The most embarrassing things that have happened to me while speaking Spanish... (podcast)

[@Lazbel]

Lol, the ladybug one killed me 😂. The bright side of all this is that, in the end, you never ever forget it, and become much more aware of the culture and truly start to understand how it really works. Good grief that now we have ChatGPT to ask for any potential inappropriateness 😅.

[@RomanAbreu]

As a bilingual (native Spanish, still learning English maybe forever haha) this was a really funny video to watch. Thank you for sharing these stories!

[@JazzminelLocher]

Girl I absolutely love your humor. I’m going to Spain next week for 6 months to be an au pair and I’m so scared. I already have a solid grasp on Spanish but the thing is is that I understand more than I speak because I get so scared to speak to natives. Thank you so much for making this video cause it’s very encouraging to see I’m not alone and everyone’s journey is different. I’m 21 btw

[@JazzminelLocher]

My goal for 2025 is to slowly lose this fear of speaking Spanish

Excelente vídeo! Debes dejar tu profesión y entrar como actriz de teatro, cine, series. La càmara te ama.

I relate a lot to you with your experiences. I moved to Canada 7 years ago and I went through (and still go through) similar situations. I am Chilean and I messed up big time many times. Being a shy person, now I can look back and I laugh at those episodes, they made me who I am. I agree with it's okay to be embarrassed. It's actually kinda good. It's good to be reminded to be humble. I don't know where I am going to end up, but for sure I will enjoy this trip called life. It's cliche but true, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger... and these things don't kill =) P.S: Your accent is unique! Mix of many lol

As SOOON as you said "coño" I went "oh no.." lmfao

[@fivestarplaying3553]

I was like NOOOOO!😂

[@Opaqu3eyeS]

Muy buena forma de pedir un helado, sí señora!😂

[@Lautaro710]

Muy chistosas tus historias, y la verdad, mi primera reacción respecto al disfraz en España, habría pensado también en la mariquita, ya que en Chile le llamamos "chinita" ¡no tengo idea por qué!, entonces habría pensado en la famosa mariquita, pero en fin, así son los países, todos diversos y con distintas variantes en las denominaciones. And referring to your "coñito" de chocolate, what can I say? just "ayudandote a sentir". Imagínate la cantidad de situaciones vergonzosas que aún te quedan por vivir. A mis años, claro que he tenido unas cuantas, aunque por mi avanzada edad, en estos instantes, no recuerdo ninguna. This podcast, really funny. You're a natural before a camera, just try to add more content, we'll all be here for you. Go gurl, please bring us more funny moments of your life being a spanish speaker. Your english is very clear and I can totally understand everything you say with no effort. Maybe you speak with a very good pronunciation and that make everything easy for me, I don't know. Please forgive any mistake I may had made, so I think I mispelled something, but, just put the blame on me. Once again... Kudos from Valparaíso, Chile!

[@javieramaige]

If something similar to the cone moment happened to you in Chile, they would probably laugh and then help you kindly, hand gestures if needed. 😂

Eres grande mujer!

[@trys24]

Pobrecita 😅 Yo creo que la empleada al final entendió que no hablabas bien español, pero como alguien que se ha avergonzado a sí misma más de una vez yo tampoco habría vuelto a esa heladería y tal vez ni siquiera caminado por esa calle para no tener que recordar ese día 🙈

[@pepegotera8598]

Como español te digo que un acento extranjero le da un aire atractivo, no debes avergonzarte, sin embargo, un idioma demasiado acentuado al cabo de un tiempo se vuelve vertiginoso ya que hay que adivinar lo que se quiere decir.Con respecto a la heladería en realidad es un error muy común como decir "Toro esta bien" en vez de "Todo esta bien" lo que ocurre es que como hablas tan bien español la heladera se quedo de piedra si lo hubieses dicho con acento posiblemente lo habría captado como un error,yo no le daría más vueltas al asunto.

[@vanemoonwalker6762]

🥺 I'd want to be fluent in English, but I get problem with all the similar Word. Or sometimes when I want to speak in English with English native speaker, i can't because I forget at all 🥺

[@caitliin2152]

Estoy appriendo español , quiero hablar contigo !! Podemos aprender juntas

[@vanemoonwalker6762]

@@caitliin2152 yeah sure 🥺

Greetings from Ecuador!

[@IntelligentAtheism]

I BET there will be many Americans who, after watching this video, will go to ice-cream stores in Spanish-speaking countries to ask for : Un co#o pequeño de chocolate 😅You know they will.

[@pixotee2007]

Oh noooooooo! MDi, Madi, Madi!

[@Desmosfundraw]

Wait ✋ is that the shirt of flags behind you ?? 🤨 You are planning for a new country ??😃

[@solidkaka]

Well frist of all hi from Spain :P and yeah the word " mariquita" means ladybug but also means that you are gay when is refered to a person, but the phrase that you said on that moment it was totaly correct. the problem there was the mind of the people ... we aare all dirty... xD and tanke this in mind moust of the words in spanish means diferent things, that dind't mean you are using it bad, its just some times the people is like that ... xD

[@nachos8030]

jajajajajjaaja

[@Kiro_UwU]

no me voy a reir por que se que me va pasar lo mismo pero en Ingles, muy valiente de tu parte contar esto xd

[@jadenbagsby70]

cuando did la southern accent come from

[@jdsantibanez]

South of Madrid or South of Spain?

[@sebastian-roland]

lol no tenes q pasar vergueza,,, have fun with it , laugh about it ... yo voy por mi cuarto idioma and having fun ... shame is bad mindset .. especialmente con algo que is not that important ../ big deal ....

[@uliseswalli]

ok

[@jdsantibanez]

¿Dónde vives ahora? ¿EEUU?

[@jdsantibanez]

In some moments, you have a Cuban accent in your Spanish. Why is that?

[@osoperezoso2608]

A lot of reasons. Here in the US, EVEN if you are of Spanish descent (me), there are so many different Spanish accents around you. So you pick everything up. From what I understand, Maddie has had similar experiences with Chileans, Spaniards from Andalucía, and everything in between.

Maddie la chica en este video es una nativa latina chilena. El idioma oficial de ella es el español no el inglés, Maddie no es una nativa americana.

[@sebastian-roland]

lol ask ppl not google .... ladybug...

[@feernandov7]

Como puedes ser tan española?

[@DaríoGarcía-d1y]

Voy a ayudarte a mejorar tu español. Estoy seguro que a estas alturas (by now) ya sabes lo que significa en español "just in case". Te voy a decir otra forma muy usual en ambientes informales o familiares. "Por si acaso" "por si las moscas". Sí, sí por si las moscas. por si acaso, por si las moscas, just in case. You can ask any friend of yours.
