Explanations of each answer: A1 (beginner) 1. A. “Yo soy María.” 1st person singular. (I am María.) 2. C. “¿Cómo te llamas?” (What’s your name?) The literal translation is “How are you called?” 3. D. “Yo tampoco.” (Me neither.) “También” is for positive sentences. Here, it is a negative one, so we use “tampoco.” And as “tampoco” is negative, we can’t add “no” before. You can also say “Yo tampoco voy” (I am not going either.) 4. C. En el centro de Sevilla hay un parque muy grande. (In the center of Sevilla there is a very big park.) Parque is masculine singular, “el parque,” so it goes with “un.” 5. A. “En mi tiempo libre suelo escuchar música.” (In my free time I usually listen to music.) Escuchar = to listen. A2 (elementary) 6. C, “conmigo.” (With me.) Voy al centro comercial, ¿vienes conmigo? (I’m going to the shopping center, are you coming with me?) 7. C. “He tenido.” He dormido mal, esta noche he tenido una pesadilla. (I slept badly, last night I had a nightmare.) He dormido - he tenido. Past perfect, because it is something specific that happened and ended in the past. Another valid option would have been “tuve,” past simple, but as it is not in the answer box, it is “he tenido.” 8. B, “está.” Mi hermana está muy nerviosa porque mañana se casa. (My sister is very nervous because she is getting married tomorrow.) This is a temporary state, so it goes with the verb “estar.” 9. B, “ningún.” Mi madre no tiene ningún libro de matemáticas. (My mother doesn't have any math books.) When it works as an article in front of a noun, the masculine form of “ninguno” is “ningún.” "Algún" is used to express "some" or "any" in affirmative sentences. "Ningún" is used to express "no" or "none" in negative sentences. 10. A, “mejor.” “Más bueno” or “más bien” is incorrect. The comparative version of bueno is “mejor” as for “better” and “peor” as for “worse.” B1 (lower intermediate) 11. D, cuando llegamos a la estación, el autobús ya había salido. Lo vimos alejarse. (When we arrived at the station, the bus had already left. We saw it go away.) Cuando+pretérito perfecto simple, pretérito pluscuamperfecto. 12. B, llueva (it rains). Me voy antes de que llueva (I’m leaving before it rains). Subjunctive mode, presente del subjuntivo. 13. A. Vecinos (Neighbors). Mis vecinos siempre se quejan porque mi perro ladra mucho. (My neighbors always complain because my dog barks a lot.) 14. B. Ojalá aprobemos el examen de español. (I hope we pass the Spanish exam.) Presente del subjuntivo. Ojalá goes with the subjunctive. 15. C. Vamos a intentar hacerlo bien, aunque parece muy difícil (Let’s try to do it well, even though it seems very difficult.) Aunque = even though. B2 (upper intermediate) 16. A. Está demostrado que los acusados cometieron el delito. (It is proven that the accused committed the crime.) Cometieron, 3rd person plural, tercera persona del plural del pretérito perfecto simple, past simple. 17. C. Nos veremos a las 3, ya que no puedes a las 2. (We’ll meet at 3, since you can’t at 2.) This sentence is indicative, the first part uses the future, because it refers to the future, and the second one uses the present, presente de indicativo. 18. B, “sino,” in one word. No es antipático, sino tímido. (He is not unfriendly, but shy.) It is confusing because in English you use “but,” which is usually translated as “pero.” But not in this case. “Sino” written as one word means “but rather.” If written as two separate words, it means “if _ don’t.” “If you don’t / if it doesn’t…” 19. B, el chico del que te hablé se llama Fran. (The boy I told you about is called Fran.) Hablar de = to talk about. …del que te hablé = …I told you about 20. D, hubiéramos conocido. Hace veinte años que estamos casados y parece como si nos hubiéramos conocido ayer. (We have been married for twenty years and it seems as if we had met yesterday.) The verbs “estamos” (to be) and "parecer" (to seem) are in the present tense. “como si” express a hypothetical or contrary-to-fact situation. “nos hubiéramos conocido”: This is a pluperfect subjunctive form. "Nos hubiéramos conocido" translates to "we had met". The pluperfect subjunctive is used here to express a hypothetical situation in the past. C1 (advanced) 21. B. El vecino cuyo hijo es cantante apenas saluda (The neighbor whose son is a singer barely says hi). Cuyo, “whose.” 22. C. Lucho por que nuestra relación salga adelante. (I fight for our relationship to move forward.) Luchar por, “to fight for”. Lucho por ti (I fight for you). If I add another sentence, it starts with que. Lucho por - que nuestra relación salga adelante. 23. A. Para ser de tu edad, parece mucho más viejo. (For a guy your age, he looks a lot older.) This “for” is translated as “para.” Another example with this: Para ser jardinero, no se te dan muy bien las plantas. (For being a gardener, you're not very good with plants.) 24. B. Apetezca. This is the verb “apetecer,” which is kind of “to crave.” Come cuanto te apetezca. (Eat as much as you want.) Come lo que quieras. We use the subjunctive form here. Presente del subjuntivo. 25. C. Es un pelota. Ser un pelota, for men or ser una pelota, for women. Ser un pelota, someone who “hace la pelota,” someone who sucks up to someone, who kisses somebody’s ass. This boy wants her teacher to pass him with good grades. C2 (native level) 26. B, fueres. Allá donde fueres, haz lo que vieres. (Wherever you go, do what you see.) This is an expression that uses the future of the subjunctive mode. It is a tense that we don’t use, but you might hear this expression. Allá donde fueres, haz lo que vieres. (Wherever you go, do what you see.) 27. B. A sí mismo. Le gustó tanto Barcelona que se prometió a sí mismo y a su familia que volverían. (He liked Barcelona so much that he promised himself and his family that they would return.) Prometer a alguien, to promise someone. A mí mismo (to myself), a ti mismo (to yourself), a sí mismo (to himself or herself). 28. D. Contradicho. Ya me has contradicho otra vez. (You've already contradicted me again.) The verb is contradecir, “to contradict.” This has the verb “decir” in it, and it is conjugated as “decir.” Me lo has dicho (You told me.) Me has contradicho (You’ve contradicted me.) 29. C. Abolan. From the verb abolir, “to abolish,” this sentence uses the subjunctive mode, present tense. Vamos a una manifestación porque queremos que abolan las corridas de toros. (We are going to a demonstration because we want bullfighting to be abolished.) 30. B. Habría terminado. Laura me dijo que probablemente ya habría terminado todo cuando yo volviera de mis vacaciones. (Laura told me that it would probably be all finished by the time I got back from my vacation./ Laura told me that she would have probably finished it all by the time I got back from my vacation.) This is a conditional tense in Spanish. Condicional compuesto de indicativo.

