Power Up Your Spanish! Perfect For Beginners

[@troyahart9826]

I have learned more about the Spanish language and how to use it through Paul's mini-course than I did through a semester of spanish at my local community college. I have bought his main course and...WOW!! When asked how did i learn spanish so fast (I'm not fluent, just know what i have learned from Paul's youtube videos and his main course) and I love saying..Spanish with Paul. Thank you Paul for sharing your gift and talent with the world. We need and appreciate you.

Thank you Paul for your effort to" learn me "the spanish language. I looked for a few other teachers but you did it for me as the best. L.G. from Queensland Down Under

[@lornacartwright1341]

Thanks Paul. Your Spanish videos are the best out there. I wish I had discovered your videos instead of paying out huge amounts of money and still not understanding how to speak and use Spanish properly at the end of the course. Fantastic!

[@tinamihalik9967]

I agree 100%!

[@kittysparkleeyes]

I love your videos, with my basic vocabulary I'm able to get the answers every time, I'm also able to apply this approach when chatting on FB messenger with my Peruvian friends. I never imagined I'd be writing long, intelligible sentences in Spanish!

[@jimbob8199]

Deberíamos estar escribiendo en los comentarios en español para ayudarnos nosotros mismos. Muchísimas gracias a Paul por todo! Lo aprecio mucho Paul!

[@ALMIGHTYKINGDICKY]

deberias estar un profesor en un universidad o escuela de Los ninos porque haces aprendiendo espanol muy facil. ahora mi hijo y yo podemos estar amigos espanol y ingles. otra vez gracias por todo. bendigas de dios. cuidate y Hasta aproxima lunes.

[@legaleagle46]

Very good. I saw only a few mistakes. Here is how I would correct what you wrote: "Deberías ser un profesor de universidad o de escuela para los niños porque haces muy facil aprender español. Ahora mi hijo y yo podemos ser amigos en español e inglés. Otra vez gracias por todo. Que Dios te bendiga. Cuídate y hasta el lunes que viene." I'm sure you will be curious about the corrections I made, so feel free to ask me any questions you may have. I'll be glad to help. :-)

Thanks Paul, I have learned so much. Can you do a mini-course for the classroom, or for teachers who need to communicate with parents. Taking your mini-courses have really boosted my confidence in being able to start communicating in Spanish.

Thanks for all the lessons. Earlier, I was able to speak a little Spanish with my mother.

[@babelow154]

Hi Paul, thanks for your lesson, it is always very enjoyable and easy to learn. However, in English, we don't use "I was going to........tonight or later" cos it has not happened yet. We use "i am going to.........tonight or late" Is this common in Spanish? Please correct me if I am wrong.

[@cammsb]

Babe Low I use that statement if it was something that was going to happen or supposed to happen but didn't

[@kaydawnbee]

I was going to buy one tomorrow but I found one today.

as always .your way to teach is incredible but what the difference using fui or iba ? still doubt

[@pufangliang1983]

FUI : It was . Iba a: was going to

[@estheraguirre3807]

Fuí can also mean yo fuí a Madrid el verano pasado. I went to Madrid last summer. Iba means I was going to ...

¡Hola, Paul! Tus videos son muy útiles. Siempre tengo hambre de los nuevos de ti. Por favor, corrija mi español (empiezo a aprender este idioma).Soy de Filipinas. Cuál es tu nacionalidad? please bear with my spanish lol

[@petrusphi6233]

Paugakhang. Lo has dicho correctamente, solo un error, que primero usas los pronombres y adjetivos para "tú", y luego usas la conjugación del verbo "corregir" para "usted", y eso no está bien; tienes que tratar a quien le hablas siempre de "usted" o siempre de "tú" en tu discurso, pero tú estas mezclado las dos formas, y eso no está bien (dijiste "(usted) corrija", en vez de decir "(tú) corrige"... Si hubieras usado "sus" en vez de "tus", entonces "corrija" habría estado bien. ¿Entiendes? (If you had used "sus" instead of "tus", then "corrija" would have been ok. Do you understand?)) . El resto de lo que dijiste es correcto, aunque suena inusual, así que yo lo hubiera dicho de la siguiente manera: ¡Hola, Paul! Tus videos son muy útiles. Siempre tengo ganas de los nuevos que nos traes. Por favor, corrige mi español (empiezo a aprender este idioma).Soy de Filipinas. ¿Cuál es tu nacionalidad? Por favor ten paciencia con mi español, lol (laugh out loud (me río a carcajadas))

[@xalbishqwerty8272]

Fantastic

[@estheraguirre3807]

Is it only me but I can't hear the conjunction a as in ' iba a decirte '

[@mademoisellem9556]

He said that because "iba" finishes with an "a" and is followed by the same sound/vowel, natives don't pronounce it twice when they speak. You only hear once but don't worry you can still pronounce it if it disturb you that he does not.

