Using Que in Spanish | The Language Tutor *Lesson 49*

[@lengthmuldoon]

For a beginner like me "que" is an utter mystery appearing everywhere with different meanings. This is a fabulous refence vid as the examples are clear, concise and self explanatory thank you very much

[@bidibibip]

Right??? It seems that no sentence is complete without a "que" thrown in there for some mysterious reason :D Now things are becoming much clearer!

[@ScreenTheSun-mr9zm]

WHAT THE FUCK IS QUE

[@joshuajackson4742]

Que is just baffling to me right now 😂

[@charlesgoller71]

I feel like que is the Spanish equivalent of American hot sauce, “I put that shit in everything.” Lol

[@wtv908]

Lol ofc💀

[@cedriko1662]

I am a native Spanish and the truth is that a phrase from a regular Guy here could be perfectly: "Lo _que_ te quería decir es _que_ lo _que_ hay _que_ hacer es _que_ tenemos _que_ planear una cosa _que_ era para antes pero _que_ ahora ya no hace falta _porque_ lo _que_ hay que pensar ahora es como vamos a cargarnos la bronca de la _que_ nos lo ha mandado" That Guy would more or less mean something like: What _I_ wanted to tell you is _that_ what there is _to_ do is _that_ we _have to_ plan something _that_ was for before but _that_ now it is no longer necessary _because_ what _what_ we have to think about now is how are we going to get rid of the anger of the _who_ has sent it to us.

[@TheLanguageTutor]

Glad we could help!!

[@nebulahawk5895]

I want to thank you, I took three years of spanish in school and nothing stuck, I've been watching your videos since early February and I've filled two notebooks with the lessons and practice. I've learned so much from your breakdowns and the way you build on past lessons while teaching new concepts when you give examples really helps cement the ideas. I'm already able to read simple sentences in Spanish more from their sentence structure and grammar rather than vocabulary, so while I don't always know what exactly is happening I know what pronoun is being used, and to who it is being done, and usually the context fills in the vocab gap, haha I went out and bought 3 more cuadernos to keep the learning going, it's been a very positive thing through this current isolation. Keep up the amazing work! Thank you!

[@TheLanguageTutor]

Amazing! You are such an encouragement to me and I appreciate it. I'm so glad the lessons are helping.

[@georgeasquith9613]

I have been watching your videos as they pop up from time to time and find them very helpful without being overwhelming. You seem to have a gift for breaking things down into “chewable chunks”. Muchas Gracias!!!!

[@lauraclark92]

I have a suggestion, it's really helped me. Your comment caught my eye, I can relate. I listen to Tejano music, especially Selena. I listen to the song and most of them are either catchy or beautiful, then I look at the translation. By now I know what she's singing, I know the songs word for word, I'm able to internalize the song with the language and makes it so much fun to learn! I recently discovered this learning channel and it's helped more than all my other attempts at learning this language. I'm thinking the combination of these two approaches is going to make my goal of becoming fluent a reality. I'm not there yet but I will get there!

[@busfahrer09]

@@lauraclark92 Thanks for the rec. Do you know some other musicians that don't break my fkn brain with their crazy mexican guitars...? Selena is actually pleasant to listen to and she has a nice voice but usually I want to end myself listening to Latin pop....

The best thing about your lessons is that they are not at all overwhelming for a learner. It is remarkable how you categorise and breakdown each topic and motivate us to practice further. Such a brief yet powerful explanation!

Thank you so much Dr Danny you make everything so clear. My Spanish is coming on so well with your help explaining how the grammar works. It’s easy to learn words but without being able to express yourself in the correct way speaking to a native speaker can be difficult. By watching your lessons and using a popular language app, I can generally understand and be understood when speaking with my neighbours and locals in Andalusia. Without your help I would not be at this level, but I’ve still got a lt more to learn but I’m loving it😁👍

Hello Dr. Evans. I really appreciate how you are helping all of us learn Spanish. This is probably one of the best resources online. Thank you so much. I have a question about a translation and I can't find an answer to this anywhere. English - I know that she is coming to the party Your answer - Yo Se que ella viene a la fiesta Why not - Yo Sé que ella está viniendo a la fiesta because it has 'she is coming' ???

[@MrSmith1O1]

Progressive tenses are not as common in Spanish as in English. You can translate "What are you doing?" as "¿Qué estás haciendo?" or "¿Qué haces?" with any change in the meaning. Although, some verbs, as "IR" o "VENIR", sounds weird in progressive tenses. So, "I'm coming!" is naturally translate as "¡Voy!" and not as "¡Estoy yendo!" nor "¡Estoy viniendo!".
