What are some more common Spanish phrases that you know that come up a lot in Spanish conversations?

[@MaestroPdx]

I think this is specific to Mexico but I just got back from Ciudad de Mexico and they say " a Poco" a lot to mean ...really? or Wow really? He just ran a marathon ... A poco? And also I heard a lot of "ahorita" meaning soon or in a moment ..... Quieres comer? Ahorita

[@XxmusicXxplz]

Estaba vs estuve past tense conversations come up a lot and it’s what I struggle in the most when do I use estuve instead of estaba or even he estado?

[@unknownquantity4440]

Super useful constructions, as always. Still the best Spanish language learning channel for native English speakers, hands down.

[@realfastspanish]

Wow, thank you so much for the kind words!! 😊

[@cachecow]

I'm watching House of Flowers too. Paulina speaks so slowly she's the best for learning Spanish!

[@lindagm9332]

I can ask the question, but it's the answers that trip me up. 😅 Perhaps learning the "anticipated answer" would be helpful??? Good video.

[@LaTee21]

Love your videos😊

[@spongechameleon6940]

La frase "da igual" me sorprendió mucho, pensé que ibas a decir "no importa". Pues da igual el tema siempre aprendo algo nuevo de tus videos. Gracias¡!

[@johnbollenbacher6715]

Good videos. I think they might improve if you could find a way to put both the Spanish text and the text on the screen at the same time.

[@marcusscott9800]

Outstanding video. Thanks for the great PDF download. Keep up the great work:)

[@nickglover4038]

Thanks for the help

[@rl7329]

This was really useful great video thanks

[@AstronautKazaplier]

The hardest things about Spanish are trying to keep up with the 2 most quickest spoken language on average is the hardest. Second try Ming to conjugate verbs in different tenses and trying to work out what se means or reflexive words. Also the grammar is mostly alright just that it can be a little weird. Also word for word is strange for example Por Supuesto when por doesn’t mean of only. Sin embargo “ however”when sin means without generally and embargo means embargo seizure etc. I need advice around these.

[@believeinpeace]

Perfect lesson! ¡Muchas Gracias!

[@JA-jh5gr]

This is amazing keep it up 👍

[@realfastspanish]

I'm so pleased to hear that, thanks Marilyn! 🙏

[@ozlemaykac1135]

Super.

[@leeholden13]

Love your videos. I have one request. Could you please turn up the volume on the movie clips? Even at full volume (which makes your part of the video way too loud for anyone) the voices on the movies are unintelligible...softer than whispers. Thanks

[@laurasebastian6036]

You are an amazing teacher!!! It's the best to watch your videos. My bf is learning Spanish and I show him your videos!!

[@realfastspanish]

Thanks for sharing Laura! 😊

[@eziola]

At 2:43 (over your right shoulder) there is a typo ("Y en contreto"). Thanks for the video!

[@ericbaugher]

[@melted77]

Hola! I am a new subscriber to your channel- living in the USA- and trying to learn Spanish (obviamente). One hang up I have and have never seen a video (& can’t get a Spanish speaker to explain) about is ESTE y ESTO. How the heck are you supposed to know which of these masculine nouns translates when you say this/that? I have been practicing as many as I can regarding nouns as I can that ‘break the rule’ (for example ending in ‘a’) - dang logic based thinking- but I wondered if there was a pattern to the masculine (I don’t even understand ‘why’ there are two options for masculine 😆). Any tips would be appreciated!

[@Juanee31]

some of these constructions are purely neutral, I gotta say.. however I think its super clever sticking to neutral spanish teaching, like you do.. its either Castellano, or spanish from Mexico mostly. Cuz if u were to use PUES in Argentina.. you'd get bullied or something, it doesnt exist. I enjoy your clases de Español - teach the kids some mexican slang, now thats FUN

[@jolly_gman]

Hey man have you covered the differences between using Tú and ti as in para ti yet? I know I would benefit from that!

[@max_pin]

Is "my shout" Australian for "my treat"? I hadn't heard that one. A side of Aussie with my Spanish. 😄

[@stephenstuart9881]

Exactemente correcto

[@lukegallagher7825]

How did you learn Spanish and what would you say was the best method that worked for you?

[@realfastspanish]

Hola Luke, I usually recommend a combination of methods for most students. Check out my video on principles vs methods.

[@lukegallagher7825]

@@pito1127180 thank you! I sure am!

[@melted77]

Also, in the vein of this video: ‘Dime un poco sobre/de…’ the question is when to use sobre or de? 👍🏼

[@dosjuans1]

how is ''no te preocupades' different from 'no preocupades'? at 4:08 in the video?

[@elenachristian9860]

Don't you worry, v Don't worry. In the second one, the object is implied. We do the same in English--Don't go there v Don't you go there!

[@TheGholiday]

Help! I keep getting confused with the pronunciation of “c”. First I learnt a c is pronounced “th” if it’s followed by an i or an e, now I’m learning it’s not. I’m also lost when it comes to a double c (cc).

[@JasonWhittaker]

On-screen text says ‘en contreto’ 😢

[@realfastspanish]

These little typos drive me crazy (¡Me vuelven loco!) and I can't fix them once a video goes live 😭

[@JeremyInscho]

¡Ay! Tanto, tan rápido. Aunque son frases importantes

[@elenachristian9860]

Si, muy rapido!

[@vmars316]

Thanks , but it would be much more helpful , if you leave the spanish word on the display a lot londer .

[@lifeitshort]

Why are you in such a Hurry...maybe you need to remember you are supposed to be teaching not just rambling on..cheers Mate

[@shivanruddick6524]

Thank you for the vid! How do you use the subjunctive tense in spanish? It's confusing me

[@realfastspanish]

Yes, the subjunctive is difficult but I like to remind students that it's not as important as many other concepts. It's possible to speak in Spanish for hours without it. The subjunctive is only required for specific constructions.

[@shivanruddick6524]

@@realfastspanish ah right OK thanks

[@spongechameleon6940]

In general you use it when something is uncertain or 'not real'. There are verbs like esperar that *always require the use of the subjunctive. Espero que tengas buen día (I hope you have a good day). It's uncertain if you actually will or not so ya gotta use the subjunctive- the only time you don't use subj with esperar is when the hope-r and doer are the same e.g. espero tener buen día (I hope I have a good day). There's a group of verbs that require subj when used in the negative sense e.g. creer. Creo que es fácil (I think it's easy). No creo que sea fácil (I don't think it's easy). You gotta use subj + future tense for expectations or future plans when using cuando e.g. cuando tenga 60 años, seré lo mejor (when I'm 60 yrs old I'll be the best). You can also choose to use subj with quizás and tal vez, depending on how confident you feel about something. Quizás va a llover (maybe it's going to rain - and you think it probably will). Quizás vaya a llover (maybe it's going to rain - and you think it probably won't). I obvs left out a ton of verbs and for sure more rules but hopefully that gives you the gist of it. Just started learning it myself but these are a few things my teachers have taught me over the past couple months.
