The main course is really good. I knew NO Spanish. Now I’m communicating with natives. The main course is totally worth it. It’s a lot for the price. Way better than Rosetta Stone of any of the other ones I’ve tried. He explains things so well I completely understand it in the lessons. The pace is exactly what I needed.
Hello Paul, I just wanted to share a Thanksgiving experience I had... I've been working your main course for months now, studying every night, and working hard. Today, for Thanksgiving, I went to a friend of a friend's house. I had no idea that they spoke mostly Spanish, and very little English. At this point, I'm working through level 7, so my Spanish is pretty good, but not quite fluent yet. I would say that I understood more than 85% of what was being said, and it's all because of you and your course. When I left, I thanked them in Spanish, using por, and they were so warm and accepting of me. The people there were from Mexico, so I will try and celebrate Thanksgiving with Mexicans again. I've learned that learning a new language isn't just about the words, It's much deeper than that. I'm so grateful that I found you and your course, and I am inspired to work even harder to achieve fluency. For those that haven't purchased his course, I am here to tell you that you definitely won't be sorry if you take the plunge.
Hi Paul, although, because of your amazing course, I am far ahead of your Monday lessons, I still come back to them. no matter how simple, we forget sometimes the easy things. thank you so much. Debbie Goldfarb
Muchas Gracias! I really, really appreciate your well structured/sequenced lesson plans! The slower pace provides a thinking time for learners to process information to respond and practise. The repetition of vocabulary also helps me memorize and feel successful at this. Muy bien.
please make some more Monday clases they are the best you tube lessons by miles. i have clicked to get to your full course but nothing comes up. thanks for everything so far...i love the lessons and still have alot to learn

I bought the full course. His modal learning method is amazing. Combining him with regular Spanish listening and it all comes together super quick
Thanks for this lesson Paul. I hope one day you can also do even a short clip on some word differences between Iberian Spanish & Mexican Spanish. Muchas Gracias
Hi Paul, All your lessons are exceptional and I have been learning with you now for about 1 year. I always look forward to Mondays when i can open up your latest lesson. Thank you
My Spanish verb book states that apurarse means to fret, to grieve, to worry. apresurarse. Means to hurry , to rush, to hasten! Can you clarify please?
This lesson makes me think of the Spanish proverb "Vísteme despacio, que estoy de prisa." "Dress me slowly, for I'm in a hurry." It's actually the Spanish equivalent of "Haste makes waste." :-)
That makes sense. A lot of spanish words can mean multiple things due to context. A lot of the time it makes sense. Like your example a reunion is a place people meet.
We use reunión for gatherings with family and friends. E.g. voy a ir a una reunión familiar o reunión con amigos. Junta is for meetings. Voy a ir a una junta en la escuela. Or Hoy hay junta en la escuela. Así es en Mexico, espero te sirva. Saludos!
I think the "tener prisa" is used more to mean "to be in a hurry" My friends asked me ¿tiene prisa? when they wanted to know if I had time to do something with them. So I took it to mean, Are you in a hurry? rather than to "hurry up""
«Voy tarde» es equivalente a decir «voy retrasado, pero ya voy en camino y no tardo en llegar». Mientras que, «llego tarde», es una afirmación de que llegarás tarde porque quizás estás ocupada, te salió un imprevisto, tienes otra que hacer. Esto último no lleva incluido un movimiento en el momento de la oración.
Speaking of reflexive verbs, I find the expression "te lo dije" or "se lo dijiste" and other variations. Do you have a lesson that addresses this? I may be confusing reflexive verbs with indirect/direct object pronouns. Thanks.
"Te lo dije" is "I told it to you" or "I told you." Dije is the past tense (preterite) of decir and means "I said" or "I told." "Se lo dijiste" means "You said/told it to him/her" or "You told him." Dijiste is the tu preterite form of decir. "Lo" means "it." "Te lo" means "to you" and "se lo" is to him, her or usted form of decir. Since "le" is not allowed in Spanish, the le gets changed to "se." Lo and la are direct objects that mean "him" and "her." Le is an indirect object that means "to him" or "to her" or "to you" in the formal second person singular. "Se" is also used for reflexive verbs like apurarse.
Hunta has a very negative connotation in North America. Is this the word that is used to describe meetings in all Spanish-speaking countries? South America and Spain as well as Mexico?
@@lubagustafsson5945 yo me bano (can't do the til) on my Anglo Saxon PC, is correct but the ver apurarse is quite reflexive and you must always use apurarme, apurarse, apurarnos, apurarse )(all the personal pronouns conjugations)

