      I get where you are coming from. Lol. He does that. I am a member of the Qroo Spanish Crew. Especially if you are a beginner, I highly recommend giving it a try (or watching his RUclips playlists first). He even says that you can join for a month and binge watch if you like. That makes deciding if you like his teaching method or not and to continue being a member (or not) easy. "You've got this right!" Lol

    'He ido a la tienda' translates better into British Eng: 'I've been to the store' i.e. I've been to the store today (even though I arrived home two hours ago) but an Am speaker would probably say 'I went to the store'.

    I have a trick for distinguishing "tener" from "haber." If I have something in my hand, I'm holding a "tangible" object ... so I use "tengo." If I have done something, there's nothing tangible, so I don't use "tengo." "He hecho algo."

    It's used a lot more in Spain than pretérito perfecto simple.
    Also, the 'recently' thing can be misleading because it is triggered by 'This', as in esta mañana, esta semana, este año, etc. So recently could mean 10 months ago or 10 minutes ago.

    Interestingly enough, Old English used to have the verb Habban. German has the verb Haben, and of course we know Bs and Vs in Spanish are the exact same thing. It makes me wonder how many other languages might have an equivalent to this verb.

      Yeah I watched a video from Spain recently where they were interviewing ppl on the streets about their mornings & what they did that morning. They almost all used "Haber + verb". Like, "he tomado café"... Which is interesting because the English translation "I have drunk coffe" wouldn't be used in this way

      @@msmendes214 I disagree. In English it's common to say "I've had coffee" "I've been to the shops" "I've read a book" etc for things done that day.

    • @msmendes214
      @msmendes214 Месяц назад

      @@spider2666 In the US, the vast majority of people wouldn't say "I have read a book/I have had coffe" for what they were doing in the morning. It just sounds so odd. "I read a book. I had coffee". Perhaps in the UK or other English speaking countries, but certainly it's not universal.

    • @msmendes214
      @msmendes214 Месяц назад

      I asked chatgpt & here it is: Speakers of British English are more likely to use the present perfect in situations where American English speakers would prefer the simple past.
      For example:
      UK: "I have read my book this morning."
      US: "I read my book this morning."
      This difference arises because British English often uses the present perfect to emphasize actions that are relevant to the present or have occurred in a time frame that is not yet complete (like "this morning," if the morning is still ongoing). In contrast, American English more freely uses the simple past, even when the time frame might still be relevant to the present.

      If you had specified US English then I wouldn't have said anything. But you made it sound like this was not grammatically possible in English, when it clearly is. What various regions do is just a tendency or preference, which can change over time, not rules-based.

    Awesome. Very useful. But I’m also thinking there is more to Haber? What is the time one uses “haberse”

    • @QrooSpanish
      @QrooSpanish  Месяц назад +1

      When you see haberse, the se typically belongs to another verb being used reflexively in the perfect tense or as part of a pronominal verb.
      For example, in reflexive verbs with haberse, the se belongs to the reflexive verb, which means the action is done by and to the subject. "Él parece haberse lavado las manos" means "He seems to have washed his hands." The reflexive verb here is lavarse. Another example is "Después de haberse despertado, ella se preparó un café," which translates to "After having woken up, she made herself a coffee." The reflexive verb here is despertarse, describing waking oneself.
      Pronominal verbs with haberse are verbs that require a reflexive pronoun (se) as part of their meaning, even if they aren’t truly reflexive. For instance, "Parece haberse dado cuenta del problema" means "It seems he/she has realized the problem." Here, darse cuenta is the pronominal expression for "to realize." Similarly, "Él no podía haberse olvidado de ti" translates to "He couldn’t have forgotten about you," where olvidarse is the pronominal verb for "to forget."
      Sometimes se appears with haberse because it belongs to an idiomatic verb that requires a reflexive pronoun. For example, "Ella parece haberse quedado sin dinero" means "She seems to have run out of money," where quedarse means "to run out" or "to stay." Another example is "Después de haberse ido, nadie supo dónde estaba," which translates to "After having left, no one knew where he/she was." Here, irse is a pronominal verb for "to leave."

      Hi David. Yes, I include information about Spain Spanish. I highlight differences between Latin American and Spain Spanish as I move through the lessons. What you are describing happens to all of us. That improves with more exposure to the language. Having conversations with an AI tutor can help too. The only thing that would help you with that in the Qroo Spanish Crew would be the live sessions we have twice a month. They are conducted by a native speaker in Spanish and he encourages participation.
