Wow! You just took on one of the hardest particles to explain in Spanish because SE has many uses! Love your simple examples when SE acts as a passive pronoun! Glad you emphasize that using the English passive sounds awkward to native Spanish speakers and should definitely be avoided! Keep up the good work! 🤓

I am a spanish native speaker. I wrote this using the word 'se' several times, if you understand it, you've got it En el corazón de un pequeño pueblo, se encontraba un hotel antiguo y misterioso. Se decía que se escuchaban susurros por las noches, se veían sombras moverse detrás de las cortinas y se sentía una presencia inexplicable en cada habitación. Se rumoraba que se trataba de un hotel encantado, donde alguna vez se hospedaron hechiceros y brujas.

​@amen_ra6926 In Spanish learning to read is very easy, just learn the sounds of each letter (not the names of the letters), and then put the sounds together. e.g. 'mamá' = m-a-m-á. Just the sounds. And the listening comes along with the reading and writing. Because in Spanish 99% of the time writing and listening are equal. *one will be *be able to read

This is an important feature of Spanish that often gets overlooked ir ignored: the ‘passive se.’ Norwegian has a similar set-up, which I believe is or was once called the ‘mediopassive.’ ‘I write’ = ‘Jeg skriver/‘It is written’= Det skrives. The beauty of it to me is that the tense is carried in the verb. ‘It was written’ becomes ‘Det skrivast.’ Se escribe vs Se escrito. I’d never thought about this until I watched video. Thanks for the presentation.

Both of you are right; the evolution from pronoun ge to se is because Spanish language avoids cacophony, harsh pronunciation of similar sounds; lelo meant to pronounce two ls following each other, which ended up changing the first l to s to facilitate faster talking. It happened in another words like cosecha, harvest, which comes from cogecha (cf. Verb coger).

Heya! I'm gonna go read the article after I comment this so maybe it will be revealed to me there, but my one question: Is there a stark difference between saying "Se me olvidó" and "Me olvidó"? There are other verbs often used in this way, but this is just one I find myself using often. After watching this video I feel like "Se me olvidó" translates to something like "It is forgotten to me", but is using this form of the verb too formal/ uncommon? Thanks!

I would just add that within the reflexive tense, "se" is used not just to talk about the same person doing the action also being the one receiving the action, but also just to spice up the language a little bit. I compare it in English to how we add words like "up, off, down" to verbs to spice them up. Instead of just, "He ran", we can say, "He ran off", or "he darted off". Instead of just "She ate the peas" we could say "She ate up the peas." Etc. Instead of just "he cleaned his spot", we might say "He cleaned off his spot."

I'm not sure, it's not something I think about. The letters "n", "m" and "ñ" will require nasal articulation naturally. But, I recommend all students focus on getting their Spanish vowels as accurate as possible. This is what I think about when I'm speaking Spanish. So, if your vowels are accurate, your Spanish will sound great!

Thank you for great content as usual! I have read lots of learners´s comments over the years that say that nearly every reference on the internet teaching Impersonal SE says that it can only be in the singular, while Passive SE constructions can use both singular and plural. For example: From one site it says, ´Impersonal se constructions are always formed with se + a third person singular verb.´ and from the same page, ´Passive se constructions can be formed with se + a third person singular verb or a third person plural verb, depending on what is being discussed.´ Many learners are told this or see this written and it confuses the hell out of us. Can you break it down once and for all and confirm or correct the above? Thank you. :)
@realfastspanish
@realfastspanish 7 ай бұрын
Thanks for the question Max! Firstly, this is a confusing topic that natives debate and don't always agree on. We can also find regional variations here. So, I'm not going to solve this "once and for all". But, I would say this is a question that largely doesn't matter. As I mentioned in the video at the end of the passive section, "how do I know if something is passive or impersonal?", it doesn't matter, it's simply a question of definition which linguists can debate but as Spanish students, we just need to say the sentences without thinking about them too much. I have a book on my bookshelf called "las 500 dudas más frecuentes del español" and it covers questions like this. I wouldn't recommend this book to students because 80% of the book is getting into the weeds and I think this question is getting close to this. An example from the book, the question is "¿Se alquila habitaciones o Se alquilan habitaciones?" which is correct? And the answer is the second is more common but both are allowed. It then goes on to discuss your point that impersonal is formed with a singular verb construction therefore the first is "impersonal" and the second is "passive". For me, as a Spanish teacher, the most important information here is that both are possible and the second is more common. Last point, in the video, I use my own definitions of "passive" and "impersonal" to get around this problem. If we compare these sentences "Aquí se habla español y francés" vs "Aquí se hablan español y francés", some would define the first as "impersonal" and the second as "pasiva refleja" and others would define them both as "pasiva refleja". Personally, I would rather define them both as impersonal since they are talking about an action in a general way. Then, in comparison "Se habló español en la reunión" (Spanish was spoken in the meeting), I would prefer to define this as passive because it was done by a specific group of people. That said, all of the examples I have provided above are acceptable sentences in Spanish. It is simply a question of how we define them, which again, I think for the most part doesn't matter because they are all grammatically correct.

