Lo mismo 😂😂

I have trouble with this sometimes too depending on where the person is from. The thing is the only way to get better is to listen over and over again, so I guess you have a lot of podcasts, interviews, shows, and movies to watch and hear! You got this!!! XD

Estoy seguro que lo harás 😉. Just keep doing!!

@@rubenmorenog7223 thank you. Going to Costa Rica this month. Besos y abrazos

Genial!!!

Yo también

Lol Acting in movies was never on my list of things to do, but gracias!!! Glad you liked the video!

Parce, Muchas gracias bro. Tú debes hacer un video con personajes Colombianos. Eso sería bacanísimo!!

Hey, now...some of us gringos cannot pronounce the rr....which is why I am so delighted to be married to a Puerto Rican!! “R” does not exist there! Nor does “s” exist :-)

Gracias lol. Ve que to share it with others! And thanks for the sub bro!

My advice get off of due lingo. So much better apps out there

@@benjibarry1082 like....?

@@abbieamavi babbel is good in my opinion

I appreciate your kind words! It was a lot of work, but I enjoyed it. I wanted the bathroom thing to go on longer and to be a little different, but I decided to cut it for timing purposes I figured you guys would get the gist of it.

Gracias hermano!!

Lol that's what it's like for a lot of people. Were you ever like that in the beginning. I was never that bad, but I have used the "sí" before when I've been in situations where I can't hear the person very well lol

It's actually in the works! Stay tuned.

Wow that's so awesome! and thank you for watching!!! I have a dream of living in a Spanish speaking country too. I have to wait til i'm about your age unless I decide to re-marry my ex wife lol. Can I as you why you would like to know how long it took me to become fluent? I say this because a lot of people ask me this, when at the end of the day it has nothing to do with how long it takes them to learn the language. It's all about how much effort you put into it. To answer your question though, it took me around 2.5 years. You don't necessarily need to speak to a Spanish speaker all of the time. If you've been following my channel, you'll see that a lot of my ways are unorthodox. I recommend talking to yourself out loud to better your Spanish. I know it sounds weird but it helps you to sharpen skills and it's always great to come across something that you didn't know how to say, so that you can learn it. I did that and still do, I read books to find random new words, Watch shows, Listen to podcasts from different places about different things, and keep doing your post-its. If you plan on moving to Spain, start acting like you live there now and limiting your English to the bare minimum and you'll see great changes. Don't forget to review the fundamentals and keep studying vocab. If there is a will, there is a way.

Thanks Rickie. The reason I asked about how long it took you to learn Spanish was purely curiosity. Partly, also because it's clear from your videos that you have an in depth knowledge of how the language works and your explanation of things is always very comprehensive. In my experience, many L2 S panish speakers and teachers cannot explain things properly or in a way that is easy to understand. You do. When I ask people (which doesn't happen often tbh) how long they took to learn Spanish they usually tell me somewhere between 18 months and 5 years. Those that take longer can read and write Spanish perfectly but here in the UK particularly, if you embark upon a language course, there is very little speaking/conversation/ listening done. So people become proficient in writing things down, not in holding even basic conversations. I also find it a little strange that many people stick to one learning method when it doesn't really work for them. I do talk to myself in Spanish, in the bath, at home, when out shopping, in the street. You should see the funny looks I get! 🤣😂 I watch KZfaq videos in Spanish, listen to music in Spanish and although it costs a lot, I have Spanish TV at home. I also practice with my 13 year old Son who is learning Spanish at school. Anyway, I hope I answered your question fully xx

Ah ok ahora entiendo jaja. I'm so used to people asking because they magically think they my time will affect their jaja. Here in the US it's worse. People take courses andnot only can they not speak, they can't even write! it's the worst! Keep up the hard work, amiga! : )

Same my ears starting getting read because I was sitting here thinking "I sound just like the gringo" Que lastima!

Same!

Yes, I knew that if it happened to me, others could relate too, so I had to put it out there. I still get lost sometimes when talking to Cubans. Some of them just talk so mumbly, but I'm getting better since I literally see them every time I fly.

Let me tell you that I did that accent to show you that you could still be correct at Spanish and have an accent. I wasn't necessarily making fun of it, but just using it to show that that character wasn't native to Spanish, but if you pay close attention you could se that he was communicating just fine with the Spanish speakers. They could understand him, he just couldn't understand them. So if you sound like him, that is not a bad thing, however, if you wanna lose the accent, then just keep practicing. Does duolingo accept your answers? I know what you mean with the trying too hard thing. I've never felt it, but as a Spanish speaker, I have thought that others have tried too hard before lmbo, but 1. What does it matter? and 2. It was because they were just doing extra stuff for no reason lol. If you just imitate exactly what you hear, you'll be fine.

GRACIAS, socia! : )

Gracias!! Glad you liked them, socia!

Lol exactly. Real life and text book Spanish are completely different.

Jaja Gracias! This was fun.

Gracias a ti por tu apoyo!! : )

Gracias por verlo. Creo que en Guatemala hablan muy claro así que no tendrás problemas con entenderlos, a menos que usen "vos" en vez de "tú"

That was my favorite one to make lol

gracias mol! : )

Jaja gracias!I need to make an Argentine accent video.

Rickie Walls sí porfa

Sííííí me gustaría mucho porque mi maestra es de Argentina :)

Tato : )

The closet door tho! 😂👌🏽

Gracias por el video* Escuchar the different phrases* Gracias por comentar y apoyar el canal mano! Sigue mejorando. Un día no será tan difícil.

Lol así es a veces.

Te agradezco por ser tan amable! Gracias!

Gracias manito!

Gracias!!

Thanks! I try haha. Appreciate your comment!

Lol It doesn't sound the most flattering, but I never judge because I understand that everyone doesn't wanna sound like a native, or they simply can't. As long as the grammar is correct and the vocab is good, then they'll be fine. Thanks for your support! More videos on the way.

Habrán más skits en el futuro mano. Me gusta hacerlos. Gracias por tu apoyo como siempre!

Gracias!!! aprecio tu apoyo. Me encanta hacer estos videos.

I just try to make learning fun bro. Gracias!

cuarto isn't pay me. It is "money" lol puerto ricans say "chavo" Dominicans also say "la funda" some other countries say "plata" or "lana." Hey I was in your country for three days but didn't know how to contact you lol. I was in Port of Spain.

When next are u coming back?? U should apply for a job at the University, u can take over the Spanish Department!

I would never work at a University. Too many rules, and too many people who don't really want to learn. I hate to waste time.
