¡Hola! In this lesson we'll be working on comparisons of inequality. Meaning, we'll compare things that aren't equal. One thing is more of something or less of something than the other. To do that, we'll need the words, más (more), menos (less), que (than), a whole lot of adjectives and drawings of alligators! Enjoy!
Please "Like" this video if it was helpful and leave a comment as you're passing through!
Thanks for watching!

Hola, Sr. Jordan! Soy un gran fan de tus videos, realmente me han ayudado en mi clase de español. Soy un estudiante de la Sra.

Mi video favorito es tu video sobre comparaciones de desigualdad. ¡Me gusta cómo usaste los caimanes para explicar mejor la información! ¡Mantener el buen trabajo!

I find your videos to be extremely helpful. I have tried Rosetta Stone and Duolingo, however, I have learnt and retained far more from watching your videos that I have learnt from those two programs combined. Thank you for such a super job in making learning Spanish fun.

[@codyjones3416]

Tibari Bada maybe you should try learning your language first

[@TS50ER]

Sr. Jordan, many thanks for your stellar instruction. I couldn't speak a lick of Spanish a week ago, but now I am making comparisons! Superlative teaching! Superlatives? Oh, they are next!

[@sarahmoon8968]

I have never commented on a youtube video in my life. I've been teaching Spanish for many years and often use your videos to the delight of my students. I am disappointed that I can't show this to my students, since it relies on stereotypes, sexism, and classism (the one with more money is happier?!). I hope you'll consider redoing this.

It goes before a guy's first name and is like "Mr." It's a way of showing respect to someone older while using their first name.

[@SeñorJordan]

+chantduciel Glad you found it helpful!

[@araxism]

Hi Senor Jordan, I very much appreciate the time you've put into your lessons and have been learning a lot of Spanish, but can I just throw in one piece of criticism? I'd like to ask you to please be considerate in your portrayal of women. A lot of teenagers are apparently watching these classes, and as you probably know they are a very impressionable bunch and will soak up much of what is coming their way, consciously and unconsciously. When they only see one-dimensional depictions of women all around them, boys are more likely to treat girls as nothing more than one-dimensional beings and girls are more likely to believe that that is all they are. In other words, it's detrimental to society at large when we stereotype gender (in the same way that it is detrimental when we depict ethnicities, religions, and races one-dimensionally). In this video, for instance, all the girls were merely described by how they looked (and often whether they were prettier or uglier than...). The boys, on the other hand, besides being described by their looks, also got adjectives like "serious," "intelligent," and "funny." In real life, as I hope you may have noticed looking around you, there are plenty of "serious," "intelligent," and "funny" women, and it actually makes them feel good when they are not qualified by how they look, but rather by what they have achieved.

[@Farago316]

If you watch the next lesson after this, Ines is depicted as an athletic and intelligent. female.

[@SeñorJordan]

Thanks for pointing that out, Aaron Tupaz!

[@SeñorJordan]

I completely understand what you are saying, araxism. For these first two videos with the gator drawings, I did my best with drawing on the computer, but I am not incredibly artistic and am quite limited! I also noticed what you pointed out when I made these two videos and as a result put additional characters in the next lesson, such as Inés, who is smart and athletic.

[@araxism]

Señor Jordan Thank you, Señor Jordan! I haven't had a chance to watch the next video yet, but I will soon. Anyway, I'm glad you noticed it yourself and added another character. I like your drawings, though. :)

[@porkysugrim]

where is the word bank?

[@SeñorJordan]

Nicholas Salansky It's in the description under the video.

[@kokoken1]

Sorry, but "than" is not a preposition. In English, the sentence should be "They are more intelligent than WE," not "us," because the verb "are" is implied.

[@oliviabrown1708]

Quit being so hard on Beatriz omg This was really helpful tho

[@momonostalgia1936]

Doesn't que mean "what"?

[@SeñorJordan]

MoMo Ducky "qué" (most commonly seen in questions) means "what"... "que" means "that" or in this case with más/menos, it means "than".

[@jorma1998b1]

I suggest redoing this video so that you spend less time explaining the form "menos...que", which is way less frequent than "mas...", and also, you could explain the grammar pattern at the beginning.

[@nicedog1]

As they have got Spanish names they must be caiman not alligators.
