By far the most instructive and straightfoward youtube channel about spanish language I found so far. Congratulations dude!

Hi! The reflexive form doesn't imply something was stolen! It's more about the direction of the movement. For instance: "Jimmy llevó la pelota al parque", it means Jimmy arrived to the park with a balloon, and we could play with it. "Jimmy se llevó la pelota al parque" means, he took the balloon away from us, to the park, and now we don't have access to it. Of course, context is everything!

A few more uses of llevar: To have or include (an ingredient) Example: A mi madre le gusta todo lo que lleva chocolate. (My mother likes anything with chocolate in it.) To drive (a vehicle) Llevó el coche a Madrid. To direct, run or lead (an organization or business) Ingrid lleva la tienda de artesanía. (Ingrid runs the artists' store.) To charge (money) El revendedor me llevó mucho dinero por los boletos. In reflexive form, it can be used to receive or win (something): Se llevó el premio Nobel. She won the Nobel Prize.

Ya hablo español, así que quisiera decirle, gracias por habiendo ayudado, usted me ha ayudado muchísimo con mi español! Solo he estado estudiando por un año 😂

I LOVE this video. I've become very interested in llevar and its many meaning. I knew a few of these, but as usual, you have enriched my knowledge. I especially enjoy the part about the relationship between caer/llevar-insightful. It really helped me "feel" the language. Gracias, Jordan.

You tricked me. I didn't think you'd point out the difference between caerse and llevarse in relationships of various levels of intimacy. Good job, dude.

I remember sitting in Spanish class (MANY years ago) while the teacher just seemed to waffle on for hours in presumably perfect Spanish, breaking occasionally to reluctantly spit out a few instructions in broken English. I'm pretty sure I didn't learn one solitary word of Spanish. I remember thinking at the time "why is our Spanish teacher Spanish?". Wouldn't it make MUCH more sense to have an English Spanish teacher who could teach us to the learn Spanish the way that they learned it? Spanish people don't learn to speak Spanish the same way I would learn to speak Spanish, right? After finding your excellent videos...I FINALLY feel vindicated.

Could you make a video of how and when to use ”a”, ”de” and ”que”?

Im so glad you make these videos. Nobody explains it better!

i’ve also seen llevar be used as contain, like ‘la bebida lleva alcohol’, i don’t know if this is correct but i thought i’d see what you think

One of my favorite forms of LLEVAR: Para llevar - for takeout food. You will see restaurants advertise this in their windows: Para llevar (they have food available for take-away).

Love how deeply freudean it is of the English language to make it so that we must be led to good because following an inner drive is bad

wow, your audio is awesome. what microphone do you use?

I can see the logic in the rare case where llevar can mean to have more than. Consider the sentence “I have 4 years on you” (meaning I am four years older than you) “to have four years on you” seems to warrant the use of llevar because it is similar to the phrase to carry or to wear

¡Me gustan tus videos! Me caen bien

Whoa....I need to sit down for a bit now. Esto es alucinante.

can you do a similar vid for llegar?

Wonderful.

I'm from South America Llevar means to take /to spend Traer means to bring I've seen several videos where some people claim llevar is used for clothes too but personally I don't know anyone who uses llevar in that context. He is wearing a black hat = Él está usando un sombrero negro. For some reason we use "usar" "to use"

Here's the problem I'm having learning Spanish as a third language. I've been speaking German off and on for about 35 years. Of course that language also has its idioms and weird concepts just like the llevar examples here and I still know them, but now I don't remember that they're weird. I just say them without thinking about them. How is that a problem? I keep saying these German idioms in Spanish! My brain is having trouble which non-English expressions belong to which language. Before I say something in Spanish I have to stop and think, "Is that a German thing?" before I say it. I hope my brain will sort this out in a few months.

can you please make video about how to say at spanish borrow and lends please

Doing the lords work

Interesante! Creo que la edad es igual , como tengo ventiocho Años I have 28 years. En ingles decimos I am ...Years young or old Interesting that español says carry ot hace years.

Lol I just learned about me caes bien the other day when some dude texted me "me caiste muy bien" and I could vaguely tell it meant he liked me but I was very confused whether he meant to say he fell in love with me or if he just like likes me

Uses of llegar please

What happens when translate wrong in Spanish? I know u can’t translate word for word like in English,but when listening to this video, I always thought that llevar meant to carry but now there’s more meaning than that! But what about llevar to arrive? Throughly confusito

Jimmy if you’re reading this I want my damn red shirt back

She has an amazing voice! Btw Your lessons are awesome!

Hola!

And almost as bad as it’s evil cousin llegar which can sometimes mean the same thing or completely different set of things

In English we sometimes “carry debt”. Is the word llevar used this way in Spanish too?

Very cute.

One thing that really confues me is when in Spanish they take an infinitive form of a verb That's not reflective and put it with a reflective pronoun, the reason this bothers me so much is because my teacher taught me that reflective pronoun's NEVER go with unrelective verbs. Like for example: In the movie Avengers: Infinity War, there is a part where a certain character is being wiped from existence and he's says "Senior Stark no me quiero a ir" SO in English it would literally be "Mr. Stark I don't want myself to go" But in the the movie he literally said "Mr. Stark I don't want to go"... So why add the "me" if you could've/should've just used no quiero a ir?!?! Maybe it was just a translation mistake??

Jimmy and Timmy steal well

Vengo a este canal para practicar mi listening de inglés

Yo aprendí eso llevar es Siempre to wear.. no to carry

Like I kiss you, cracked me up

got way weird at 10:57

he had hat shirt on 4 years ago

Is your voice computerized?

i’m confused don’t you use he has ha hemos han for have

"R" rated use of "llevar" reflexively, "me lleva el diablo" it is used a lot for cursing where i live, i'll let you guess what it means.

Another way to use is when saying is walking their dog "ella lleva un perro"

the way i see it, Jimmy le lleva 4 anos a su hermana = J has 4 years on his sister; like sayin i have 5 miles on you (head start)...right?

Don't forget about llevar puesto. Which is a good word combo for wearing. Ella se lleva puesto un sombrero azul. She is wearing a blue hat. Llevar-take/carry + Puesto which is the participal of Poner-to put. Another example: ¿Hijo mio, por qué tu te llevas puesto esa camiseta tan fea?

When are you going to give us a Gringo's perspective on the subjunctive?

Don't sing honey 😱
