      @@mep6302 Let me see if I can help. It's easier than you think. It's clear for English speakers but as Spanish only has EN I can see why it's confusing. On and In are easier to explain are you/the object Inside something or On Top of it. At is more general. You're not saying whether you're In a building or outside if it, only you are there. At the univeristy and In the Univerisity are both correct, the second one is giving more infomration you're also inside a builing too. We tend to only say At the univeristy (or any location) but both are perfectly correct.

      I'm a native spanish speaker and I can hear a clear difference between both examples "this & these" and "beach & bitch", and I can pronounce them with that difference just because I've studied that a lot, but if I could give an advice to those who don't know how to pronounce it themselves, it would be: forget about the five vowel sounds you know in spanish, beacause when you're trying to learn how to pronounce well in english you got to have clear that you are going to make sounds with your tongue that you've never done before, and that's because in english there are like eleven different vowel sounds. Have that in mind :)

      I believe it's hard for us to hear the differences because we don't have that many sounds in Spanish, so we're not used to them.
      I want to make clear that of course this doesn't apply to everyone (obviously), I just think that (↑) may be the main reason for some Spanish native speakers.

    • @anastliliop5819
      @anastliliop5819 4 года назад +5

      Yeah because in English there are long vowel sounds (beat, sheet) and short vowel sounds (bit, shit). In Spanish there is no such thing and that's why Spanish native speakers can't hear the difference (usually)

  • @mcloves2read
    @mcloves2read 5 лет назад +634

    So I'm an American living in Madrid with a Spanish family and Joss's mistakes are super common here. My host parents speak English really well but they both make the exact same mistakes. My host mother has trouble with the "his and her/he and she" thing as well, especially in plural because in Spanish the default is masculine if there is a male that you are talking about mixed with women. My host mother explained to me that the reason they add the "eh" sound to words with "sp", "st", etc, like "eh-stop" is because all Spanish words are broken up by vowels and don't have many words with several consonant sounds back-to-back. And the reason it's harder for Spanish speakers to hear the difference between words like, "this" and "these" is because Spanish only has 5 vowel sounds that their ears are tuned into naturally, and English has many more. (I think it's 20?) The "ih" vs "ee" sound for the letter "I" seems especially difficult for them here. My host father told me it's because they don't know how to even make the sound at all which I didn't understand until my Egyptian friend tried to teach me a few words in Arabic and then it all came together for me, haha. A native english speaker will be tuned into all of our vowel sounds in the same way that, for example, a native Vietnamese speaker would be tuned into the different sounds and levels of sounds their words have because it is naturally a melodic language. Basically, Joss, you aren't alone and you are understood perfectly which is all that really matters. Love your content.

    I love you guys - I'm from America so English is my first language but I LOVE languages. As a child, I was OBSESSED with Spanish (I still am!) and started classes in school when I was ten. I'm not AT ALL fluent but starting to learn it when I was so young definitely gave me an advantage - it feels very comfortable and second nature to me, just like English does (even if I can't speak it fluently lol). I love that you're sharing your own journeys with different languages - it's so impressive how well you both speak English AND German and Spanish! And that you're brave enough to share the mistakes you make - it's really inspiring.

  • @GH-si4wq
    @GH-si4wq 5 лет назад +133

    Spanish is my first language too, and I do hear the difference between "this/these" and "beach/b*tch"
    Basically it's the pronunciation of the vowel. For These and Beach, the sound is of a very clear Spanish "i" while This and B*tch are more relaxed almost mixed with an "e" sound.
    Pronounce an "e" in Spanish and then an "i," notice how your tongue moves in your mouth to make both sounds. Now keeping the shape of the tongue when you pronounce the "e" and the shape of the lips when pronouncing the "i" is kinda how you get the "this" or "b*itch" vowel sound.
    I hope this helps someone haha

    Hey Joss, the reason you mixup "his" and "her" in english is because in Spanish it is just "su" and it doesn't distinguish between the two sexes. However we do in English and it's really important to get it right or you will confuse people who you are talking to (and he and she are also very important to get right for the same reason, but its the same in Spanish (ella y el) and it is just as bad if you mix them up). My ex-girlfriend also had this problem and it often confused me.

      This is a very common mistake among Spanish people. I think we mix "he" and "she" up because in Spanish we can just omit the subject in sentences (that's perfectly correct). It's understood whom one is referring to without saying "he" or "she" all the time. I guess we just say the name of the person once, and then we do not need to remember if it's a man or a woman, that information is already implied. Does this make sense?

