I am learning Spanish as a beginner,and that's one of the best Spanish tutoring channels I have found, especially the bilingual subtitles, looking forward to your more excellent episodes.🎉🎉🎉
Your lessons are so clear and encouraging, I’m thrilled to have found your channel at the very point I need lessons just like this. Your voice, oh I wish I knew how to say in Spanish how lovely it is to listen to and how perfect your audio is - I will learn!
Tell him: Me gusta el sonido de tu voz. Tu voz es muy suave y puedo entender todas las palabras. Me encanta oírte hablar y algún día quiero hablar así. ❤ Tell him: I like the sound of your voice. Your voice is very soft and I can understand all the words. I love to hear you talk and someday I want to talk like that. ❤
I don't often comment on videos but man, I can't express how helpful your content and especially your learning technique is. I've been watching for a few months now but found it quite inconvenient to write the words down in word or similar programs. With the flashcards this technique came to a whole new level for me. Unbelievably effective! Thank you so much for making these videos, I'll stay tuned!
Thank you for your videos! Your pronunciación is really great and when I hear you I can understand so much more than when I hear TV! please continue with your work! 👍
Wow this is exceptional.... and because I love it so much , I can only Increase from it.... Very interesting story....es muy divertido! Muchas Gracias....
Ofreces contribuciones únicas al espacio de la enseñanza del español basadas en tus experiencias personales y bases lingüísticas. A diferencia de otros profesores, evitas las discusiones superficiales sobre temas trillados. Tienes la combinación adecuada de inglés y español. Hablas en español, lo cual ayuda tanto a los principiantes a aprender español como a reforzar el conocimiento de los estudiantes más avanzados. La información en pantalla está en inglés, lo cual es beneficioso no sólo para hablantes nativos de inglés de distintos niveles, sino también para personas que están aprendiendo español y que hablan inglés como segundo idioma. Tanto su edición como tus explicaciones son claras y eficientes. Te mereces todo tu éxito y más. ¡Te deseo lo mejor, hermano! ¡Sigue así! 💪
Your Anki Card method is SO well done and so rich, and it makes your transcription method easier to do. THANKS for your efforts and dedication to our learning.
Me gusta cómo tu voz da vida a los personajes. Recuerdo que me sorprendió que los audiolibros en español sean muy rápidos, porque los audiolibros en polaco son mucho más lentos que hablar en la vida real.
just want to shout out thanks for making these videos. theyre very helpful.i mus admit in part 5 i was hung up on "Carlos conocia el lado oscuro de Gloria.. el lado just keep sounding like helado.jaja
Hi. If I remember correctly I did write a story mostly in the present tense, called "El arroz verde". Or was it "Lágrimas de acero"? You can find them if you order my videos from oldest to newest. The future tense is not used as much as other tenses.
The flashcards make such a difference, thank you for putting in the effort! Will there be an option in the future to also have the English translation in Anki?
Hi! Actually, every single flashcard does have the English translation. Just click on "Traducción" to see the translation. It's hidden by default to encourage you to stay in "Spanish mode".
Thank you for your story, and I totally believe in your method of teaching, because of my own experience. My only suggestion is to make the story a bit shorter so it’s easier and quicker to consume. Maybe it’s my own ADHD, but for me the shorter the content, the easier it is to remember and digest
Really enjoying your courses.In The White Cat.there is one thing i do not understand.At the end of part 2 it says....to buy her old car.Why do you say como para before buy her old car.Thankyou.
Hi. "tan tonto como para" means "as dumb as for" or "dumb enough to". This became split across two lines. You have to consider the full sentence and not just a single line.
No puedo tirar mi R. ¿Alguien puede tener la amabilidad de decirme cómo debo pronunciar una R al principio de una palabra y una RR en el medio? Gracias
Hola Miguel, me gusta mucho tu nuevo video, es destacado! Tu pronunciación es tan perfecto que todo parece muy fácil ;-) Tengo una pregunta. En minuto 17:11 mostras una Anki-opción de hacer click en un botón como si fuera un MP3-reproductor. Qué tengo que hacer para ganar una opción así? Sería muy feliz cuando puedas ayudarme. Muchas gracias!😘
Hola. Tengo una pregunta. Una vez está escribiendo ¨cualquier puede aprender¨ y otra vez, está ¨cualquier persona¨. Persona tiene LA ... la persona. Por eso mi pregunta, porque no es ¨cualquiera puede aprender¨ y ¨cualquiera persona¨ ? Gracias de antemano.
