Guys let's switch the language. You are trying to learn Spanish and I'm trying to learn English. Haha!! Thank you so much for choosing this beautiful and romantic language!! Best success!!
@@Jesus__1800 Hahahah. You would never manage to get a good Spanish accent, to be honest. But some native spanish-speakers actually do get a very good English accent.
I'm a Filipino and learning Spanish is fun for some reason. It's a bit familiar already because of the loaned words we have but also challenging. Duolingo is certainly making it fun.
Hi, I'm Latina and if you have difficulties with Spanish, we also have difficulties with English, especially to say the words well, because for us it is not easy.
Yes its true, about 40% to 60% of our of the words we're using (except from english) came from spanish words, thats why we have the same vowel as well as some pronouciation of the letters😊
I agree with you... but You actually say “Puelto Jico”... I mean... your rolled R sound is not so stressed and almost sounds like a Spanish J sound... Btw... ambos hablamos español y te comento en inglés... 😂🤷🏻♂️
Super teacher! I speak 3 languages and try learning Spanish by myself. Your English has a very clear american accent, which is cute, and your Spanish (as far as I can tell) is crystal clear. Thanks for this video, everything you presented is simple and useful, and I mean EVERYTHING! ¡Buena suerte!
OMG I can't believe how true is this, for you guys who speak english as a first language is difficult to pronounce consonants like "r" but is the same for us (spanish speakers), some sounds are difficult. The most beautiful thing about languages is to learn, I do it every day with my bae (who doesn't speak spanish). My name is Renata, just imagine how difficult is for him to pronounce it haha.
Not only in French. In Portuguese, accents change the vowel sounds. We have 13 vowel sounds in Portuguese: 5 closed vowels, 2 open vowels, 5 nasal vowels and schwa sound as in English.
For Filipinos like me, it is hard to grasp how LL (the double L) has come to be pronounced the ways native Spanish speakers do now. We can definitely do the modern pronunciation, but it will definitely annoy us. Lol. We've always pronounced it as /ly/, exactly like Portuguese LH and Italian GLI. They say our pronunciation is archaic.
Jonathan Estrada it is archaic, tho. But that's not a bad thing, I think it's pretty cute and historically interesting. Filipinos pronounce LL like Sephardi Jews in Ladino.
But for words like cebolla(s) and caballo, we pronounced them like y that's why we have sibuyas and kabayo, and not sibulyas and kabalyo. I just find it weird why we pronounce it like ly in several words (e.g. Kalye/Calle, etc.)
I'm Filipino and i speak chavacano as well. I am sooo confused by the LL... It just feels 'different' when I try to pronounce it like J or Y. I GET SO CONFUSED 😭 Nakakastress talaga
I hate that I was never taught or encouraged to speak my native language. When I try to talk in spanish I sound like an idiot. This video is very helpful
I took Spanish clsss back in the university as it is part of our curriculum. I hardly use it, but know some basic conversational lines. Anyway, recently some customers of mine (i am a call centre agent) tells me they like my accent. I do not know how i sound so i asked. They said i sound kinda like french or latin. If i listen to both, what i see similar is the somewhat nasal sound. Also, i have this air sound everytme i end a sentence.
I always said that if you never learned the rolled R sound, it is impossible. After about 5 years of INCREDIBLE frustration, i can now make the sound correctly . And yet I still find it almost impossible to incorporate into speech because of the anxiety of wondering if it will com out right - which makes my tongue not relaxed or dry and then I can’t do it . I have spent countless hours and hours - it took months of making sounds like a baby would before I could even get the air to make my tongue vibrate at all. And it practically required that I be yelling! So I gave up after that because I decided it was impossible to say in a word - and combined with other sounds before and after. A couple years later after my Spanish was much better I decided to try again out of sheer determination. And it was a long road. Singing along to songs in order to practice helped me a ton. But my tongue literally didn’t have the right muscle strength. So, while instructions on how to make the rolled R are nice and all - I think that for many people you need to be aware that it’s a long road ahead, filled with tears and frustration, and wanting to give up. It would be like saying “here is how you do 50 push-ups : “ and then you do 50 push-ups - to someone with no upper body strength... Just saying, don’t underestimate the difficulty of that sound - there is a LOT going on with it and everything has to be just right with the air flow, tongue position and level of stiffness/ relaxation .. ayyyyyyy it’s the bane of my Spanish-speaking existence !!
mexicans are the best So helpful! It was hard at first, but I got it! Flipped R’s are like D’s, to make it easier I have have a tip, listen to a mexican person wile sleeping, and maybe you can get a little bit better. Like meditation kind of. Ü is like “We”
@KIL unless you're trying to replicate the Spain Spanish then that is a different story. Most Filipinos who speak Spanish have the accent of Mexican Spanish.
Hello, aspiring actor here. I've been casted in my first ever serious play. No more primary school christmas musicals. I want to do him justice with a Spanish accent to make him stand out and establish that he's not your run-of-the-mill Charming. (We were encouraged to make the characters our own so I took it and ran).