  • @ZhangtheGreat
    @ZhangtheGreat 5 лет назад +1

    Explaining Joss' mistakes:
    1) "Can you take me a photo?" is translating the Spanish word order into English. In Spanish, the object pronoun in this case can be directly attached to the end of the infinitive verb (tomarme; literally "take me"). A way to (kind of) be aware of this mistake is to say it the other way in Spanish by moving the object pronoun in front of the conjugated verb ("¿me puedes tomar una fóto?" instead of "¿puedes tomarme una fóto?"), because we know English never says "me can you take a photo?"
    2) Adding an "e" in front of "s" words: Many Spanish words that start with "es" have an English equivalent that drops the "e" (e.g. estúpido/stupid, español/Spanish, especial/special).
    3) "This" vs. "these": Spanish only has five vowel sounds. English has tons more, including long and short vowel sounds, which makes it extremely difficult for Spanish speakers to hear differences between all the vowel sounds. Plus, the short "i" vowel sound (hit, lip, sin) doesn't exist in Spanish, so you're just asking for mistakes.
    4) "Making" vs. "doing": In Spanish, "hacer" covers both verbs. This is a common mistake when we learn a language that has two verbs for something our native languages have only one word for. For example, in English, we only have one word for "to know," but in Spanish, there are two: "saber" (to know information) and "conocer" (to know people or to be really familiar with something). Another common mistake I hear Spanish speakers make is using "waste" instead of "spend" ("I wasted $50 on that"), because in Spanish, both verbs are "gastar."
    5) "Explain me": Spanish commands by attaching the object pronoun to the command form of the verb (e.g. "explícame," "escúchenme," "mírenos"). English commands by separating the verb and pronoun and _sometimes_ (not always) adding words in between (e.g. "explain to me," "listen to me," "watch us"). Confusing? Yes.
    6) "His" vs. "her": This one's easy to explain. Spanish only has four possessive pronouns (not counting their different forms): mi, tu, nos, su. "Su" covers all English third-person possessive pronouns: his, her, and their with no regard to gender. For Spanish speakers, remembering that third-person singular possessive pronouns distinguish between gender in English can be hard.
    7) "People" is singular: In Spanish, "la gente" is singular. Hence why "people" is often treated by Spanish speakers as singular.
    8) "Beach" vs. "bitch": Same reason as #3.
    I hope this helps. I teach language for a living, and I also enjoy studying/learning languages in my free time 🙂

    You guys are the absolute cutest! I'm bilingual in English and Spanish... and I teach English online. I agree that all the mistakes mentioned here are common errors from Spanish speakers, as well for many who speak English as a second or foreign language. Another mistake you didn't mention but MANY EFL/ESL speakers make is using the plural for advice. Similar to "informations", many non native English speakers say "advices". I find it highly annoying but I try to hide it. In any case.... super great video. Love you two!

    ❤The difference between "this" and "these" relies on the pronunciation of the vowels and the final s.
    This: /ðɪs/ the vowel is more relaxed (short), and the "s" is voiceless.
    These: /ðiz/ the vowel is more tense (long), and the "s" is voiced.
    ❤Native speakers of Spanish usually add the "e" in words beginning with "s" because in the Spanish language we do not have consonant clusters (str, sp, st, sp, sm, sch....) at the beginning of words, so in order to make it easy to pronounce we add the "e" as in español, estómago, escapar.
    ❤The difference between "beach" and "bitch" is also the vowel.
    Beach: the vowels are tense (long)
    Bitch: the vowel is relaxed (short).
    Try with (sheet~shit), (meet~meat), (piece~piss)

    That e is called epenthetic e, is the vowel Spanish speakers use to fill the necessities of their language, like the schwa for English speakers /ə/. In Spanish you can't start a word with s + any consonant, that's why in English where it is permitted, we tend to do so.

    People can be singular when it refers to a "nation". It's plural when it translates as "la gente".
    Persons is not necessarily archaic. it's just formal, usually found in written language.
    Anyway, it's very easy to make mistakes, even for people who have a high command of the language, especially when they are exposed to a variety of versions of the same language as spoken by foreigners. Meaning that even if you're a native speaker, if you hang out with people who make some mistakes when they speak, you'll probably pick those up and incorporate them in your everyday speech.

      Letter schwa sometimes sound like a o /fol/
      And double oo = U.
      Habla español creo si es así la onda está en saber pronunciar la letra schwa xd

    I also have an issue with long and short "i" sound. I notice a slight difference but not enough to be able to pin point which the actual difference is LOL
    I guess we don't have this sounds in Spanish so we struggle more with it. It also happen to me with "sh" and "j" and a loooooot of other similar sounding duos. It's annoying and frustrating....

    I haven't learned Spanish so I don't know if there is also a he and she like in English and German, but I struggle with this a lot, especially when I talk fast. Like, I know the difference, but I'm not used to it because in my language (I'm an Estonian) we don't have different genders like that and we also don't change the ending of the word according to the gender that particular word is like it is in Russian and if I remember correctly then in German as well. So that's hard for most foreigners I believe 😌

    The editing of this and these with reggaeton music was awesome. By the way we don't notice that mistake until someone tell us. Learning IPA is super useful
