Just how powerful can one little pronoun be in Spanish? Watch this video and I'll show you!

Mini Course Series: • Spanish With Paul Mini...
Hello everyone, this is Paul.
I'm very happy to be back with you again for another Spanish lesson!
This time around we're looking at just how powerful reflexive pronouns can be in Spanish. In fact, we're going to look at just one of them... "me"
You'll see how it's used with some rather exotic verbs in Spanish and even how it has the power to completely change the meaning of a verb entirely. Truth is, reflexive pronouns are everywhere in Spanish so it's essential you feel comfortable using them from very early on.
Give the video a thumbs up if it helped you and don't forget to leave a comment. I'm always interested to find out how you did in the lesson.
See you next time!
Paul
P.S - My FULL 50 HOUR COURSE is now available! Unlike these short mini-courses, it'll take you all the way into full conversational fluency in Spanish and you'll also get 1-1 access to me to help you through it. Simply register to download the course book for this lesson and you'll get all the details.

@SpanishWithPaul 7 жыл бұрын

Hi Jason, yes Spanish is full of these kinds of negative expressions... no hay nada would literally mean "there isn't nothing"

@DarkManzPK 7 жыл бұрын

For latin languages "No hay nada" can´t be litteraly translated to "there isn't nothing" but instead "There is nothing" or " There has nothing"... it's just a tiny bit diferent.. But the way that Paul teaches is 100% correct aswell.

@carlosd.a.9257 7 жыл бұрын

Jason Clay We use double negation as normal language. Even in old times in Spain, we were using double negation as normal. Hay nada, for us, is weird. Aswell you find weird when someone says: - There is not nothing. Eng and Spa are opposite-minded in this question. That is all. I think, from some point of view, there is a double negation when Eng people say: - I can't deny how good it was. Why not to say... just... "How good it was!". In Spanish we can do aswell "I can't deny".