I have been using Rosetta Stone for about a month. I do enjoy learning the names of different things. However, they don't explain how to use pronouns and things of that nature. I sort of guess as I go along. You have taught me many valuable lessons in such a short time (30 min). And I am sure they will help me to excel in my learning of this beautiful language. Gracias maestra!
In Polish we have 6 vowels, A E I O U Y. Spanish Ñ is Ń in Poland. Polish H and CH are similar, H is like a silent breathing (like in the English word "holy"), and Polish CH is like Spanish J - throat a little more closed. However Spanish CH sound like Polish CZ. We say Czekolada. We don't have soft volwels like Russian has, (Я Е И Ё Ю, in cyrillic, which sound like, trying to write it in English: Ya, Yeh, Yeeh, Yoh, Yuh) For me, living in Central-Eastern Europe, I'm thinking of learning German, French, Russian, or Romanian. :)
Thank you so much, I have a test coming up and I need to memorise a full paragraph about my holiday, I also plan on talking Spanish for gcse, thank you 👏
I hate this and it’s embarrassing to say but I’m Spanish and a black person and the school I go to private school and there’s like a ton of Hispanic people there a few white and Black people too and so people think I don’t look Hispanic and don’t think I talk Spanish but when I learn for Spanish I’ll show them one day 😼
I thought Spanish is so difficult to understand but there a lot of things similar to Filipino languages.. the vowels and consonants are the same.. sometimes there are words that i read but dont understabd but if you put it in simple way it just sounds like Filipino words.. hahaha.. i have to learn more of them.. Hi im from PH 🇵🇭
Si ustedes quieren hablar español con un acento claro, bonito y que les permita ser entendidos por cualquier persona, orienten su aprendizaje al dialecto colombiano, especialmente el del interior. No es recomendable el acento de los actores y actrices de telenovelas ya que es un acento falso y actuado como el de las peliculas, más bien escuchen la radio donde el habla es natural.
John Bradford - A tip: practice saying PERRO (dog) and GUITARRA (guitar) several times, u can also write them in the translator and listen to the voice to repeat! Once your mouth gets used to it, it’ll come out involuntarily
you know it ain't that difficult when your native language is Urdu all the R's are words alphabets in Urdu we call R Ray like the Rolled R sound with E in spanish like RE thats R in urdu and the and the flipped R in spanish is also a letter in Urdu like flipped R from spanish and then E from spanish too yeah RE with the flipped R that makes RE so it was easy for me cz we have pronunciation like spanish you can check it out if you want
i have noticed the spanish e can sometimes sound different . Like the e in bueno and the e in bien- Sometimes sounds like the english "A ".... but sometimes more like "eh"
My Visayan language is a schwa sounding and has very strong R's... The reason why it isn't hard for us to learn Spanish. Plus our language already has 40% Spanish into it
My country, Philippines, were colonized by the Spaniards way back in 1521. Because of that I can say that there are words that are familiar to me. Tho, pronunciation have a little difference.
I subbed just so I can see your lovely self again. Hola! Thanks for your lesson. I do speak some Spanish but I've gotten a little rusty from not speaking it for such a long time.
DopeManOn MVP Hard for me too. Try holding your head back. Look at the ceiling. Rest the tip of the tongue on the palette just behind the teeth, not forcefully. Now play with the airflow. That'll get you started. Gradually lower your head.
Thanks for your helpful video but there is one unsolved problem that I have and that is the pronunciation of s ! I mean when I listen to people speaking in Spanish with "spanish" accent they pronounce the s letter somehow different as if th in english but not exactly I don't know but I can't ignore this that s is pronounced in a particular way cause I really care about accents.
Since Puerto Rico was predominantly Portuguese in the mid 1500’s, their Spanish is a mixture between Portuguese and Spaniard. In Puerto Rico, the R is usually replaced by the letter L and/or G depending on the word and the Z’s or S’s are sometimes usually dropped. The G sound is almost as if you were imitating a strong, but short gargle sound going up and out your mouth. Similar to the way a native french would pronoun an R. “Ggr” Having this clear, here are some examples: Puerto Rico - PueLto Gico Arroz (rice) - Aggo’ (replace the R for G and drop the z) Carro (car) - Caggo Perro (dog) - Peggo
I clicked on this video because I'm a native speaker with terrible allergies and I have a horrible time with rolled "r"s because in order to breed I almost have to leave my tongue at the roof of my mouth for the entire sentence. Any tips or tricks? My accent used to be a lot better but pollen got in the way LOL
Guys let's switch the language. You are trying to learn Spanish and I'm trying to learn English. Haha!! Thank you so much for choosing this beautiful and romantic language!! Best success!!
Bahahaha I’m also trying to learn English through Spanish
The rolled r is definitely the hardest thing about Spanish.
No lo es.
@@Neseku ovio que no lo es duh
Idk, it isn't that important to sound like a native speaker.
I mean we are already happy that more people are trying to learn the language.
KMO 325 it’s hard for me to roll the r when I’m talking in Spanish and I’m MEXICAN
for Russians it’s so easy :)
What do you find the most difficult about the Spanish accent..??
Me: The Spanish accent..!!. :-/
It's easy tbh
@@Jesus__1800 Hahahah.
You would never manage to get a good Spanish accent, to be honest.
But some native spanish-speakers actually do get a very good English accent.
Nothing. One of the easiest accent..
It is easy if you keep on listening and practicing
Try listening “Sammy Perez” from “XHDrbz” program and you’ll see that Spanish accent is easy to understand compared to SAMMY...