I took your test. I have spoken Mexican Spanish since as a child. I grew up in Texas in the United States. I missed #26, and #28. So, I don't feel too bad. For me language changes and how we say things (in English or Spanish ) changes. I enjoyed your video. Keep putting these great videos out. I stumbled upon yours just surfing the You Tube looking for something easy to share with my students. Oh, yeah- Soy maestra.

Esta mujer es bastante alegre y tierna ❤

Llevo estudiando español 27 años y aún así he fallado 3 preguntas lol. Buen test ❤😂

I love your channel so much!! Thank you!

Yo hablo español, justo ayer di un examen de inglés para medir mi nivel, y la verdad si me pareció muy díficil :( ahora me dio curiosidad de ver si también le pasaba lo mismo a la gente que habla inglés que quiere medir su español 😅

Muchas gracias Lucía!🎉🎉🎉

Correct me if I'm wrong but #7 says "esta noche" as last night but that means "tonight". Which misleads us from the answer you were expecting. I had to double back to make sure you hadn't written "esa" noche for "that night" since the answer was past tense.

Hola Lucía, me gusta tu Channel y encanta tu sonrisa y energía. Gracias! (A2 🙋)

nice video, like your others, great production values. Your subscriber count will grow, keep at it. I am learning "lentamente" but still making progress

I am Portuguese and have Spanish family but haven’t talked to them in over 9 years so I don’t use Spanish a lot. I failed 5 questions overall but they were mostly near the beginning!😅

Hola Lucía, muy Bien. Gracias

Gracias 🌹🌷🌺

Me encanta su manera de hablar, maestra.

you reinforced the issue i already knew i had. Its hard for me to learn each level one at a time because of my attention span, as a result i know how to say some really advanced sentences in spanish, but there are some basic sentences that i tend to struggle with. A few people in the comments said they got the contradicho answer incorrect, i got that right, as ive been studying "haber", i got quite a few of the advanced answers correct, it was those first like 10 questions that i struggled with and got a few wrong. this is because as im watching tv shows/movies if i see grammar/vocabulary that i dont know i look it up and i study, for me there was never a "level" to begin with, i started with what interested me. but you did make me realize that its mandatory that i take the time to fill in the gap. 🖤🌻🖤🌻 sidenote: im so proud i got the "cuyos" answer correct, i learned it from a show i watched in spanish called "merlina", (miercoles en inglés") the line is "dirigidas por personas cuyos suenos murieron desde mucho/años), I LOVE THAT SHOW 😁🖤🌻🖤🌻

This was fun! I got one wrong in the A2 level and two wrong in B1. So, I know where my level is right now. And I am happy that I am beyond A1. Thank you for this video, Lucia!

So, without knowing Spanish but knowing Italian and grammar I have in Spanish level A1))) Grammar practically identical to Italian.

