Spanish Vocabulary Practice: A day at the Market in Mexico City

I went to the Central de Abastos in Atizapan de Zaragoza in Greater Mexico City to show the Mexican market experience, and also to record some good Spanish vocabulary practice for all of those who are learning!

[@bowwowers]

Idk why but I was cracking up when he said "you speak graet English" "yeah, I'm from Pennslyvania "

[@xOALtoFrEak900Ox]

Lol.

[@sparklysparks77]

4:24 I think he said somethine along the lines of "just got back from Pennsylvania", I'm not sure.

[@texuztweety]

WOW!! First time to your channel, LOVE IT! My 10 year old son and I are learning Spanish (we live in Houston) and we got a huge kick out of every single part of this video. Great jokes, great fun, great Spanish, great people at the market, learned so much, THANK YOU

[@primitivochapa7837]

What up Houston....this is Primo in Galveston ...Ford is awesome recommend all his videos

[@MacetazzOpina]

how did those lessons go? hope you're making progress, I'm sure most mexicans would be proud and honored to help you practice if you ask them!

[@JoeDplummer_]

Bien chida! la musica tipica de Mexico que usas en tus videos. Super!!! Adoro a Mexico!!!

[@hhftg2591]

This video just makes me so happy. Lots of different foods that i have never seen before.. Muchisimas Gracias

[@Alex-uf6su]

Im from Argentina but now im living in Virginia, I sincerely love when the gringos are interested in the Hispanic culture, I do not know but it is something that makes me happy, I hope that many more people can enjoy it. Good video!

y otra observacion ala salsa mexica aki en jalisco y nayarit y en varios estados es la de jitomate chile cebolla y silantro y en zacatecas y otros estado la llama piko de gallo jaja y eso me da mumcha risa.porla salsa mexixana yeva su nom.bre alos 3 colores y el piko de gallo es cualkier fruta pikada con sal limon y chile y se le llama piko de gallo xk con un palillo al pikar un trozo de fruta esta emulando o emitando el movimiento de un gallo cuando como maiz.asi k dejen de llamar ala salsa mexicana.piko de gallo xk eso averguenAn al pais y mas los pochos k viven en lps estado unidos k no viven aki y cuando vienen creen saverlo todo cambiendo nombres jeje saludoa fornd

Hey bro - mint vid. I'd actually pay decent coin for a series like this - i learnt more in 10 mins that i have in months of studying. Getting down to the nitty gritty like at real markets and shit and hearing real talk is where it's at. Cheers.

Que bueno, que cada vez más gringos se interesan en aprender español. Eso hace que las culturas se acerquen un poco más y a su vez cambian algunas ideas erróneas que tiene la gente.

[@georgestanko2523]

Gringos need it more now than ever before. Any time anything related to Latin America is on the news, its never good. Never presented in a positive light. Its a damn shame.

[@MacetazzOpina]

@@georgestanko2523 yeah it happens here with some Karen type tourists as well, also we get a lot of echoing bad press regarding trump and such, it makes Americans look entitled and self driven, as well as hostile against us mexicans. The important thing is we remember we are all one big family, all cultures and races are the same and must unite as brothers and sisters, the real enemies are those who want us divided for their own gain. I send you a warm hug from Mexico, my dude.

[@georgestanko2523]

@@MacetazzOpina recuerdas, malas noticias venden los periodicos. Media uses drama to sell. They only show you the worst of us to sell their show, to sell their paper. It's not the whole truth. Trust me, no one here likes Karens either. And most people think trump es un hombre muy loco...mucha gente aqui no le gusta trump tampoco. Es lo mismo aqui. Solo malas noticias. Los mexicanos y los gringos son los mismos...personas...solo personas...pero...solo unas personas pueden lo ver. Mi amiga de mexico me dice...Ella es muy, muy triste porque su hermana y tia son aqui....me siento mal por eso...porque todo su escucha no es verdad. Ella me dice, yo soy su primero gringo amigo...lol...Gracias mi hermano. Hugs right back to you!

@@lougonzmart6337 okara, if it is what i think. Its like soy bean extract or pulp, it tastes kind of like dairy-ish, kind of like fiberish, but mostly really tasteless, with more of an aftertaste. You can make it have any flavour that you want kind of like with tofu itself.

@Ford Quarterman. Things have different names around the country. In Chihuahua jitomates are called “tomates” and those green ones are called “tomatillos”. Here in the USA we called them “husk tomatoes” The mixed peppers the guy called “morros mixtos” are called “pimiento morrón” which here in USA we call “red, green and yellow bell peppers”

Excellent video! Just one small clarification. The only people who use “finito” is all English speakers that think we use it. LOL. It is a Latin based word but we don’t normally used it to indicated something has finished. We do use “infinito”, meaning “endless”.

[@logothaironsides2942]

jitomate is very regional. limón and lima is backwards in Mexico, it could be different depending on the region or country you visit.

you can get chayotes here, but they are especially popular in the South// tomates are not green tomatoes, but are tomatillos// zucchini flowers are popular food in New Mexico and probably other places in the US, battered and fried especially yum
