On this channel I make videos on topics in Spanish language and linguistics. Mostly phonetics and phonology, but also dialectology, sociolinguistics, and historical linguistics. Many of my videos come from questions asked by viewers in the comment section.

I love that clues can be gathered as to how ancient languages were spoken based on common misspellings! A whole field of research made possible by humans making mistakes :D
Indeed. This is a very big part of how we track phonological chage over time.
Been really excited to see this series continue. Great stuff, as always!
Thanks for the support. Glad you liked it.
Love this series as a historical linguistics enthousiast :) Keep it up ❤️
Thank you!
Thank you ! WE can not wait to see the next video in this series
I'm so happy you liked this video.
Early stages of this development resemble more Italian than Spanish.
I love the way you present the information in the video,
Thank you!
Great video.
Thank you!
I agree with your idea of "feeling that something does not belong in a word". Sometimes we say things that sound awkward and we question ourselves and self-correct. Sometimes we just go "meh" I will just keep saying it like that. Soon enough you have kids and your kids get made fun in school for the way the say something, and they have to choose whether to just change or keep the badly spoken word. Ridicule and mockery is a powerful language regulator specially in a language like spanish that has an imperial vigilante in the form the RAE.
He’s not dead!
Yay.
@@tenminutespanish Yo my guy, i reallly appreciate ur work, like a ton! is there a way i can donate to you? I also was wondering if you could give me some advice. I’m half Mexican, my family is from guadalajara, and i don’t sound gringo it’s just there is something a little off that makes me not sound native. Idk what could be wrong. Thanks again and i really appreciate you.
@@PyroPerchlorate Send me an email and we'll talk about both things. tenminutespanish@outlook.com
@@tenminutespanish Ok i sent you an email, I might have sent two on accident mb.
@@tenminutespanishI love your stuff bro!
What fonts do you use for the intro and where could I get them? Thanks.
It may be the Romanus font. But I'm not fully sure.
If you cannot roll the R how do you pronounce 1) R at the beginning of a sentence 2) RR
Do you offer zoom classes in order to improve accent and pronunciation? Also, how does someone contact you?
I currently do not offer classes. I occassionally accept recordings and make videos for people. I haven't done that in a while. My email is tenminutespanish@outlook.com
Ascensor, piscina in these combinations it is hard to ceceo [c] sound. It is normal? Any spanish rules for it?
All of my observations are that Spaniards pronounce both s and theta in words like these.
I’m fascinated by your channel! I’m a native Spanish speaker who has a pretty much native pronunciation after 20 years of learning English. Everything I know about English pronunciation came from years of practice and massive exposure. I’m teaching myself French now, and I realized that if wanted to achieve a native-like pronunciation in a third language within a matter of years (and not decades!) I needed the help of phonetics and phonology. Surprisingly, the more I study English and Spanish phonetics/phonologies (and their relationship), the easier I find it to understand French phonetics and phonology. So thank you for inadvertently helping a French student in their studies! 😂
I had the honor and great pleasure of exchanging with Dan, who turns out to be not only a genius of Spanish and an honorable family man with strong values but, a kind and sharing person. He´s very busy and is on his own course. I am so grateful to use this oportunity to humbly present myself as an avid learner of Spanish, and mildly so, of German as of yesterday. It would be the fulfilment of a life goal to meet a fellow, like myself, in their 30s to 50s who, like me, somehow, whether decades ago like Dan or two years ago like me, discovered Spanish and it absolutely carved new pathways into the destiny of our lives! I am literally looking for an acquaintance who is open to becoming a lifelong brother in Spanish. I´m moving to Spain in 2028. How much I would appreciate someone to share the fascination of living in Europe, of taking on a new identity and becoming someone NEW! So very few of us!!
Can you make a video focusing on the pronunciation of the letter J? Your videos are incredibly helpful!
yay
Most if not all of the old Spanish words or late latin versions are actually modern Portuguese 😮😮😮
I also noticed this although the opposite also It happens in portuguese.
As in:
Madre - mare - mae - mãe
Padre - pare - pae - pai
Calente - caente - quente
Animales - animaes - animais
Luna - Lũa - Lua
Celo - ceo - céu
Dolor - dor
Color - cor
Mançana - maçãa - Maçã
Lana - lãa - lã
Sano - são
Perdonar - perdõar - perdoar
Irmana - irmãa - irmã
What do you think of this specific path to get from Latin /kt/ to Spanish /tʃ/:?
/nok.te/ -> /nox.te/ (lenition) -> /noj.te/ (lenition + assimilation w/alveolar /t/) -> /no.tje/ (metathesis) -> /no.tʃe/ (palatalization + affrication)
/ok.to/ -> /ox.to/ (lenition) -> /oj.to/ (lenition + assimilation w/alveolar /t/) -> /o.tjo/ (metathesis) -> /o.tʃo/ (palatalization + affrication)
Perhaps in this scenario, steps 1 to 3 would be shared between Spanish and Portuguese, with Spanish in this case evolving further in both cases, and Brazilian Portuguese evolving further and similarly, but only in the case of words ending in orthographic 'e'.
Would you know how and why all the verbs in Spanish end in ir, er, ar? Do any other romance languages have that? Does latin? Do any other languages?
Latin had a more complex system that reduced -ar, -er, and -ir in Spanish and Portuguese. In Italian, the Latin system reduced to -are, -ere, and -ire. I'm not sure about the other romance languages
French and italian have similar distributions. Spanish ar verbs are er in French. Spanish ir and er have similar correspondences in French.
French has three verb classes
I: -er
II: -ir
III: -re
IV: irregular verbs (which can end in -er, -ir or -re, of course)
My dude keeps learning
Never stop learning, right? I'll do a couple more videos on Latin to Spanish evolution, then I'll think of a different topic. Maybe some more dialectology. Maybe some more pronunciation. I avoid doing videos on grammar, because I don't want to repeat topics that lots of other people have covered. I love grammar topics, but so many other people have done so much with grammar I think it would be a waste of my time.
@@tenminutespanish Do you have any channel recommendations for improving Spanish grammar? Your teaching style has been the most effective for me by far
@@joeyparrish21 Thank you so much. I'm happy you've gotten something out of my videos. I'm sorry, but I have no recommendations for you. I don't follow any other Spanish channels.
Hey what’s difference between χ and ʁ?
Voicing