Sometimes when I read information on the internet or books etc sometimes i see the "se" being used but don't understand why. So for example "Los manzanos se cultivan en todo el mundo." Apples are cultivated and you're not saying who so impersonal Se. But on the same hand why include the se? if you said "los manzanos cultivan..." I would read it the same! Thank you

¡Hola Kalza! You're example is like what I spoke about in terms of passive vs impersonal, it could be either depending on the context. But if we remove the "se", "Los manzanos cultivan...", then this would read as "Apple trees cultivate...", it would imply that the apple trees are cultivating something else, maybe a busy insect population such as bees". E.g. "Apple trees cultivate a big bee population" -> "Los manzanos cultivan una gran población de abejas". Whereas if we just want to say that "Apple trees are cultivated", then we need the "se". I hope that helps!!

Yes, absolutely, if you want to say "Where can I pay?", you can translate literally "¿Dónde puedo pagar?". This is a normal sentence in Spanish. You just need to remember to drop the "se" if you are going to say "I". But, it's also important to practice using the impersonal se as well so you can get used to it.

Up until I was 5 or 6 I spoke fluent Spanish. It's a long story. So I had the vocabulary of a 6 year old. I'm in my 60s and basically almost starting over. Although some phrases have been still used in the house by my mom so they stuck with me. But for a beginner, one needs a broad enough vocabulary to understand the words and context. A beginner may hear "se" and think it's a form of the verb Ser and not a pronoun. It won't be contextually correct but as a beginner, how would they know the difference? If you read it, it may make more grammatical sense. But if you hear it, you may be totally wrong. When you grow up speaking it, you just learn from hearing others. You don't learn sentence structure or parts of speech and usage until much later. Just like when English is learned. That has been my biggest challenge. Knowing expressions created from words that are put together that don't have a literal English translation. Like en vez de... for instead of... I mean who knew? I would have thought in time of... 🤷🏾‍♂️

Thanks for the question Chad! I just said this to another comment and I'll repeat it here for your reference: "I consider the "accidental se" as the 3rd category, the reflexive se, because it is always referring to the object or thing that the verb is modifying. I've seen other people say there are 5 categories or even 6, and as I mentioned at the end we could break out 3rd category into reflexive and reciprocal. But, for me, there are 4 basic sentences structures that "se" will appear in, and we can consider the "accidental" or "reciprocal" as subcategories of reflexive."

Funny aside: Many years ago, my high school Spanish teacher - with tongue firmly planted in cheek - told us that you don't use "le la" or "les la" or any other double L combination because it sounded to Hawaiian. You're welcome.

What about this sentence: Como se puedo ayudar? How do you explain "se" here?

What about the incidental " se .?" When you use " se " in order to excuse a fault of your own. For example, in English we say: I lost the keys. However, in Spanish they take the blame away from the person & say the keys lost themselves -- they do that by using " se " in the sentence.

This video was 99% perfect. He forgot the "accidental se". 😢 Should've been 5 uses

Thanks for the feedback! I consider the "accidental se" as the 3rd category, the reflexive se, because it is always referring to the object or thing that the verb is modifying. I've seen other people say there are 5 categories or even 6, and as I mentioned at the end we could break out 3rd category into reflexive and reciprocal. But, for me, there are 4 basic sentences structures that "se" will appear in, and we can consider the "accidental" or "reciprocal" as subcategories of reflexive.

I just want to say I have the hardest time remembering the word for carabiner in English as a native speaker. Maybe I’ll have better luck with mosquetón?
