Todos los videos que hacen son muy buenos pero, que sean más consistentes. Sería bueno tener un horario para salir con un video cada semana o cada dos semanas.

I've watched a few of your videos....they're all good, but to be honest I don't immediately know what you mean by a slightly new style. Maybe if I watched them side-by-side I'd know what you meant, but at first glance, they seem all similar in style. All excellent and clear.

@@spanishunraveled please can you do a video on? When to use a without the verb being conjugated and when to use the verb without the a because sometimes the the word to is implied without using the a and sometimes you, you have to use it example voy al hospital

Every spanish lesson video on youtube teaches the basic verbs, really basic sentance structure or goes straight to just talking like a native and expecting viewers to understand. No one takes the time to explain things like this so very well done and amazingly explained! Very easy and clear to understand and follow. Keep it up!

Se is probably the hardest bit of grammar I’ve tried to learn. Even though I now understand it I have hell time hearing and comprehending it in real time conversation. Thanks so much for this excellent video!

Vivo en Texas, así que es bueno escuchar el acento mexicano y los coloquialismos. probablemente también dependa del estado mexicano. Thanks for the good work.

Brilliant… this is exactly the kind of lesson I need personally at the moment! Lessons beyond the formal basic. I always love the energy, humour, and joy. I think the little tests are great too! Thanks so much!

¡Qué buenísimo video! Estoy mejorando mi español con dos profesoras de España (queremos mudarnos allí). Las dos me han contado: Usa "se me ha olvidado" en vez de "me olvidé". También he aprendido frases como "se me ha hecho tarde". Después de mirar este video, los significados tienen mucho sentido. Se usa el pretérito perfecto mucho (en vez del pretérito indefinido) en España. Me encanta este canal. Muchas gracias. :)

Hola y bienvenido al canal 😊 Sí, de verdad te va a hacer sonar más nativo esa frase, no nada más lo decimos por likes, jajaja. También en México se usa mucho “se me ha hecho tarde”, pero es más usual decir “se me hizo tarde” como bien dijiste. Un abrazo desde México.

Thanks for the video! 1. I have also heard this with ocurrir, to say that some thought randomly (accidentally?) occurred to someone. 2. I still don't fully understand the soccer lament "se....la....perdioooooo" when somebody misses an easy shot. I think it is a different construction, because the "la" in that case is a direct rather than indirect object (i..e, the opportunity or the shot is the thing that was lost). Right? Anyway, I never understood why it is always "la" and not "lo".

@spanishunraveled 10 ай бұрын

Hey Mark :) Yep, se me ocurrió is super common too ... I actually use it quite a lot myself! Yeah, I've heard that one as well! It's actually the same structure but with a colloquial touch, so it doesn't follow traditional textbook rules. The "la" refers to the missed opportunity (la oportunidad), so I think the phrase basically captures the disappointment or disbelief that the shot wasn't put in the back of the net without directly blaming the player (which is the point of the accidental se); "la perdió" would be a bit harsher sounding to my ears as you're unabashedly pointing the finger at the player - - I hope that wasn't too convoluted an explanation, haha

How is “se me antoja un taco” an accidental “se”? I don’t accidentally want a taco. Is it because the craving “happened” to me without me actively initiating it?

@spanishunraveled 6 ай бұрын

Hey :) Yes, it's not technically an "accidental se", but the structure is very similar, so we couldn't help throwing it in 🙊 The "se" in "se me antoja un taco" (which is a super common phrase, BTW) is actually used to emphasize that the desire is involuntary and/or spontaneous rather than accidental per se. The structure is the same though :)
