    I've been watching you videos lately on, and I find them to be very interesting and practical.
    Your method of teaching is very understandable and easy to assimilate.
    Even though I am a Spanish speaker born and raised in South America, I've been immersed in the English language for at least the last 27 years living in the United States.
    Therefore I've been exposed to the English language for a long time now.
    Learning a new language, is a never ending task, there's a lot to learn every day .
    I understand your approach on teaching, I like it a lot, your pronunciation is excellent, I like that you explain the grammar too!
    Well done Sir.

    Great idea to learn these phrases, although as some have said, caution should be exercised to avoid escalating things or ticking off the wrong people… I try to avoid arguing vehemently with anyone outside my family, but within my family I definitely prefer to fight / argue in Spanish. It seems to lend itself to strongly expressed emotions. One strategy to improve one’s “dramatic fighting” Spanish is definitely to watch Mexican telenovelas.

    In a conversation today, I thought of an idea for a very short video. It’s about “suave” as soft vs “suave” as mild. We were at a health store in Toronto and in discussing the merits of one analgesic cream over another, the salesperson said one was “softer” in English. I realized she meant milder or weaker, then we realized we all spoke Spanish. Even though she grew up in Canada, she defaulted to saying “softer” in English for milder/weaker strength. My brain quickly realized what she meant, but I explained to my Spanish-speaking husband the difference between “suave” as soft and “suave” as mild. I’d never really thought about this before.

    Another useful video which leads to a suggestion for a future video: How do you know when or when not to use "a" in front of an infinitive? For example, I think you wouldn't say "quiero a hablar contigo" but rather "quiero hablar contigo." But for other situations like the one in this video you use the "a" in front of the infinitive. I've sort of been going on gut feeling but am never sure. For example, I believe "el cambio es facil a rastrear" is correct, but should it just be "el cambio es facil rastrear"? Thanks.

    Great videos. After years of learning verb conjugations in school, you are helping me to learn how to have a conversation.
    I have a question, I saw in an earlier video that you prefer to use the tu form for commands and that you would find a nicer way to ask someone, that you address as usted, to do something. However, for many of these phrases, it seems to me that the usted form is more appropriate. For example, "get away from me" or "get your hands off of me" might be said to someone on the street that is harassing or assaulting me. Would you really use the tu form with a stranger who was harassing you on the street? Is it too familiar? If so, maybe you could do a video of these expressions with the tu form and the usted form and explain when it would be appropriate to use the more formal command.

      Do not! Do not use profane speech in Spanish. It Is nearly always Latin. Mexicans do not know what they are saying. Here Is an example go to work and say niger malus caelum. But first translate that into Spanish. Take the word Ass in English it is not Pendejo in Spanish as most will Say. It means something else in Latin. It tells of one of onde of the worst administrative acts in History. Use Smokey thé Bear's rule. Only you can put out forest fires. The problème with Latin is that the embers are still hot a thousand years After the fire has burt out.

    Never use profanity pejorative speech around any one you cannot trust. If you can trust that person chances are you will be circumspect in your speech. Paul is no using pejorative speech here. He is using what the French and Português call Polêmic Speech. When you are in a Spanish speakers home, in his country....he is trying to protect you and teach you. So if he uses the pejorative without antecedente or just reason excuse yourself and leave. I was in such a situation when a Hatian set out to enflame a group of migrants against me. I excuseed myself and walked away without offending anyone. The only thing to be won was the race to my car. I did not wait for the translation:. ruclips.net/video/gCbr_3QRqdY/видео.html

      @shishinonaito Год назад +1

      In Spanish we love culo, so we don't usually replace it with euphemisms. You could say "métetelo por donde te quepa" if you want to avoid saying culo. But you should remember that culo is not considered vulgar or offensive per se, so it's not really necessary to avoid its use. There are euphemisms though, like pompis, pandero or trasero. Culamen is a very expressive way of saying culo, used in phrases like ¡menudo culamen! (What a big booty!). It has two brothers: muslamen (for thighs) and tetamen (for boobs). You can use culo in really offensive phrases though. "Vete a tomar por el culo", for example, is an extremely common phrase that is now considered offensive (homophobic, to be precise).

    • @josedelnegro46
      @josedelnegro46 Год назад

      You can use culo but that is not what you are saying in English. You are saying «que no servi y tu no pueda hacerlo a servir...no pueda tapar el sol con un dado». The sticking part is not what you mean any more then we mean to say kiss my ass when we say kiss my ass. A guy said this one time. Some guy yell at him You @#@###. The guy responded with: I just don't know if I can take too many more of them @#@###. They guy won. The guy who first used the péjorative lost. Paul said these are world one can use in an argument. He did not take it the extra step into a fight. If you use the worst words some guy tells you you can use he will stand there and watch 100 Mexicans beating the hell out of you with a fucking smile on His face. Remember if you go low they are going to go lower!

      I'm Mexican, and ilárgate! Would be more like "¡Get the hell outta here!".It's not that rude, and You can even hear it in songs.
      If you want to sound much more aggressive, you should say "vete a la..." (sorry, I can't write the last word, since it's an utterly bad Word).

    Esto harto, when you're waiting in line patiently, and everyone just walks in front of everyone! Seems to be everywhere in mx, and not just because I'm gringo. My wife is mexican
