The whole team is actually really good. thanks

As someone who learned Spanish and is a native English speaker, I struggled with 'me da' at first, because to us, saying "give me" in English is often impolite. I had to overcome the instinctual feeling that I was being rude by saying 'me da.'' I think this is why native English speakers tend to use "puedo tener." To us it feels more polite.

I have a Spanish speaking friend who now lives in California. We were in a restaurant and she "told" the waiter, "give me the vegetable soup". It sounded rude. That's why native English speakers have a hrd time with "me da/das".

I am guilty of using puedo tener for the same reason so I was glad she said it’s not the preferred method and not seen as inconsiderate. It’s hard to make the transition though. I’ll give it a go with adding the por favor and hope for the best.

@KelahCash Жыл бұрын

Yes, I completely agree! I went through the same issue with Korean, lol. Technically, asking for things is saying "Give me..." but the way you conjugate it is what makes it polite. It's so nice once we get past that hump of putting our American minds to the side to embrace a different culture's way of doing & communicating 🥰

One thing I really love on this channel is the way Paulisima and other teachers mix Spanish and English in their lessons, in a very natural way. I was an ESL teacher for many years, to mostly Spanish-speaking students, and I used a similar approach, which worked very well. Btw, I loved the suggestion about using dichos y expresiones, hay muchos y muy buenos! My favorite "dicho" is: Aunque se vista la mona de seda, mona se queda (Even though the monkey is dressed in silk, she is still a monkey). Also I love this one: when someone gives you a compliment, you can say, "Gracias por la flor, luego vengo por la maceta." (Thank you for the flower, I'll be back later for the pot.")

The trick (for all romance languages) is to remove the diphthong from your English vowels. And in reality, *every* vowel in English is a diphthong. For the letter O, remove the W at the end. Don't believe me? Say the letter O slowly in English. You'll see/feel your lips close up in a W. For the Spanish (and French and Italian) O, don't do that. Keep the sound the same. You can say the same thing about the Spanish vowel E, which we think of as an English long A. Except that A in English has a long E or even a Y at the end. Again, say the word "say" slowly - you'll hear the vowel change. The Spanish E is closest to the beginning of the vowel, leaving off that ee/y sound at the end.

My dad took a job in Peru when I was five years old, so I learned Spanish at the same time I was learning English, which was spoken at home. One of the issues I saw with Americans visiting was mixing up the words "su" and "tu", both meaning "your" in English. Su is only appropriate in very close relationships, tu is used otherwise. Su madre (your mother) could get you into a fight, tu madre (your mother) wouldn't be an issue. Familiarity doesn't impact language in English. The other thing that I saw that messed Americans up is when you use the descriptive adjective. In English the descriptive word comes first (The red ball) and in Spanish it is after the noun (La pelota roja). Everything has gender in Spanish and that can be confusing. As one Spanish speaking person commented to me one time, "In English everything is an "it"". I am 70 now and last used Spanish when I was 15, when we returned to the US. I now sound like a Gringo and while I can still read Spanish almost as well as English, my ear has trouble picking up conversations when the Spanish is spoken quickly.

With all due respect, I think Stephan Ledford is confusing something! The opposite of his theory is true: "su" is more polite than "tu". Because let's think logically: "su" refers to "usted" while "tu" refers to "tú". "Usted" is the polite, formal form of "tu". That's why "su" is also formal. "Tu" is informal, i e more direct, and is used when talking to close friends or relatives. The best proof is the saying: "Mi casa es tu casa", which is known to be friendly, not too direct or insulting!

Nice tips, it seems your channel is being pushed by KZfaq now. I used to get more when I was actively working as an EFL teacher. Now, mixing por and para is similar to mixing to and for in the case of native Spanish speakers when wanting to use these prepositions in English. It is mostly a matter of usage than rules. What she is showing is called natural language and it is the way that people speak without making a conscious effort since it's how people usually speak. Even at the expense of grammar. Can it be taught? Of course, but it takes time to absorb so it comes out naturally. Buena suerte!

One of the things I love about Spanish is you know when something is a question and what someone is talking about right away. In English one might say "Look at that blue truck!" or "Check out that fast, round, hot, moving, lame, bouncy" and you could go on and on before ever knowing what they are speaking of. Were as in Spanish you know right away... " El camión.... "the truck" and then you describe it. Sometimes when reading a book in English I don't know if the sentence is a question until the very end. Forget about the who, what, where, when and how because that is not always the case. If it weren't for that seemingly elusive question mark I may have not known at all as if the question were implied or a sentiment were as in Spanish they give you that inverted question mark so that you know it's a question right from the start or perhaps it's the English mark which is inverted ; )

Maybe I should keep my "o" sound short, but when I hear you demonstrate the right and wrong ways, I also hear that you're saying not to make it a diphthong. Thus my native Minnesota/N. Dakota accent works to my advantage, having the purest "o" vowels in the USA. This accent also has (contrary to the stereotype, I think this is even more characteristic) the purest u/oo vowels. "Food" just doesn't sound the same elsewhere.

El problema es que el inglés tiene 12 sonidos vocálicos (por más que escritas solo sean 5) y el español solo tiene 5, y en el 95& de los casos van a sonar igual que en el alfabeto. Los hablantes de inglés tienden a utilizar sus diptongos ei, y ou con las letras "e" y "o" y tienen que practicar justamente eso de acortar sus vocales. Aunque bueno, siendo objetivos, no hay ningún problema con no sonar nativo cuando se aprende un idioma. Con lograr una pronunciación inteligible que se acerque a la de un nativo ya está bien. También es lindo conservar un poquito del acento nativo, porque le da como un cierto condimento al nuevo idioma. Como comer un platillo super conocido con un nuevo sabor. Solo no queremos que ese condimento tape todo el sabor del plato. 😉

Another great lesson! OK fair enough but it goes both ways... you gotta stop saying "laaayern" for 'learn' when it's just short "lern" Don't turn the final 'n' into a Sunday drive and there's a schwa sound for the vowel not a long dipthong. And it's "all the time" not "times"

I've been learning for years and I still have issues saying "¿Me da...?" I just seems rude to me! So I always add, "por favor"! 😂 "¿Me da un tinto, por favor?"

That is the “danger” of translating it directly. It doesn’t have a rude connotation in Spanish. An example in reverse is when greeted with “How are you?” when you are a customer. Non native speakers get hung up on this and often literally assume the person is being rude when it turns out they really don’t want to know how you are (in depth). it is more of a short greeting.

"is it gringooo?" at 1:27 this is a name given by your people so it's your choice, Gringos is what, in Malaga, they call foreigners who have a certain type of accent that prevents them from speaking Castilian easily and naturally; and in Madrid they give the same name, and for the same reason, in particular to the Irish first recorded in 1787.

English-gringo alert at 5:06 lol we would never say "times" plural there 👍

TBF, basically every anglophone says "can I have" when speaking their own language when "may I have" is usually the appropriate phrase for the situation. Also, basically every anglophone answers "Good" to the question "How are you?" despite this being grammatically incorrect.

¿Cuándo cambió el significado de la palabra "gringo"? Cuándo vivía en México a principios de los años sesenta, era una palaba despictiva.