This was really helpful. Still have problems with the rolling R😭
Brah the RR is giving me hell...lol...i had to come here and see how it's done
For me it's Soo easy 😂
It's easy man i can speak spanish becuase is my native language
Its errrre
Same and I’m actually mexican
her: rolling your r’s is very hard
me (when i was 4) for the first time: *rolls r’s like a champ*
I used to be able to in like preschool for some reason but now I can't and I'm dying inside
Well,actually most of the kids can't pronounce r properly until they are 5-6 years old. You are a real champ.
we speak all the R's in Urdu which is my native language so it wasn't hard for me
I'm Filipino from The Visayas region from the Philippines, and surprisingly most of these exist in my language. How similar and interesting... 💯👌
When you speak spanish fluent but your watching this

Hahah
Philippines and Spain have the same vowel
¿De verdad?

Yes its true, about 40% to 60% of our of the words we're using (except from english) came from spanish words, thats why we have the same vowel as well as some pronouciation of the letters😊
indonesia too
I think my tongue is having a stroke with the “rr”
Tia Enriquez ha...ha...ha...
I just can't make that noise
Meepter a trick I learned is just say the r multiple times, if you keep practicing your tongue gets used to it and starts being able to do it faster
Why do I find it easy
Sama
1:18 never EVER say “puelto lico” no one does that we, usually say “Puelto Rico”
I agree with you... but You actually say “Puelto Jico”...
I mean... your rolled R sound is not so stressed and almost sounds like a Spanish J sound...
Btw... ambos hablamos español y te comento en inglés... 😂🤷🏻♂️

Thank you for explanations.
Ok I think I did the right thing learning Spanish
Muchas gracias por el vídeo me gusta muchísimo gracias de Australia 🇦🇺
Wow this is amazing and i have trouble when it come to the roll RR, but for ñ im good at this, pretty good

I'm here because I wanted to know how english speakers learned spanish, I'm learning English haha
I like you, you could be the reason im going back to learning el idioma 💅🏻
Isn't it called "la" idiom"a"?Well,if it isn't an exception like el día ofc.
I recently knew I was part Spanish HAHHAHAH then I'm trying to learn it right now.
Who ever thought that the “rr” sound is really hard for non Spanish speakers
Great video! Very helpful
This is an EXCELLENT video. Thank you very much.
I`m native spanish speaker. then talk with me and practice as much as you want :)... un abrazo a todos
hey lol
I sound like a weed whacker trying to roll my r’s.
I just realized I'm using a middle Mexico accent. I'm kind of singing my words. Interesting.
I find the rolled R so much more difficult when it's at the end of the word versus the beginning or following a constant sound.
me studying Spanish and picking which accent to use haha I like the accent from the center. It sounds friendly jaja
En la explicación de las vocales, ha debido colocar mayúsculas y minúsculas.
Por ejemplo, A ,a para entender la palabra "Mamá"
If you are filipino This is easy
this makes you sound native?? i already say this perfectly nice video though, i liked and subscribed
Thank you!

As a Filipino, we can easily pronounce words with the Spanish accent.
So ur telling me people didn’t start rolling R’s when they were small..
yes
In Philippines the words are like this some are 😀
I speak spanish fluently but still have trouble with the RR
