No kidding. I never had the courage to start a conversation in Spanish until I watched this. It took literally 1 day of practicing these phrases and my local taco shop was grateful I was atleast trying
Excellent! The presenter presents the information clearly. He is articulate and thorough. I have benefited greatly. He is a very good teacher. I love his videos.
These videos are perfect! Bite size and so we’ll explained. Been doing Duolingo for 8 months but feel your videos pull it all together for me. So good to understand how it works. Thanks!
❤ At last, a language teacher who understands language! We need language skills to express our intentions, desires, emotions etc. Simple short structures to allow us to agree, invite, express likes, dislikes, ask for or give nformation. Talk about everday life, our feelings, describe common situations family, home work etc. The shorter the sentence, the better! Salud y gracias.
I like how you teach spanish ! My mother language is French,I speak English and German already ! I am confident learning Spanish rapidely,by watching and listening your skilled videos ! I plan to do a rolling list of compouds phrases in an excel File. Thanks a lot

You explain in a way they evokes total confidence in the learner that they will understand what you are saying once you complete the explanation, which, in turn, makes the learner voracious for your teaching. In my opinion, it is a divine gift that very few people are blessed with. Thanks for sharing it.
New sub here. I love your videos and your explanations. I would love to take a live class with you, as I’m trying to increase my Spanish fluently for work and casual conversations. Please let me know if you offer such lessons.
great information - great explanation - but what i really want after that , is some listen and repeat practice of the different conjugations - (i) want to eat / (we) want to eat / (they) want to eat - etc etc - yes it would be better if i did this myself and went and put it into immediate meaningful practice ,but i don't have a spanish speaking environ handy - and the next best thing is to get some articulatory organ muscle memory of the syntax - while i'm doing the morning cleanup housework etc. - that's what i'm doing now and noticing this is what i want and dont have
But "comer" means "to eat". So "I have to eat something" feels like it should be "Tengo comer algo" not "Tengo que comer algo". Ugh!! This one in particular is a road block for me. But I'll get it. Great video btw. I discovered some of the ideas in this video on my own already, and noticed the links between Spanish and English conjugations. This added to it tremendously. And i agree, it's a very important concept to grasp. Thanks so much for the further enlightenment. Appreciate your videos!!!!
I hope you get more subscribers. You are producing high quality content and it's amazing. Don't give up yourll hit 1 million eventually. The journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step.
Hi, Andrew! It's funny to see that students make the same kind of mistakes in Portuguese. When attempting to say sentences like "I have to buy", some students say "tenho *para* comprar". [the correct one is "tenho *que* comprar"] And that's a great tip, using compound sentences to avoid conjugations. That's especially helpful with irregular verbs --- in both Spanish and Portuguese :-) Thanks!

Hi profe. I'm looking for "compounded" words and phrases to assist me with my learning and interpreting of Espanol. I was hoping to find these types of compounded words in this video but did not e.g. Hace (he does) + tiempo (time/weather) = long time or lo + que = what or ama de casa. Currently I am reading/interpreting them literally and find that there are a few commonly used words that take on different meanings when placed next to specific words. I understand that translation should not be done literally but I'm still a beginner and trying to make sense of the words. If this type of content is not your area of focus, no worries, I'll have to make my own list :)
I took five years of Spanish while I was in college which means I no longer have to think about grammar (or even English - that was a strange day) while speaking Spanish. But that means I have lost some of my ability to explain certain things. As you said, I remember if the verb is unconjugated in Spanish, then put a "to" in front of it in English. But is "speak" still a verb in "I can speak," or would it be more accurate to say that the verb has been nominalized?
Great video, just found your channel today and you have a great way of explaining things. One question though, (i am a beginner) I was taught that the word "comer" means "to eat". So to me, tengo comer means-I have to eat. To say tengo que comer, to me looks like-I have to to eat. Can you explain?
Although we translate infinitives into english as 'To XXX', in Spanish compound phrase usage whether an infinitive form reads as having the word 'to' in it depends upon the conjugated verb that comes before it. Some conjugated verbs need another word after them to get the sense of 'To XXX' and some don't. That word (if needed) is often 'que' or 'a'. So you have: Necesito comer - I need to eat Quiero comer - I want to eat but Tengo que comer - I have to eat Voy a comer - I'm going to eat Which conjugated forms need a word after and which don't is just something you need to learn as you go along. It's that first, conjugated, verb that determines whether another word is needed, not the second, infinitive form.
I think it's important to teach people that the unconjugated verb means TO ... like TO eat...comer or TO want... querer it almost always work unless you are getting into tengo que+infinitive.
Go to Andalusia specifically Sevilla, Cordoba, and Granada. Within Granada, go to the Alhambra, the inner place of the Naseri, not just the outer citadel. Pretend that you are an awestruck, barbaric, Visigoth ogling the splendors of superior civilization. Note the Kufic writing on the wall which transliterates to Allah hu akbar!
02:33 compound phrase 03:26 the gap between the two verbs 03:44 in Spanish 'Quiero' is the conjugated verb and 'Hablar' is the infinitive verb 04:59 four must know verbs: Quiero, Puedo, Necesito, Tengo queue 05:40 swap out conjugated verb forms 6:20 verb 'Querer' in Spanish 07:15 he/she form 07:29 compound phrases
Gracias!! ¿Puedes darnos algunos otro verbos, o otros typos de verbos, que podemos usar en la primero posición? Por ejemplo, 'acabar de'. ¿Y podemos usar 'seguir'? Gracias de nuevo!
Hola Robin, yo creo que “me gusta”, “me encanta”, “me molesta”, y “voy a” son otros verbos (o frases verbales) que necesitas saber! Maybe you know them already but they mean: I like, I love, I dislike/hate, I’m goi g to. I always teach these to beginners as chunks because most people together with quiero, tengo, tengo que, puedo, necesito. I find that, when meeting others in Spanish, most like to talk about their likes and dislikes as well as plans. Using “Voy a” is as super effective way to speak in the future. They call it the “near future” but I’d argue that we natIves use it way more than the actual future. In fact, you could probably never use the actual future conjugation, at least in Latin America. You could never use the future conjugation and still people would know what you mean every time, that’s how common it is: Voy a aprender más, voy a ir a la fiesta, voy a ser doctor, voy a llamarte, nunca te voy a amar, algún día voy a ir a Italia. One other verb you want to use in the first position is “Soler” (suelo: I tend to, I usually...). We use it all the time: suelo dormir hasta tarde, suelo leer novelas de misterio, suelo salir con mis amigos. I hope this was helpful.

Wow I really needed this, conjugating verbs my like my biggest hurtle. But this gave me the confidence that I can speak sooner than I think
The same holds true for any other language you pick up. The tears you may shed for the sake of Spanish are easily quadrupled in Russian.
