The reflexive version sentarse (sit down) has the word arse in it, so it helps to remember the phrase 'sit your arse down'.

[@Bas_ssss]

Even better u can split into 2 parts , sent - Arse

[@AliAli-uk9nh]

Jajajajajajajajaja good one

[@quickielickie2106]

Thank you very much Dr. Evans. We always get confused with these verbs. It would have been nice if you put the two verbs beside each other for comparison.

[@siobhainb5891]

And it would have helped to see siento used as a form of sentar and used as a form of sentir so that we could see how not to be confused by the same "word" having such different meanings.

[@Gamestalk345]

God bless you you sir 🙏

[@heeman82]

The lesson I've been esperando for. Gracias, amigo.

[@nareshhaseja5827]

You are the best Dr. Evans. Your videos are of great help, always. I would request if you could make one video on English-Spanish Cognates and False Cognates. This would definitely help us immensely in increasing our vocabulary. Thank you once again for all your time and efforts.

¡Perfecto!

[@sonny4V]

Thank you for the useful lesson. It would've been better if you gave also the past tenses and the imperative of these two verbs. They're kind of tricky.

I need to study, study, study if I am to be anything like you. 👍🏽

[@cbsteffen]

Here’s a rather easy way for me to tell them apart: Sentar is related to sedentary (the “d” between vowels and usually any preceding “e” or “i” in Latin words are dropped for Spanish words). Sentir is related to sentimental.

[@kathywithakay]

It’s the past tense where I mix them up. How about a follow up video?

[@kieranmartin536]

What about when you use these verbs in the subjunctive and have to flip the endings?

[@c7eye]

[@paulfaulkner6299]

Gracias, Danny. Puedo ver que podria decir _Lo siento que me siento aqui._ {I'm sorry I'm sitting here} (lol) When accidentally finding the wrong aisle in a cinema...

[@ninadouglas6289]

Not really, that does not sound right. Most native speakers don’t use “lo siento” to mean “I’m sorry” we say : “ disculpe” or “perdón”.

[@pedrodiezcansecomunoz9676]

​@@ninadouglas6289, y se debe usar el subjuntivo: "Perdón que me sientE aquí". "Lo siento" se usa más en caso de duelo (mourning): -Mi abuelo murió ayer. -Lo siento mucho / Cuánto lo siento. También se usa para expresar, tal vez con un poco de ironía, algo que no conviene a la otra persona: -No he terminado el trabajo, pero ya debo irme. -Lo siento, pero no te vas. Te quedas hasta terminarlo.

[@eye-spygaming3015]

Hello I am your 5th like

[@borissulca1303]

Most conjugation of "sentar" in present are the subjuntive present of "sentir"

[@sonny4V]

Not exactly. There are only 2 which are the same (sientas and sienta). The others are spelled differently.

[@c7eye]

🙏🙏👍

[@leandrff106]

Hello yo hablo español 👍

[@carolholly2366]

How about the past tenses of these verbs. That's where things get confusing!

[@migstrives]

To apply: "No me siente bien cuando estoy trabajando en la oficina porque mi jefe no me sienta bien." Is this correct?

[@pedrodiezcansecomunoz9676]

"No me sientO bien", etc. ;) Normalmente "sentar bien" se usa con respecto a objetos, alimentos o situaciones, no con respecto a personas. Para las personas se usa más a menudo "caer": "Mi jefe no me cae bien" o "Mi jefe me cae mal". O incluso "No le caigo bien a mi jefe" / "Le caigo mal a mi jefe".

[@dennissanchez4121]

But this video doesn´t cover the difference between the present tense Yo form of sentir and sentar which are conjugated the SAME exact way (siento). How will a Spanish learner be able to distinguish using sentir and sentar in the present tense Yo form when they want to say I feel vs I sit?

[@bullcrapgoogle8528]

I think it would be a matter of context like English speakers have to do with the words, "bat" and "bat"

[@arnabkundu465]

Can I use the "sentarse" as "don't get on well with." e.g. I dont get on well with him. No me siento bien avec él. Will this be correct? Or We have a diff. verb for this? Thanks.

[@saisankar446]

No, you should use 'no me llevo bien con él,' also use 'con' avec is french

[@arnabkundu465]

@@saisankar446 Oui, en français,(le mot avec) je connais bien!

[@ninadouglas6289]

No you can’t, “sentarse” is only use as a reflexive.

Yo siento means i sit and also i feel?

[@Leonardo-1]

Yes ... Me siento ( enfermo) / I feel (sick) Me siento (aqui) / I sit (here) Yo siento (frío)/ I am feeling (cold) Similar verbs different meanings ...

[@gerlautamr.656]

But "sentarse" means "to sit down".

[@justanotherupscaspirant8837]

A comparison of the charts would've been nice. I'm more confused now

[@eziola]

Remember the meanings this way... If you had some letter-shaped chairs, you'd rather sit on an 'a'-shaped chair than an 'i' -shaped chair. Sentar = to sit / Sentir = to feel

[@genfari9522]

so the yo form is the same?

[@margaretnzula5915]

am a little confused,how do you differentiate the verb in the 'I' form?as it looks the same

[@huyduong1583]

So basically sentar means to sit or to suit

First

[@ronlevy262]

Sentir is also reflexive. To give only one example each, and not cover the reflexive doesn't really help a lot.

[@ericbaugher]

This is indeed a confusing topic. Looks like in the first person singular indicative both feel and sit arr spelled the same.

[@chriswesley594]

Another great video Dr. D. Thankyou. I have two ideas for you, one is a nitpick, the other might be more powerful for you and your channel: 1. [the nitpick] The opening - it's a full minute before content appears. The best intro in the world (and yours is classy and charming), gets old round about the 20th time you watch it, and when you've sat through it 100 times, you pretty much hate it. It's "friction" extracintg a cost (time) whilst offering no benedfit, so ripe for removal. Just a personal view. 2. The thing about all of these videos is that, for me, they miss the point. You're simply saying what is in any text of Spanish verb conjugations. There is value in the fact that you do it pleasantly, more engagingly than a book, in bite-sized pieces and with some insights, but for me, the really HUGE thing about all Spanish verbs and their conjugations is that they are INCREDIBLY BORING TO LEARN. I can't bear the flash cards, the endless get-it-wrong exercises - she sheer drudgery of it all. Well, you could say "well stop whining and do somehting else for fun then" and I guess you might have a point. But I wonder if there's a really smart, creative way to make learning these endless exceptions easier. If you could do that, I think you'd change the Spanish-learning world forever. Maybe a video about that would be good. How did you manage it (and for French too!)? How do your students manage it? I've been with you a long time, and I love what you're doing. These comments are meant to be a posiive contribution. Thanks for all you've already done for us.

[@Leonardo-1]

Perhaps the use of the verbs in context .... Maybe two persons engaging in conversation while using the target verbs. Just a thought. ONE LOVE!

Sentir tiene varias acepciones, no todas son emocionales. Lo siento, pero eso debiera ser corregido.
