Spring Spanish - Learn Spanish with Chunks

Күн бұрын

“Llevar” had to become a part of our verb video series because though sometimes it can be as simple as translating it as “to carry” in English, there are many other instances in which this won’t work. “Llevar”, in Spanish, is quite more versatile, it has different extra uses in different countries and it can be super useful to know how to use properly since it comes up on a daily basis for native speakers. Click “play” and find out what you need to know about this verb so you can start using it right now!

My new rule: automatic follow for any native speaking Spanish teacher who can flawlessly use the word "amicable" which is beyond most of us Americans LOL. All joking aside, I really do appreciate this channel. Everyone does a great job and the conversational teaching style, focus on chunks, etc is definitely helping me, given the stage I'm at in learning. I still find traditional classroom methods to be really important for me sometimes, specifically with verb conjugation. I live and die by conjugation tables for whatever reason, can't seem to get the patterns to stick in my head without them. I know this channel doesn't really believe in them but I was very happy to see the Llevar table pop up here for a minute, lol. But of course I was also the language dork who loved diagramming sentences in English studies when I was a kid, so don't put too much thought into my opinions, my classmates hated me for it lol, it always screwed up the grading curve for them. To be fair, they always got their revenge on the math tests haha. Seriously though, I think this illustrates the difference between "classroom' versus "conversational" style language learning. Charts, tables, and writing everything out are still important for me, but understanding the conversational style soon becomes much more important. I'm at the point now where I can understand much more of the differences between my Colombian wife vs the Mexicans and Central Americans who much more common here in California, and who were probably the only Spanish speakers I was ever around until I fell in love a couple of years ago and started my crash course in las idiomas Colombianas 😁. Gracias y bendiciones, Maura, mi maestra genial!

Me gusta a Margarito/Princeso. Mi gato se llama Rhapsody, pero a veces yo se llamo Meowner. Mi padre usó esto nombre para todos los gatos. I must compliment you on your excellent English. I particularly noted your correct use of the word "amicable". This may come somewhat naturally to a native Spanish speaker because of cognates amigable and amistoso, but it's a little bit rare in English, and might be considered rather advanced among native English speakers.

On the first Venezuelan slang example..."¡Lleva! Eso te pasa no hacerme caso." The English translation you give is "Take it!" I've never heard anyone ever say that in such a scenario, The most common translation in English that I can think of is simply an exclamatory "There!" or a rhetorical question "You see (what happens)?", or both together, "There! You see?" In a different situation where the person speaking hits or hurts someone or is the cause of someone falling or having an accident, then a common expression to the victim is the rhetorical command "Take that!"

@MauraSpringSpanish Жыл бұрын

Thanks Calvin, that's always helpful! We do try to aim for literal, instead of semantic, translations so you know what's been said in Spanish, not so much in English. "That that" could have worked too, though, so thanks for adding that! =)=)=)

@DataCenter_ Жыл бұрын

Because "llevarla" Is when you are talking about a female thing or person. And "llevarlo" Is when you are talking about a male thing or person. Exemple: Vas a llevar a tu madre contigo? Sí, voy a llevarla. Vas a llevar la computadora de tu hermano? Sí, debo LLEVARLA porque mi computadora se arruinó ayer y la necesito para mi trabajo. Debes llevar a tu hermano a su clase de inglés. Sí, ya sé que debo LLEVARLO a su clase.

Llevar is fine. What's not fine is u just said... no me cabe en la cartera... I don't fit in my wallet 😂. Obviously there's a reason but that's pretty confusing and is that the tip of the iceberg?

@glennhuish3806 Жыл бұрын

Think indirect pronoun here- "no me cabe" does not mean "I don't fit", it means "it doesn't fit me". Think like you're trying on a dress: same conjugation, 3rd person. For me, the indirect pronoun is one of the most difficult things to wrap my head around in learning Spanish. I remember very clearly the first time I tried to figure this out, around the phrase "me gusta". Very common phrase, and my first exposure to this structure, probably like most other people. But trying to figure out why I was saying me gusta, rather than yo gusto, was the first time this whole idea clicked for me. Por ejemplo, for me gusta or for me encanta, these don't literally translate to English as "I like it" and "I love it", but rather as "it pleases me", and "it enchants me". 3p conjugation, indirect pronoun. Compare this to saying I love you- "te amo" uses the indirect pronoun, but now the 1st person conjugation. YOU are the object of MY feelings, while with the others I am the object of the generation of feelings by something... I think it's fascinating and beautiful, but a little daunting for sure. I love languages, but definitely finding a passion in learning spanish.

Part of the lingo of this channel, watch a few more videos and you'll see. Not like it's a defined or oddly-translated term of some sort, think of it as an odd but easily recognized term they use to label common phrases, instead of calling them "common phrases". Part of the brand they build. Marketing 101
