It has suddenly occurred to me that a significant aspect to comprehension is familiarity and prediction; in our native tongue we can generally predict and interpret along with what’s being said. When we’re unfamiliar with a language, we generally have no idea what’s about to be said and we don’t begin to fully interpret until after the sentence is completed. Then we’re struggling trying to remember all the words that were spoken and trying to interpret each word individually after the fact.

Use "Ser" verb when talking about something permanant like your name, sex, place of birth etc. Use "Estar" when talking about something that can change like where you're going on holiday, your body temperature and so on. E.g Estoy frio = I am cold. I used "Estoy" because I won't be cold forever. "Soy Jose" = I am Joe. I used _Soy_ because my name will always be Joe. I'm a beginner but I hope this helps someone!

Duolingo didn’t break this down. Thanks a lot. I will be buying the course soon

If I could give you five stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ I would. Three years of Spanish class and couldn’t lick a wall with the words on my tongue. 20 minutes here and it’s connecting!

Learning all the tenses together like this is very useful. Language Transfer has a good tip for "Ser" and "Estar" which is "Characteristic or State." And you are so right when I get stuck I just use the infinitive and someone will correct me. Spanish people are super helpful.

Thank you for the chart and the presentation of the tenses together. I needed to see the overview of these verbs.

15 more times to go to rewatch this video. This is the CORE

This would be a two year lesson in school, in a language book they make this confusing, but with you 20:29, straight to the point and easy to understand. You're a genius. Gracias Maestro.

i want to learn spanish - at least basics I've never visited an English speaking country (i've lived in Russia my whole life) - but somehow i've learned english watching various tv series with subtitles, reading books, articles and all that - no tutors, paid courses or anything like that. Now it's time to learn spanish, i really like how it sounds and how it's phonetically consistent (much like russian) I already have started to watch spanish movies with english subtitles for time being, but planning to watch it with spanish subs soon. There's going to be a lot of pausing and looking up words in vocabulary at first - something i like doing Learning languages gives me joy! I hope this channel will help me!

Ah man, thank you for doing this! Also, I like the way you break down the difference between the preterite and the imperfect.

Worth watching several times,thanks Rocky!

You're a good teacher. Your work is much appreciated!

This was so helpful! Thank you so much, and I will have to revisit this video again

Thank you so much for your help. God bless you

I really want to learn spanish. So Im excited to watch your videos

Thank you Mr. Very useful ❤

Traveling to Bogota, Colombia in a few months and I want to be in a much better place with my Spanish skills. This video helped tremendously. I struggle with when to use Estar VS Ser (BIG time) and por VS para. But I think I will take your advice of sticking with Ir a + the infinitive.

Thank god I’ll be in Spain for 6months and I have yet to be comfortable with Spanish. This helps so much!

My hat is off to you . Thank you. You're a prince of lessons.

Thank you! You are awesome. I really enjoy learning with you!

Muy interesante,...muchas gracias señor,...

I like this video to learn spanish.Thank so much sir.

Thank God I watch this video on how to conjugate the Spanish verb tener as future tense... I'm watching a Netflix series called cable girl and they're definitely using future tense of tener

I really like your lessons, they are very clear. Thank you

You're the GOAT of Spanish revision, my guy! 👊

This channel is awesome. You break things down so well. Its much appreciated for us new learners.

Probably best content I’ve seen so far 👍🏽

Yo the best👍 am so grateful 🤝

Great video!

very thorough. thanks

Very helpful....gracias.... I have been looking up verb conjugations lately & it was So dificil to find the future tense of ir! All kinds of other tenses ( not all of Ir , of course) ie present participle, present subjunctive, imperfect indicative,future indicative, preterite indicative, past participle, peterite perfect , conditional perfect, pluperfect....OMG !! My English grammar is good but I don’t even know the names of all the tenses in English! I appreciate your simplifications & explanations or I would have already given up.

Useful video!

Me ayudaste!

Thanks alot man keep up the good work and I just love the way spanish caribbean countries speaks Spanish but its a bit hard to understand but its not that crazy to me because im from an English speaking caribbean country we cut out the "S" and and add "dem" to make some words plural eg "pick up your pen and dem"😆😂

When would you use the fui chart?

Hey...I know you from your basketball tips vids..👍

So when do you use the tenses of ser and when do you use the estar tenses if ser and estar both mean to be???

Heck yes

Former Spanish teacher here☺️...what do you recommend for students who are doing various online programs to get these tenses memorized? I am a little old school and that when I taught Spanish one for an entire school year I would do present tense, present progressive, and intro to the preterite and imperfect in the spring with intentions of reviewing in the fall and then hitting preterite in perfect and future pretty hard in second year. I love the idea of giving them the ability to memorize these and unrecognize these verbs in the beginning . My thought is how much time to spend on each regular verb, then the irregular verbs, etc? Especially right now I have a lot of friends who want me to help their students through some of these online programs where they're just churning out answers but have zer o retention of the verb forms so how to get them to memorize these in the time I have with them or what tips to give them for the time when they're studying on their own.

i luv you rocky

Would be cool if you had a sheet to print out

Hi there: A note about the tenses: Imperfect is exactly what it means: An action that has no definite ending in the past... it's sort of the past continuous in English : I was eating (in French je mangeais, in German it's the preterite (ich ass, ich spielte)... the timeframe is unclear. Preterite in English: I ate (between 12 and 2 pm), Freanch je mangeai (without the s it's pronounced the same way, can also bbe the passé composé j'ai mangé, or the German ich habe gegessen...) It's complicated, but I teach German, and the kids get the message quickly when I explain why the Germans call a tense "perfekt" ...

Can someone explain imperfect perfect preteret tense simple

I want to put together a music playlist, but I want to make sure I'm learning Mexican Spanish and not Caribbean, Murcian or any other version of spanish. Are there any artist you would recommend? I'm also learning on my own so forgive me if this question is kind of elementary. lol

Where are the slides?

Where is the link for the slides?

Hi, did you add the slides? I can’t find those. Thank you for helping us with this!

I wanted to know is there 1 on 1 conversation exercises in your program?

Do you have these flash cards somewhere

Is there a website i could use to practice these with worksheets or something , instead of watching the video over and over?

Ohh shit!!! Ozuna was using future tense of estar in his song Del Mar with Sia and Doja Cat. "(Yo Estaré) 'Taré soñando yo."

So basically me voy a + ir (infinitive) tener= I will have means the same thing as.....yo tendré (I will have). Is there any right time or wrong time or it does not matter and based on preference?

Me gustar la forma en que aprendes . Pero quero aprender espanol rapido pero siento que no puedo ! Me puedes qyudar?

🌸🌸🌸🌸

Where is the link to the slides? I don’t see it.

Sorry I couldn’t find the slides and I really need them

So how does the person you talking to know if you mean to say was/were or went????

What tense would you use to say something like "I go to the store every Tuesday" ?

My Spanish teacher is great, but you might be a little better. Thanks 👍🏿

Por que es tan dificil para encontrar un video con ejemplos que usan los verbos conjugados? Busco conversaciones o oraciones que muestran como los estan usados.

Why cant I find someone who explains this in a good way

where are the slides?

Where is the link for the slides?????

where is slideshow?

I am fluent in english and french. Learning a language cannot be learned by concentrating on verb conjugations. Examples in sentences are the best way.

I realized you don't use the 2nd person''s plural thus 'Vosotro'. Any reason?

Where is the link of the slides????????????

Yo voy a ir para el supermercado. I finnin' (fixing) ta go to tha sto' in Southern dialect!

I never knew Spanish was so mathematical
