As a native speaker, I can say that I think we use "esto" more for like situations. For example: "no me gusta nada esto"= "I don't like this (whatever situation) at all". And also to emphasize a verb and not focus so much on the noun. For example: "esto no enciende"= "this is not turning on". In this situation you may be showing whatever object that is not working and the people interacting know what the object is but they are not focusing on the object but on the problem. When the noun is the protagonist, then you may say "éste" or "ésta", for example if you are in a shop and someone asks you which dress do you like, you can respond "éste me gusta", because you are choosing from a group of dresses, if in this situation you answered "esto me gusta", it would sound like a dress is an unknown object to you xD
You're not updated, since 2010 is wrong to use _éste, ése, aquél,_ its feminine and plural forms. They don't use a tilde anymore because they didn't have different meaning. And when the noun is the protagonist you just know because of the context and when speaking one emphasize the word.
This is seriously the best non-native Spanish teachers I have found. I know it’s important to learn from native speakers for many reasons but non-natives teachers can be great too because they’re more familiar with common mistakes you’re likely to make too.
I loved this video! He really understands how English speakers think and the common mistakes that they tend to make while learning Spanish. In this video, the instructor explained the use of proximity very clearly. I personally have always been confused between este and esto. After watching this video, it is now crystal clear to me. Thank you so much!
Hola Andrew, ¡tú enseñanza es fantástica! Envío tus videos a mis estudiantes de español, pues son un excelente complemento. Normalmente decimos: "esta vez es distinto", pero también podriamos decir: " esta vez, la situación, es distinta". Mil gracias por tus vídeos. Soy de Colombia
This is a really good Spanish learning resource. Structured well and doesn't only deal in the technical but motivational aspects of learning a language. Well presented as well.
Thank you so much for this channel! You teach so well. I understand so much easier now. I just finished watching all the videos. Hope to see more soon!
This is so helpful for me! I’m learning from the Duolingo app. I’m a senior so a little hard remembering new things. I liked and subbed because of this video.
Este vídeo excelente me ayuda a repasar y enfocar bien las diferencias entre: este, esta, esto. Esto me facilita a mejorar la exactitud de mi español y por supuesto, esto me gustaría. Muchas gracias Andrew.😀 Voy a cuidar más vocalizar los finales de estas palabras.
As a few others have said, this should have many more views than it has at the moment.. I have looked at 3 other videos, but this is the clearest for learners as you have not tried to overload it with extra fluff. P.S. I like the little excerpt of dialogue from programmes/adverts. 👍 It is good to hear the words at "Spanish-speed".... I had to play the "pero esta vez es distanta" clip about 5 times on 0.5 speed 😉
FINALLY someone has clearly explained "esto". Every other "teacher" I've encountered online has either ignored it or made it even more incomprehensible. It may be an NBD, but that, too, is important to know. Mils gracias from a 20-plus-year ESL veteran.
So far you are the greatest teacher I've ever encountered, your video editing skills is excellent.. you should receive a special reward. Keep doing what you love to do. God bless you Sir.
I speak French and often use French rules to help me in Spanish. This sometimes helps, but at other times hurts since the rules may be different. In French, when you are referring to two things, one feminine, the other masculine, you would use a masculine adjective or pronoun because the rule is "le masculin l'emporte" (the masculine carries it). So, my question: if you're referring to two things in Spanish, one feminine and the other masculine, would you use the plural masculine estes to refer to both, or to both singular esta and este since it's one of each or to the plural neutral estos? I hope my question makes sense to you. I enjoy your videos and find them very helpful in my Spanish studies. Thanks in advance for an answer.
I've watched this one again after explaining to someone else how esto works just to make sure I was right. Then I sent this video to them. Great video! All your videos have excellent explanations from an English speaker's point if view.
I would never have guessed that you are a rock climber. You seem so mild and calm. Rock climbing takes a lot of guts. It's something for rugged adventurers who take risks. Thank you for this este, esta, and esto lesson. It is a great presentation with good examples.
Excellent explanation of the ‘schwa’ sound. I wasn’t aware of this term but knew I was messing up the Spanish pronunciations somehow. I will be more mindful from now on. Also if a Spanish-speaker speaks fast, I find it hard to hear the ‘e’/‘a’/ (& sometimes ‘o’) endings of words - I really have to train my ear to hear them.
esta es un gran video. ... wait a minute. I better rewind and watch it again. All joking aside. You are a great teacher and this is a new favorite channel for me. Thank you for all you do.
I jus want to help with something c:, 8:25 when you said "Quiero vivir en una isla tropical" and the answer was "Quiero esto también" That may not sound so good in Spanish, cause it's like in English I want to live in a tropical island. I want *that* too. And esto is for this, so you don't say I want this too. Is better to say Quiero eso también. Hope it's useful :))
Yeah, its always a big deal when English speakers make mistakes. Everyone else can come here completely butchering words and we have to be understanding.
Very interesting and well presented. This video will certainly make it clearer in the future when we have to choose which one to use Do you have a similar video for the ese esa eso?
Really helped me to understand why pronouncing the ending vowels is so difficult for me in Italian & Spanish. Thanks. It's great to be an English native speaker for other reasons, but the habits we have with the schwa sound make it tough for speaking Italian and Spanish since they emphasize ending vowels so much
@@realfastspanish Good explanation. Short and informative. Direct to the points and so we'll constructed. Thank you for your time and effort. Keep it up
Could someone say in that 'buffet' example: "Quiero esto, esta, esta y este. Por favor. ¡Oh! ¡Y esto también!" When choosing form that mix of items? Thanks for these videos. From Canada's capital city.
I like how you said "NDB's" instead of "NBD's" a few times in the video (like at 2:25), because that itself is an example of an NBD, because I understood what you meant 😉

Thanks for the kind words!! 😊

Youre never gonna learn from a native. They dont want you to learn.
This was very helpful, especially the discussion of the schwa sound. Thank you for the obvious time and effort you put into this presentation.
Glad you enjoyed it! 😊

As a native speaker I find it fascinating to make sense of my language through the eyes of non-native speakers.
Yeah, and non natives actually want to help us understand better... native videos always seem like theyre trying to make it unattainable.