Mi antes entiendo historia : ❤🐈😻😘🎁💐 Me ahora entiendo todos historia: 😭🐈🍧🍨🤬😡😤👿🤪😱😰😰 El metodo transcription is MUYYYYY divertido. Yo aprendo mejor palabras necesitan en mi “daily” life. Puedo usar “todavia”? Jaja Perdon po mi español pero yo tengo que intentar escribiendo para practicar!!! Gracias por historia y este video! ❤❤❤🎉
Excellent Video! I genuinely enjoyed the story - there was some quality humor in here. I have been using my lunch break at work to practice transcription, and it is absolutely the most beneficial exercise for learning a language (I actually had started doing it myself as a quiz of what I was hearing before I found your channel, but now I am all the way in). Personal anecdotes aside - I was able to comprehend >85% of the story from listening, and my transcription was ~90% accurate. I am wondering what level of difficulty you think the story is based on the words used, the speed and cadence of your reading, along with the context clues in the images in the video. Would this be upper beginner to early intermediate? Where would you place this? Additionally, though I'm certain that this will be coming in future content - I have recently started to focus my study on conjugation and my comprehension and listening ability has increased dramatically. I was easily able to pick out words like "hicieron", "podemos", "trajeron", "salió", "olvidó", "ha pasado" and many others, as well as comprehend their tense and pronouns, because of my conjugation practice. I was really excited that this story is told is past tense, both for this practice and for help in distinguishing between preterite and imperfect - which as a native English speaker, I struggle with. I haven't seen many others talk at lengths about the difficulty of conjugation and familiarizing oneself with it, however, I for one don't think that its entirely obvious that words like "tengo" and "tuve" are, in fact, the same verb. Curious to hear your thoughts on this. Thanks again for the great content, I look forward to every video!
Hi! These stories are aimed at intermediate learners. If you were able to have 90% accuracy in the transcription, I'd put you squarely in the intermediate category. You might want to try transcribing materials aimed at native speakers, such as podcasts. Regarding conjugation, I've worked on preterite vs imperfect with some students, but always in the context of stories. Grammar is better studied in context. Also, please remember that not all conjugation of a verb are equally valuable to learn. Some are super uncommon. That's why I created the Spanish Input word list. I also have some color-coded verb conjugation tables and a list of the most common verb forms which I haven't published yet. (Too many WIPs)
@@spanishinput Thank you so much for such a comprehensive answer! It's very helpful. I will take your advice and work on native level material. I'm sure that will be quite a challenge. I certainly agree that I think blind memorization of conjugation isn't going to be very useful for most. In my case, I think it just allowed me to better recognize what verb is being used as well as the tense based on the context of a sentence, but the only verbs/conjugations I have truly learned are the one's I have heard used in context and comprehended. I agree not all verbs are common enough to concern oneself with at this point, and my primary focus remains on listening and input. Your common word list has been very helpful, and I look forward to future materials you put out, such as conjugation tables. i truly believe this is the best channel and content for learning Spanish on RUclips. The only bad thing about your channel is how young it is - I really could listen to you all day. Thank you for your continued help and encouragement.
Hola. ¿Hiciste el ejercicio de transcripción? Solo así puedes estar seguro de que realmente entiendes todo. Cuando haces transcripción empiezas a notar detalles que nunca has notado. Por ejemplo, jamás decimos "por la primera vez", sino solo "la primera vez".
