one tip for learning spanish, is everything you see or touch say that thing in spanish 🤝. like when you see a blanket say “manta” ! and when u dont know the word search it up! learning 1000 words a day!!

[@charlieselrach395]

DAMN! this seems like a good challenge. I WILL DO THIS

[@manidk9891]

Good idea because I need to improve my vocabulary so gracias

[@languagephoenix932]

1000 words a day? Can you show me how to do that in Chinese? I'll have the dictionary memorized in 5 days then.

[@breezeloveable]

I love this. I do this already. Buttt i get lazy sometimes. Lol

[@emanuelheard3236]

This is what I did/do with Japanese and now I’m starting to do it with Chinese

[@justpassingby3409]

I’m bilingual already but I found it challenging to translate right away, my brain gets all messed up man, and the job I found is about translating right off the bat, so I’ve been practicing a lot to this job that pays freaking good

[@arielle172]

Same!! I’m bilingual and I have just recently been put to the position of interpretation at my church services… its challenging!😔Even sometimes embarrassing. It makes me feel like I don’t even know the language haha…

[@laurafernanda582]

Where were you able to get that job? Is it a company online?

[@spyderj3756]

AWESOME advice my brother! I'm trying to tell people that if you learn Spanish, you will ALWAYS be able to get a job! 👊🏾

[@rodrigobrazil]

Pretty good, man! I’ve been an interpreter Portuguese/ English for over 10 years. You were able to explain it in a simple and very clear way. Congrats!

[@Budzabit]

Hey man! Aspiring English / Spanish interpreter here. What would you say is the best path to becoming an interpreter? I speak Spanish at a conversational level, so obviously the first step is to learn it in fluency. But how did you persianlly get into this career, and what types of situations and fields do you primarily interpret? Thanks!

[@dsstudio76]

Oi! Você poderia responder a pergunta acima por favor. 🇺🇸🇧🇷

[@EasyPeasySpanishwithAngie]

Good! you explained the difference between translation and interpretation. Many people don't know it. There are also trainings for specific areas. For example in the health (which is mine area) and the law sector. The terminology is very technical. I use to be a sign language interpreter as well in my church. 😊 But now I do it for patients and colleagues in the hospital. Good video!

[@tiffanywaldon4875]

Love that! I’m interested in sign language as well!

[@EasyPeasySpanishwithAngie]

@@tiffanywaldon4875 great! Go ahead 😊

[@mhsinterpret]

Aahhhh hermano!! No sabía que eres intérprete! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 acabo de terminar un programa de ser intérprete de médico hace 2 meses 😍💕🥰 es un sueño mío ☀️

[@JohnKing-yr7xn]

I WANNA DO THIS SO BAD!!! THANKS FOR THE EXPLANATION.

[@jesusfeliz5181]

It's hard task to me when someone ask me what he said? The only thing that I know is that i understood it.

[@elizabethjefferson5647]

Same here. I'm African American and I've been speaking Spanish since I was a little girl, sometimes I can catch it and translate and other times I can't. It really bugs me.

[@user-sm4sf4ff2i]

Cheer~~~a person who interprets, especially one who translates speech orally.😊

[@catlady715]

Gracias por este video. This is a career path I think about often. I do know, however, that i need to work to improve my Spanish before i can take interpreter classes at a local university.

[@misswogdaily2344]

You go boy! You know you're bad when you can translate an equivalent phrase that will evoke the same or at least similar emotions. Practice practice practice is key! Gracias por la información.

[@victoriavelazquez97]

thank you for this video........ .yesterday i got the opportunity to interpreter my pastor but my first insight is i'm Spanglish lol yo puedo hablar Spanish pero aveces tengo las dos idiomas mix up . im praying about it ,si es la voluntar de Dios asi sera DTB

[@permata9613]

Thank you so much for this video!! Becoming an interpreter was the very first thing I wanted to become when I was a little child 😍 but my father convinced me to become a teacher instead, so now I am studying English and Spanish to become a teacher but this video reminded me again of how I wanted to become an interpreter 😍

[@hw4762]

This video is a real treasure man! Muchas gracias por los consejos. Sin embargo gracias a tus otros vídeos ya se sabe que lo más importante es trabajar 😅 put in the work how you'd say it haha Saludos desde Alemania 🇩🇪

[@tracycapozzi9286]

Thank you for this great information. I’m thinking of pursuing this as a second career. 😊

[@dwil5526]

This is a great video, it motivates me more to study Spanish. Thanks for the encouragement. 👍

[@Be.you.tiful.ruizzz]

Hang out with friends or date someone that only speaks Spanish, that’s what I did to learn English 🥰👍🏽

[@dwil5526]

That was a great idea. I think I may go and hang out where Latin Americans are located or get a job working with Latin Americans.

[@jacobcawse616]

I feel like he needs to collab with Spanish and Go.