Muchas gracias paul
This lesson makes me think of the Spanish proverb "Vísteme despacio, que estoy de prisa." "Dress me slowly, for I'm in a hurry." It's actually the Spanish equivalent of "Haste makes waste." :-)
Thanks Paul! I think you make the best Spanish lessons on RUclips!

Thanks paul i always waching and listening to your lesson! 👏

l like you so much, you make me understand more ech day
Wow! Thanks, Paul.
Perfect lesson... Thank you!!
Aquí en SMA donde vivo, escucho diario por cada los días. Wouldn't that be more natural?
Reflexive verbos, where we can put me,te,se,nos,os before or the end of the verbos
Excellent, Thanks
I've never heard junta used for a meeting. I thought that the Spanish word for meeting was reunion?
That makes sense. A lot of spanish words can mean multiple things due to context. A lot of the time it makes sense. Like your example a reunion is a place people meet.
We use reunión for gatherings with family and friends. E.g. voy a ir a una reunión familiar o reunión con amigos. Junta is for meetings. Voy a ir a una junta en la escuela. Or Hoy hay junta en la escuela. Así es en Mexico, espero te sirva. Saludos!
شكرا درس ساعدني كثيرا . Muchas gracias
IS NOT PERSIAN TRANSLATION IS ARABIC LANGUAGE THOSE ARE Very different like (Spanish language and Portuense language) Thank You 🙏
Thank you for the video. Is apurar very Latin American? I've always used tengo prisa etc
I think the "tener prisa" is used more to mean "to be in a hurry" My friends asked me ¿tiene prisa? when they wanted to know if I had time to do something with them. So I took it to mean, Are you in a hurry? rather than to "hurry up""
Muy bueno.
Muchas gracias Paul, pero por que dice " voy tarde" en vez de " llego tarde"?
«Voy tarde» es equivalente a decir «voy retrasado, pero ya voy en camino y no tardo en llegar». Mientras que, «llego tarde», es una afirmación de que llegarás tarde porque quizás estás ocupada, te salió un imprevisto, tienes otra que hacer.

Awesome as always thx

Thank. You.
voy a apurarme porque no tengo mucho tiempo y no quiero llegar tarde para la cit hoy
Apurarme and yo me apuro what street difference. This right or wrong
Hunta has a very negative connotation in North America. Is this the word that is used to describe meetings in all Spanish-speaking countries? South America and Spain as well as Mexico?
Can you explain why you think “hunts” has a negative connotation? By the way “junta” is probably the word you want, given that hunta” doesn’t exist.
I thought the word junta is board, and meeting is reunion??
Perfect!
gracias
I've read that correct form is "me apuro", not "apurarme"
Can somebody explain me please?
Yo me apuro.
Tengo que apurarme.
E.g Si me apuro termino pronto! Tengo que apurarme para ir a la escuela.. both are correct! Me apuro y apurarme. Saludos!
Perdon Apurate! Porque no tenemos mucho tiempo ahora y vamos a llegar tarde otra vez. Me da coraje cuan tengo que experar para todos en cada dia.
I am confuse,what about yo me baño, yo apurarme
Yo me apuro, tú te apuras, el se apura/ voy a apurarme/ tengo que apurarme
@@lubagustafsson5945 yo me bano (can't do the til) on my Anglo Saxon PC, is correct but the ver apurarse is quite reflexive and you must always use apurarme, apurarse, apurarnos, apurarse )(all the personal pronouns conjugations)
Porque..shouldn’t the emphasis be on the last syllable?
nice
Geweldig debeste site dank u
PORque? With the accent on the first syllable? hmmm
how bout me apuro instead of apurarme
Depeche-toi! Sans accents?
Oui sans accents! 😊
🙏🙏🙏
debria apurarme ahora porque no quiero llegar tarde para la cita
Pero eso no es lo que Speedy Gonzales me enseñó.
Gracias
