Learn Spanish Tenses: Actions that are happening currently. In this video, I will teach you to how to express actions that are happening at the time you are speaking. You will learn that the present simple in Spanish is not used to express an action that is happening at the moment you are speaking. Instead, you will need a combination of verbs: the verb “to be” -- “estar”, and your actual action. Por ejemplo, “I am running” -- “estoy corriendo”, “I am cooking” -- “estoy cocinando”, “I am thinking” -- “estoy pensando”. I am doing all those things while saying I am doing all those things. You will learn how to build this tense. In fact, it is a combination of Spanish verbs and it is usually called the Spanish gerund, gerundio. You will soon see that this Spanish verb combination tense is simpler than you think. Spanish verbs always end with either “ar”, “er”, or “ir”. These are the three conjugations. They are always referred to as first conjugation -- “primera conjugación”, “ar”; second conjugation -- “segunda conjugación”, “er”; third conjugation -- “tercera conjugación”, “ir”. Place the first conjugation in one jar. Take the second and third conjugations and place them together in another jar. Why? Well because the second and third are BFFs, and do not like the first conjugation because the first conjugation in Spanish is a snob. In fact, they hang out with different people: "ar" hangs out with “ando”. The others, “er” and “ir” go out with “iendo”. Do you want to know where, how, and why the verbs that end with “ar”, “er”,
“ir” in Spanish hang out with “ando” and “iendo”? Then watch this lesson!

Nosotros en italiano también lo llamamos "gerundio" y es muy similar: camminare (caminar) = camminando vedere (ver) = vedendo dormire (dormir) = dormendo

I love Spanish because of how intrinsically transparent the language is formatted. In English, you can be vague and avoid telling details by saying “my friend” but in Spanish because of the way the language is structured, you tell more details about the person. “Mi amigo” is my guy friend. Same with this video about present tense.

I love you approach to teaching and I pray You do it. 1. Videos teaching us tenses(present, past, imperfect, conditional etc) and how to form for all type of verbs. 2. That cheat of every word ending with "dad" ends with "tion" in English..eg felicidad in Spanish is felicitation in english..im not sure I got this, I just want you to get what I'm saying...thanks and I hope you see this. Graçias.

@konradhalman5104 6 жыл бұрын

The english equivalent of -dad is -ty, ex. universiDAD - universiTY, ciuDAD - ciTY. The other pair of endings is -mente -ly, ex. realMENTE - realLY, probableMENTE - probabLY. Now I can't think of any more.

It forces to students to focus harder and improves their listening skills while learning new concepts at the same time. So, please, in your new videos, try to speak much more Spanish! Best!!