En mi tiempo libre yo suelo tocar música. Tengo una concertina, una guitarra, y un banjo. I never heard of such a meaning of "pelota" or the other choices of that question.

Hola! MUCHAS gracias! Estoy estudiando español desde 2 años. Me encanta el idioma de español. Estoy en A2.

Good challenge-I did well!!!

A1 and A2, 100 percent corrdct. I got half of B1 wrong but grated in still in the beginning of that level right now. Im hoping to get to C1 by December. Im just glad i have my cuban friends to practice with. They are trying to get me to speak faster. 🥴😁

I almost got an A2. Great test though! Thanks for the video!

this could be a little out of topic, but i would love to see your take on chilean spanish, as a chilean myself, it is always fun to see people from other countries try to wrap their minds around all our nonsense XD, specially given that even some people from other spanish speaking countries can have trouble with chilean spanish XD Saludos y abrazos desde chile

Me watching this being dominican: yes.

C2! Lived in Sevilla 30 years ago.

Very nice video!

i did well-excellent vidio!!!

I had 2 mistakes in B1, that's probably my level. I tried C2 for fun though and I had all correct, no guesses. I'm far from native level though haha

question #5 in A1,,,,, the answer could also be leer.... I happen to read music all the time so I know how to play it

I missed 2 in level B2 but only missed one in c2.

Missed two up to C1 and only got 2 on C2. Back to the drawing board; lol

I got one wrong at each level until the C levels, when I started getting a lot wrong. (However, I got one on each of the B levels correct in the nick of time.(

❤ simply put it i suck 😭 i only know a few words in Spanish wishing I can learn more

Got a couple of the a2 wrong but I’ll stick to I’m A2 /pushing b right now

bien presentado

Currently, my level is A1, I am a beginner and I will surely improve

Hola y muchas gracias por este "test" tan chévere, me encantó!! Aunque diría mi nivel de Espanol apenes, no sé algo entre B1-B2 , mi soprendí por todo que bueno he hecho en nivel C2. Sólo tengo una pregunta, en cuánto a pregunta #17 , ( Y por cierto no soy profe de ningún idioma.. lol) solo algo que noté en la traducción en inglés... No sería " as if we HAD met yesterday" en lugar de " as if we met yesterday... due to the verb Haber/ in this case "hubiéramos" being used? ..Just a geeky question...lol.. Thanks ! :) Saludos desde Isla Vancouver, Canada

Hola. Soy nacido en los Estados Unidos a padres hispanos. Mi padre es de Aguascalientes, México y mi madre es de Moca, Puerto Rico. Solo fallé tres preguntas. Fallé la de la pelota, pero pienso es porque no conocía la expresión de “hacer la pelota.” Pero ahora ya la conozco! Nosotros aquí usamos una expresión similar, pero es “hacer la barba.” Fallé la de hubiéramos y habíamos. Creo que aún me confunde un poco el uso correcto del subjuntivo. Sonaría muy mal decir habíamos en este caso? También fallé la pregunta de “por” ó “para” ser… pero estoy pensando que quizás es cosa de dialecto. Estoy seguro que he escuchado personas decir “para ser X, no es muy Y.” Será que todos nosotros hablamos mal el Español? Me gustaría saber que piensa usted. La pregunta de “donde fueres…” la adiviné pero solo porque he escuchado expresiones ó frases similares de un libro que se llama “Bravuconadas de los Españoles.” Más no sabía que el tenso es el subjuntivo futuro y si cuando escucho el verbo conjugado de esa manera se me hacen nudos los sesos! Pero ahora voy a tratar de componer unas frases usando aquella conjugación. Muchas gracias. Me gustaría aprender más del idioma de mis ancestros. Por desgracia, pienso yo que la calidad de Español que hablamos aquí en Chicago no es muy buena y me encantaría poder mejorar/ampliar mi conocimiento del idioma para poder hablarlo como debe de ser! Tengo muchas preguntas. Habrá forma de enviárselas? Quizás le pueden dar más ideas para videos en el futuro. Un placer, gracias!

He hablado español desde hace 7 años, y mi nivel es B1.

I got most answers right from A1-C1, but got a few wrong at every level.... The only logical conclusion is that I'm all levels simultaneously! 😂😏

¡Me gustó su video! Pues, respondí mal a dos preguntas...la 25 y la 26. Nunca había escuchado la frase "es un pelota". ¿Se dice en américa latina? Con respecto a la 26, ¡parece que necesito repasar el futuro subjuntivo! Soy angloparlante y maestro de inglés en una escuela comunitaria que sirve a la comunidad latina. Hace once años me casé con una nicargüense y aprendí más el primer año con ella que había aprendido de 4 años de clases de español en la universidad ja ja ja. Entonces, si respondí mal a una pregunta de C1 y una de C2...pues, yo sé. ¡Sigo practicando!

