Interjections Spanish Speakers Say

¡Ay!, ¡Órale!, ¡ushh!... all of those are interjections. We use them when we need to express feelings. Let's talk about interjections in Spanish!
This is an intermediate to advanced Spanish listening activity.
Maria is a Colombian Spanish teacher, that is teaching Cody who is a native English speaker, how to speak Spanish.

In this video, we are going to talk about interjections in Spanish. Interjections are words that you use for exclamation. They are words or noises you say or make to express feelings and emotions. They are unique to each language and even though they're not necessary when you learn a language, they will for sure get you closer to sounding like a native speaker.
The interjections we are going to look at in this video are...
Órale
Ushh
Ay
Huy/Uy
Ojalá
Yupi
Viva
Madre Mía
Where you able to guess the correct interjection for the sentences. Let us know in the comments below how you did. Also if you know any other interjections make sure to post them in the comments below as well.

    I´m from Germany and I have a friend from Colombia who is in Germany at the moment. She is here as an exchange student for about 6 months and she often uses "Ay!" and "Ushh!" to react to something. So far I always understand what she means but it was really interesting for me to learn the exact meaning of these expressions! I just discovered your channel and your videos are really helpful to learn Spanish!

    well, you need to listen a lot but also try to say a lot. Like, interacting. That is what will actually help you improve your listening skill! A lot of people have commented about the slower Spanish, but I honestly believe it is because I enunciate more than most people (It could be a habit from teaching). That is how I normally speak though! Thank you for watching and subscribing! 🙂

    Cuando aprendo una nueva palabra o frase me gusta mirarla de todos angulos. Eso me divierte y me ayuda a recordarla. Cuando conocí "orale" me quedé perplejo. Pensaba "de donde viene eso?". Al fin noté que "orale" quiere decir el mismo como "andale", y decidí que "orale" era, probablemente, una versión muy mutilada de "andale", que quiere decir, nada más ni menos, que "!Vamonos!" Así hago el aprender de nuevo vocabulario interesante en lugar de penoso.

    When to translate decepción, fully expecting it to be deception, which it did mean, but that was the second translation for the word. The first was Disappointment, and the 3rd was Let Down!! Meaning when a Spanish speaker hears that word they're more inclined to think of a let down than a deception, even though it means both. A lesson I'm sure to forget lol. But I have learnt over the years that although words may share a common route that their meanings may have shifted slightly, or even its an antiquated word. Which goes both ways. Spanish use plenty of Latin words which we can find in our dictionaries and are "exact" matches but have fallen out of modern day use in English and vice versa.

    Yeah! you mean "¡oye!" which is an instruction or order you give someone, and it literally means "hear" (It makes more sense as "listen!"). It would be the equivalent of "hey!" in English. You don't only use it when you are angry, but also in other situations where you want someone to pay attention to you. Great question! 💛