[@jimbob8199]

Lo explicaste muy bien. Gracias por todo. Lo aprecio mucho.

[@cherylblandin3513]

Gracias Paull

[@edelweisssymons7444]

Great for revision, thanks Paul.

[@RealityContradiction]

"cierto" means truth as well as "verdad" .. esto es correcto?

[@es4666]

Jupiter Stars it’s more like certainly. Would you like to eat some pizza? Si cierto. Of course. I love pizza

[@Godfavorabletome]

what is the book name with it

[@rabatmoroc4157]

u are wonderful

[@jimbob8199]

Eres maravilloso!

[@willtabacchi1408]

If iba = 'I was going' and 'to buy it' = comprarlo then why is not 'I was going to buy it" Iba comprarlo ? Why do I need the extra 'a'?

[@legaleagle46]

Because that's simply the way the language works. The preposition "a" is required in this construction in Spanish, even though it is not required in the other Romance languages (Portuguese, French, Italian, and Romanian).

[@jimbob8199]

Solo notarlo cuando estás escribiendo pero la preposición a no se usa cuando hablando en voz alta.

[@AriesMars]

because the letter < a > it's the equivalent of saying and using the preposition < to > like these examples: voy a comprar - i'm going to buy - me iba a comprar - i was going to buy voy a comer - i'm going to eat - me iba a comer - i was going to eat voy a dormir i'm going to sleep - me iba a dormir - i was going to sleep voy a pagar i'm going to pay - me iba a pagar - i was going to pay voy a trabajar i'm going to work - me iba a trabajar - i was going to work etc etc. in spain for example the people say voy a por el pan - meaning that they are going to buy bread.

[@AriesMars]

@@jimbob8199 pero en España si lo usamos y lo decimos sino no se entiende lo que uno dice, no es lo mismo decir voy a comprar que decir voy comprar, voy a comer que decir voy comer para nosotros es incompleto, es como los artículos determinaos o definodos: el, la, los y las, a veces escucho a algunos extranjeros decir: cosas como: metro donde está en lugar de < el > metro donde está? pastel se hace así en lugar de < el > pastel se hace así se que para un nativo es un lio no saber en cada caso que articulo usar, 😀 el articulo es muy importante porque nos da información de que nos están hablando si es singular o plural si es masculino o femenino.

[@meriemmessaoudene8415]

Where have you been

[@melodyreed9032]

why is it ocupado - for him- is that past?

[@legaleagle46]

Actually, you answered your own question. "Ocupado/a" is an adjective, so it takes the masculine singular ending "o" for "él".

[@tmoG3D]

tonight, threw me off. Any1 else? Regardless, love these videos.

[@epicjamaicanjokes8279]

I loved every second of it.

[@dorothypatterson1267]

Sometimes you have to watch the video a few times. I love how Paul breaks down the lesson and builds sentences. I have really applied what I have learned and have been taking private tutoring on italki and have confidence to start conversations when I meet native speakers. But the random chance of meeting a native speaker is rare so I like the tutoring. I also recommend radio ambulante which is a free NPR radio station in spanish with transcripts. Good luck.

I casn't hear Paul saying ' Iba a ' only iba

[@melodyreed9032]

oh i just realized ocupado/a is an adjective not a verb

[@petrusphi6233]

it's an adjective which is derived from a verb. The verb is "ocupar", and the adjective is "ocupado" por him and "ocupada" for her... "OCUPADO" (this doesn't have gender) is also the past participle of "OCUPAR" and used when you say: " I've occupied " which translates as "(yo) he ocupado"... (( "he ( I have)" comes from the verb "haber" which means "to have" as an auxiliary verb to form the perfect tenses... to have gone ( haber ido), to have loved ( haber amado), to have lived ( haber vivido), etc... notice the endings -ado for AR verbs and -ido for ER/IR verbs... There are irregular past participles (participios pasados) such as "escrito( written)" from the verb "escribir"... I have written ( (yo) he escrito)... or "hecho (done)" from the verb "hacer"... I have done ( (yo) he hecho)... ))
