Yo nunca he oído una persona decir eso cuando le preguntan que cómo está. Pero, tristemente, en los libros de enseñanza del idioma castellano en Estados Unidos, en lugar de decir más o menos, les enseñan a los alumnos a decir así así. Después vienen los pobres a practicar su español con uno y le responden de esa manera a umo cuando se les pregunta como están y ahí después no halla uno como corregirlos para que no se sientan mal.

    I really really love the Spring Spanish videos, my only little criticism is about the titles saying: "DON'T SAY......." , because the impression that it's wrong to use that particular expression and that learners should avoid using it, when in reality they are perfectly good, correct, and frequently used expressions. It's just that it's possible to expand one's vocabulary and fluency by learning other ways to say things.

    Sometimes we simply ask "¿Qué tal?" and the other person says "bien, y tú", but only in informal situations. "¿Que tal estás?" is ok too. And a very informal answer can be "tirando" but that's very informal. Anyway the European Spanish is a little different from the Spanish people speak in America. Not better or worse, just different. I travel to America a lot (the whole America, not only USA) and sometimes they don't understand some of the words I say and viceversa. But it's fun. I enjoy talking to Mexican people a lot and I like the way they evolved their language across the Atlantic Ocean.

Our Spanish is as different as the English of someone from Texas and Maine. Are there different words to call the same object? For example, pop or soda, sub or hoagie, sure, but the grammar rules and everything else is standard. So funny hearing Spaniards make it sound like it's a different language, "evolved"? 😅 We all belong to the Asociación de Academias de la Lengua Española to ensure a standard castellano

    I guess common responses to "How are you?" in English: - I'm good. - Good. - I'm fine, thanks. - It's a good day. You really don't say anything negative in the US, or if you do it's unexpected. You're literally just expected to say you're "fine". But you can say negatively: - I'm having a bad day. - I'm not feeling well. - I don't feel good right now. But then you might get a lot of nosy follow-up questions. If you say "I'm doing great!" and smile, it's usually better in most situations because the question is not an honest one when they ask at like shops, restaurants, bars, etc. It can be frustrating to not be able to share your feelings but then again, people who are on the clock don't need to be burdened with a stranger's shit either. Interestingly they make fun of this tendency to expect a positive response in a Bojack episode called "Free Churro". He says he's usually doing shitty, but you don't just say that to a cashier. But he was having a shitty day bc his mother had died. So that was the one time he answered honestly, especially annoying was the fact that the girl was trained to ask "are you having an AWESOME DAY?" ---- "Can't complain" is a common British response, but it's not that common in the USA.

    Eh, totally depends on where you are in the U.S. Can't complain is def used in the south. "If I was any better I'd be twins", "Any day on this side of the ground is good". "just chillin". Or sometimes we never directly answer we just make a comment.. How u doin? "We're headed to the beach this weekend.." or "Just got back from Guatemala, gotta make a Costco run". I think you'd get less negative responses in a formal situation or where you don't really know the people, with friends and family I think you'll get both. Could also get the slang responses. "F*cked, actually. Just found out my company is shutting down." Good vid though! Word play and not getting stuck in language ruts is good fun.

    To the Spanish learners out there: you’re better off learning polite standard replies like “estoy bien” or “muy bien, gracias” instead of some of the suggestions given in this video. First of all the “nada mal” sounds like a forced translation of “not bad”, people don’t really reply in that exact way. Also Mexican slang or regional phrases are good for Mexico, but they don’t always translate well to other Spanish speaking countries (the same is true in the opposite direction).

    I wish to return the favor you provide (helping non-Hispanics speak better Spanish). The word "knowledge" when divided is "knowl" and "edge" and is pronounced "nol" (short o) similar to nawl and "ij", with the accent on the first syllable. I will try to improve my knowledge of how to correctly speak Spanish by watching your show. You really make learning fun! Muchas gracias!

    "Estoy poca madre" - that's completely understandable for me. 😉 How is a mother? Always caring and working for her kids/family. So, if you feel extraordinary as a mum who has nothing to care about, who can feel "less motherlike". That's my explanation. 😊

    Ok, but the why “ estoy a toda madre” is as good or even better? And “estoy pa’ la madre” is the worst? It really doesn’t make any sense, it’s just slang.

    As a Spanish speaker (tho I hope this doesn't sound entitled or sth), I use, "Estoy bien, gracias, y tú or usted" most of the time or "Bien, gracias, y tú? in short. Personally, the only occasions when I change "bien" for something else is depending on the level of trust or whether I want to engage in a conversation. What I mean is, you can be sad or not quite good, but you can reply with a standard "bien, gracias" if you don't want to worry or give any further details about your mood to someone you don't necessarily know/trust. It's the default answer most of the time, and from my pov no one will think you sound stiff or unnatural if you use "bien, gracias, y tú?" when most "native" speakers would use that phrase 99% of the time.

    I’d learned from my mom and her sister that “madre” was typically used in the negative and “padre” in the positive, as in “qué padre” for “how cool”. But maybe it’s all about context and/or locale.

    I think this video would be excellent if you display the Spanish subtitles much longer. The words disappear very quickly and they're not very or just played very well. Would also be very good if you spoke equal amounts of Spanish with equal amounts of English. It's really nice when you speak English in this followed by Spanish translation or you speak Spanish follow By English translation. Think it's okay to leave the Chinese subtitles on the screen much longer

    To those learners: In Latin-America you can say «Chevere» as an alternative to «Bien»: - How are you? - (Good) Chevere; (all good) Todo chevere; (super good) Super chevere, etc... In Spain you can say «De perlas» as a way to express satisfaction with how things are going. - Hey, how's your day going? - Me ha ido de perlas hoy. "Everything has turned out awesome today" It's not uncommon to use just the average "estoy bien", I get it's kinda boring, but it's rather useful.

I want to learn to speech Espanyol to at least hold somewhat of a conversation with his family. His mother found out I love tamales and she sends some home with my daughter often. They are very good. But we are invited back out for Mother’s Day and I would like to speak some Spanish by then. Help me out. Please. Thanks for the videos.

    No se compliquen la vida y respondan: "Bien gracias, y tu?" o "Bien y tú " Yo tengo casi sesenta años y así respondo desde que aprendí a hablar. Si no están teniendo un buen día y quieren dejar abierta la posibilidad de que la persona que le preguntó cómo estás quiera saber más detalles, pueden responder:"Más o menos" o "No tan bien" a lo que la otra persona normalmente preguntará: "Por qué, que pasó". ****Importante ***** Hablantes nativos por lo general respondemos bien gracias, mal, más o menos, sin decir estoy, cuando nos preguntan cómo estamos.

    Yeah love how in different countries(or even different regions of that same country), Spanish can differ in how it’s spoken and what some words mean!
