = buy fruit at the market
• ir al mercado = go to the market

If the sentence were about movement toward the market, then al mercado would be right. But here the sentence is describing the location of the shopping action.

In this sentence, it most naturally expresses the purpose of reusing the bag: she wants to reuse the cloth bag for buying fruit at the market.

In practice, English and Spanish can both allow a little overlap here:

• it can feel like the bag is intended for that activity
• but grammatically it is most naturally linked to the purpose of reutilizar

So the main idea is: she wants to reuse that bag so she can use it when buying fruit at the market.

A little, yes, but the original order is clear and natural.

Original: Mi madre quiere reutilizar la bolsa de tela para comprar fruta en el mercado.

You could move some parts for emphasis, for example:

• En el mercado, mi madre quiere reutilizar la bolsa de tela para comprar fruta.

But many changes can make the sentence sound less natural or make the meaning less clear.

The original word order is a good model because it keeps:

1. the subject first
2. the verb phrase together
3. the purpose phrase after that
4. the location at the end

In Spain, reutilizar is roughly:

reh-oo-tee-lee-THAR

The important Spain-specific point is the z sound:

• in most of Spain, z is pronounced like th in thin

A rough pronunciation of the whole sentence in Peninsular Spanish could be:

Mee MA-dre KYE-re reh-oo-tee-lee-THAR la BOL-sa de TE-la PA-ra kom-PRAR FROO-ta en el mer-KA-do

A few notes:

• quiere sounds roughly like KYE-re
• j does not appear here
• r in madre is a light tap
• stress falls on MA, KYE, THAR, BOL, TE, PRAR, FROO, KA