En cuanto a la cuestión de "por primera vez", cabe señalar que lo que se considera correcto o incorrecto en un idioma es a menudo arbitrario, es decir, la regla es la regla a veces porque fue lo que llegó a ser aceptado. Incluso entre lenguas tan similares como las lenguas romances, cosas muy pequeñas que se considerarían "malas" o "impropias" pueden considerarse correctas o incluso preferidas en otras lenguas. 🇬🇧 ENG: I ate sushi for the first time. 🇵🇹 POR: Comi sushi pela primeira vez. 🇪🇸 ESP: Comí sushi por primera vez. 🇦🇩 CAT: Vaig menjar sushi per primera vegada. 🇫🇷 FRA: J'ai mangé des sushis pour la première fois. 🇮🇹 ITA: Ho mangiato sushi per la prima volta. 🇷🇴 RUM: Am mâncat sushi pentru prima dată. Se puede ver aquí en todas las demás lenguas romances, se usa el artículo definido. La excepción es el catalán, lo cual creo que se debe a que casi todos los catalanohablantes también hablan español, cosa que puede influir la sintaxis del catalán. Según mis observaciones, aunque el portugués y el español comparten una mayor relación genética, es frecuente que el español y el catalán compartan traducciones palabra por palabra, probablemente debido a que son parte de la misma unidad política durante cientos de años. Otro ejemplo de algo que está considerado incorrecto en un idioma es decir "ir" + "infinitivo" en italiano para expresar el futuro, donde se considera correcto y se usa en otras lenguas romances: 🇬🇧 ENG: I am going to read a book. 🇵🇹 POR: Eu vou ler um livro. 🇪🇸 ESP: Voy a leer un libro. 🇦🇩 CAT: Vaig a llegir un llibre. 🇫🇷 FRA: Je vais lire un livre. 🇮🇹 ITA: Leggerò un libro. 🇷🇴 RUM: Am de gând să citesc o carte. En italiano, se puede decir "andare" + "a" + "infinitivo", sólo cuando la acción implica movimiento físico, no una idea general de hacer algo en el futuro. "Vado a leggere un libro" implica que el hablante viajará a algún lugar para leer el libro. Todo lo que dije es básicamente una forma prolija de decir que si dices algo mal en español, es posible que sea correcto en otra lengua romance. Bastante interesante, ¿no?
Gracias amigo! A mi me gusta mucho tu Espanol, porque yo entiendo todo. That's because I've asked. And thank you for your videos and your perfect accent
Hi. General Spanish uses a “middle of the road” set of sounds for each of Spanish phonemes. I have learned which sounds are the most common ones or the “middle of the road” ones through the study of phonetics books and spending tons of time analyzing the speech of people from different countries. I’m distilling all of this knowledge into practical phonetics lessons for students, which are available for channel members here: ruclips.net/p/PLNDr0kknnWpaHflmKQn-l74ygZ0Zl77-t As I say in my videos, the goal of the learner is NOT to try to imitate any regional accent. The goal of the learner is to understand and be understood. Trying to imitate a regional accent (Spain, Mexico, Argentina, Colombia) is just adding extra workload to yourself for dubious benefits, and might actually make it more difficult to understand you. I also practice what I preach: I try my best to speak General Spanish in my daily interactions, and no one from my city (Guayaquil) has commented on it. The only ones who notice it are people from other cities or countries, who tell me I don’t sound like other Guayaquileans. I take it as a compliment.
Hola. No. He probado la I.A. y todavía no sirve para mis propósitos. Como explico en la descripción, esta es una historia original del autor británico Saki, y yo la re-escribí por completo.
Hi. It's natural connected speech. Please check my two recent videos about the subject. They explain the rules and provide lots of examples from highly educated speakers and voice professionals.
I think this is a great way to understand Spanish, but man oh man, I cannot type or write as fast as the narrator is talking. I can't type or write as fast as an english speaker can talk normally either, so...... yeah, is it normal to constantly pause and rewind the video like a dozen times to write one sentence lol?
Great way to learn Spanish, no doubt. But I very much dislike the idea of a cat being locked up for the rest of his days. Why not make her travel to China to learn Chinese. It is well known, cats can understand only one language, so learning Chinese makes him forget Spanish. Not my story, as it is.
Hi! The original story is "Tobermory" by Saki. In the original the cat dies in a fight with another cat. I spent days thinking how to end the story without the cat ending up dead, and this is the best I could come up. But I like your idea.

Hi. You're not supposed to type as fast as you hear. You're supposed to pause and rewind hundreds of times.
What level of spanish is this? A2, B2?
Hi! It's for intermediate students in the B1-B2 region.
some of these AI images are quite disturbing lol
Historia cruel y sin sentido😢😢😢
Great way to learn Spanish, no doubt. But I very much dislike the idea of a cat being locked up for the rest of his days.
Why not make her travel to China to learn Chinese. It is well known, cats can understand only one language, so learning Chinese makes him forget Spanish. Not my story, as it is.
Hi! The original story is "Tobermory" by Saki. In the original the cat dies in a fight with another cat. I spent days thinking how to end the story without the cat ending up dead, and this is the best I could come up. But I like your idea.
The option are toooo damn complicated
The AI generated art is creepy as fuck