[@silviag63sg]

Thank you!!! I’ve been searching somewhat for guide, and you have nailed it!! Thank you for your service and for helping us that are pursuing this

[@yerisonL04]

I m starting the process to become a Spanish/English translator. Next step is a test to see my lvl of English and Spanish. Spanish is my first language, but as you said it doesn’t make me into a translator. Looking forward to their training. Wish me luck! 🙏

Te deseo lo mejor y muchas bendiciones. You got this!! If it makes you feel any better. I have many translators at my church from Ecuador, venezuela, honduras etc who translate with me on Sundays! from English to Spanish

[@jorhodes8507]

Ricky, you are such an inspiration. I'm really proud of you. Imagine if your grandfather?...or father(I forget which one) had never told you that you were Puerto Rican you probably would have never learned Spanish. Who knows 😁

[@CreativelyBria]

I love this video and the detail! My current tutor is from Peru and I've always been focused in general on Latin American Spanish. Aprendo español porque quiero llegar a ser una traductora. Crees es mejor a concentrar en una regíon y cómo hablan? (still studying but hope I got the message across haha 💙subscribed to your channel)

[@onceagainbackagain]

Thanks very much bro!! Im looking forward to become an interpreter, translator, or English teacher, i think the last one should be the easiest. I've been out of classrooms as a student for more than 20 years, im actually 43 now, but i still think i may have a chance. Your Spanish accent kinda sounds dominincan correct me if im wrong. Te saludo desde Puebla Mexico, aqui en el rancho teolco lol,

[@richguagliardo6736]

Awesome video! I am in my Masters program concentrating in Spanish linguistics, and after I graduate I really want to pursue a career in translation/ interpretation. I appreciate your words and wisdom on the subject. It's nice to hear that you read up on books to expand translation knowledge and knowing two languages does not qualify someone to do that type of work. Do you think taking translation/interpretation certificate courses are worth the time and money? Cheers!

[@spanishwithabrar3767]

Where are you doing your masters program dear ?

[@Dlo_Chess1_1]

How’s your master program going ?

Hola ricky me gusta tu contenido. Pero si posible, puedes hacer más videos en español para que podamos practicar nuestra comprensión? Creo que esto sería especialmente utíl para tus seguidores que tengan un nivel intermedio y avanzado. Muchas gracias

Wow. This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks my man.

What's your experience with getting hired as a translator/interpreter, as someone who taught themselves another language vs going to school for it? I had always assumed you needed that in order to be hired or to take these tests (or it at least helps to increase your chances). This video and the resources are very helpful!

[@maximilianocastillo8032]

Woooow loco pense que tu eras Dominicano loco

[@marcocisneros8643]

I speak English and Spanish fluently BUT I struggle a lot when I try to translate texts, phrases, words etc English to Spanish or Spanish to English, Because when I speak English I'm not translating in my head I just speak and viceversa, And I think that's why I struggle with it a lot, For me being a good translator means a lot, Because I've been in difficult situations, Like when my friend from Chile tried to say something to my other friend from California but he couldn't cuz he has a basic level of English so he asked me to translate it for him and I was like "I have no idea", I hope I'm not the only one, But I want to be able to translate more accurately. Another struggle is with the MOODS, For example Spanish is my native language and the subjunctive mood is way harder in Spanish, And because in English sometimes you can just use the indicative to express what you want instead of the subjunctive cuz it sounds more natural that's what trips me up a lot, Ex. Me alegra que ESTES aqui, So in this examples the verb ESTAR is conjugated but in English you don't have to do that(Well sometimes) because you use have to use the infinitive, I'm happy that you're here, So here these two PHRASES are really hard to translate, Because in English you only have the verb TO BE but in Spanish there are two SER and ESTAR, So in the Spanish version you use the verb ESTAR not SER and in English you only use TO BE but I don't know, Let me think of something harder, Ex. Quizas LOGREMOS(Future subjunctive) un mejor resultado esta vez, Now let me try to translate that off the top of my head to English,Translation: Maybe we'll achieve a better result this time, So you see I rarely use the subjunctive in English what I can express with the SUBJUNCTIVE in Spanish I can either express it with the indicative in English or in the subjunctive too but that's a little bit harder, I dare to say that the subjunctive is slowly falling out of use(well there are some phrases in the subjunctive, like SO BE IT etc) if I'm mistaken I'm open for correction, I say this because I've never heard anyone say, I advice he DRINK water, No it sounds just not good it sounds robotic, So the more natural way would be '' Tell him to drink more water'' If you're saying someone to say it to him, I don't know there are things I really need to practice in both languages, For me this is so important because I need both languages to live and I can just get rid of English or Spanish, They're part of my life. EDIT: Translation is my passion is something that without having experience I can tell I love it, Because the thought of having the ability to unite people from different backgrounds and cultures through translation and man I just love it

Thanks man! May I ask, what is your background? You have a bit of a Caribbean accent when speaking Spanish and I have a hard time differentiating between Cuban, Puerto Rican and Dominican Accents.

[@waterdragon2012]

The problem with translating to Spanish is that there are so many types of Spanish from Mexico Spanish to Spain Spanish to Caribbean Spanish to Argentinian Spanish, etc etc. How do you go about working around that?

[@MAAU-tz1yc]

The problem with English is that you guys use too many things that might go from using animals, food or objects as verbs to using phrases that are hard to compare to Spanish, I get your concern tho, Spanish varies from each country.

Are you still open for lessons?

Do not become an interpreter. It's one of the worse jobs ever. Very stressful, low pay job. They put you in front of a computer, with a headphone and make you do interpretation, no stop, for hours. You will have terrible headaches, dizziness and you will end up losing your ability to hear well. Terrible job.