Results: A1: 4/5 A2: 3/5 B1: 3/5 B2: 0/5 Necessito practicar más 😂

#22. I don't understand why it's not "Lucho para que nuestra relación salga adelante" in this case...

after a 126 day steak on Duolingo i reached a2

A2 shoukdn't it be anoche and not esta noche if youre trying to say last night (past tense)??

You know you're at a high level when she says "Con yo" and you laugh. 😉

I need to learn more I still can’t roll my r😢

I did better than I expected but not as well as I'd like to.

Soy argentina, desde mi nacimiento hasta la actualidad uso el español cotidianamente, y no pude pasarme el c2

ni yo supe responder las de c2 jajajaj, pensaba que era 'vayas'

Mi idioma natal es español y aun asi quise ver un teste de aver que tanto se xd

Definitivamente tengo un C2 de español. Nah, de locos.

I missed one in C1 and two in C2. I guess I'm not as expert as I thought I was.

I hope we pass the spanish exam - Espero que pasemos el examen de español?

Fue un buena prueba, He cometado errores en todos los niveles jaja, creo que es porque estoy un poco cansado, pero mi resultados son: A1 4/5 A2 4/5 B1 4/5 B2 3/5 C1 1/5 C2 2/5

Kinda wish it was Latin American Spanish. I like the concept but didn’t understand all the words and wasn’t sure if it’s because I’m just learning.

A1 - 5/5 A2 - 5/5 B1 - 4/5 B2 - 3/5 C1 -2/5 C2 - 2/5

I didn't understand some of the grammatical questions and I never heard of un pelota as an asskisser. I have been studying Spanish and taught technical classes (aviation) in the Spanish language for about 45 + years. I have a degree in Spanish and have taught students from Colombia, Mexico and most of the other countries in South America. I spent my Junior Year abroad in Madrid with NYU in 1972-1973 school year.

Como hablante nativa puedo decir que la pregunta 10 es muy confusa, parece mal formulada. "El bar" y "tu casa" son dos sustantivos y al estar juntos no tienen sentido; incluso en ingles me confunde "Bar Tu Casa is better"; a no ser que"Bar Tu Casa" sea un lugar 🤔 La pregunta 25 también esta difícil... Nunca habia oído esa expresión, aunque supongo que es algo muy regional.

Hello everyone... For those who failed on 2 or 3 questions...please don't worry about it... I'm a native and I have failed on 2 questions so I guess anyone could fail

B1

Fuaaaa, no Manches soy tremendo!!!

A1, I got 1

B1 i guess 😂 almost b 2

Question #8 got me confused. I understood "casa" as meaning "house".

I just answer first 3 what do I do

My level is about where I expected it to be B2. Question 26 totally threw me off, I have never even seen those verbs conjugations before? Fueres and vieres? Are they only found in certain places like vos in Argentina? Edit: just read the answers. Future subjunctive. No wonder I had never seen those conjugations 😅

I feel like this video made me more confused lol

Doesn't esta noche = tonight and anoche = last night?

Well that was depressing. I have been learning Spanish for over a year and a half and I couldn't even do the B1 questions. I think I might be too old for language learning. I'm carrying on though.

My results showed me that I'm not even at A1 yet😅

I am A2

I thought “Esta noche” means tonight and Anoche is last night…?

Hey are you free next week will be in benidorm,next week lol.Only joking,Happy new year from Philip and Gràinne.Will have to get back on with the spanish,come in handy next week in Benidorm.

He dormido mal, anoche tuve una pesadilla. También correcto, no?

The use of "salga" in "Lucho por que nuestra relación salga adelante" really confused me.

Please, Please lady I need your help to understand a point. I always see people speaking spanish and pronouncing "v" differently. Some people pronounce it as "b" and the others pronounce it as "v". I am very confused pls for god's sake help me❤❤

Tus ojos son muy bonitas! did I write that correctly ?

Am I the only one who is lost with the A2 nightmare example? I thought esta noche was tonight and anoche was tonight. Also, even if it was last night, why "he tendio"? Couldn't you just say "Anoche tuve una pesadilla"

C2 🗿

I just learned that im A0

A0 😞

Why is yo también incorrect?

Te recomiendo ver este vídeo (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qLajgtx7uMiWcpc.html) en que se dice que los niveles del Marco Europeo de Referencia no es un estándar. Han sido diseñados no ser un estándar. Les faltan precisión. Además los estudiantes de idiomas no necesitan las mismas habilidades en todas las partes del lenguaje.

😢

Dijiste “un” pelota …. 🤔🤔

La verdad que el español de España es horrible 😂 Soy latino nativo Y ese español es más académico Also I can speak English

May I thank you very much for your videos, but your answers desapear too quickly.

Blah blah blah
