Living in Madrid and have been learning Spanish for years, but your video lessons are great for revision, thank you! I am revising, learning and, hopefully, improving as a result of your classes. I'm sure my Spanish friends are going to be pleasantly surprised when I meet them after this quarantine ends. Stay safe all!

You right I like the chart it helps me to understand easily 😉
I am Russian, married three years ago to French and living in USA, where I suppose to need English but not in Miami where everyone speaks Spanish. So I have to have impeccable English, fluent Spanish and French (everybody know how French ppl punish you for bad French ))) and i don’t have much time to learn. To be honest - these videos are very helpful in my struggle and I finally summarized all the grammar. I don’t feel so lost in conjugations and tenses anymore, thanks to you dr. Danny!
this helped me so much in my spanish class during quarantine time :))))

I realized a very interesting point during this lesson. I've been having hard time with placing the indirect object pronoun before the verb. I find it silly since the lesson you taught us. I realized now that in my mother language, Turkish, it is also done this way. I was having hard time because I've learned Spanish from English (from you, more precisely), not from Turkish. Ridiculously funny. Thank you for the lesson!

I like the way you teach!! A lot!! It is my learning style. Also this is my first video of yours that I've watched. My husband and I are living in Mexico and learning Mexican Spanish so I was wondering if you indicate differences in Mexican Spanish and Spain Spanish. I noticed you mentioned it regarding vosotros but I know there are many differences. Anyway thank you! I'm glad I found you. We will start learning form your videos.
@gerlautamr.656
Жыл бұрын
Hi, I'm Mexican, and yes, there are diffrences, but apart from the obvious pronunciation of the letters "c" and "z", I would say most of the differences arise from the fact that we use different words to call certain things, which doesn't mean that Mexicans and Spaniards don't understand each other.The same applies to the rest of the Spanish speaking countries.Comparing Spanish from Spain with Spanish from Mexico is like comparing British English with American English.
I love your classes Danny! But in your description it should be 'its use' not 'it's'!
Great video again!

The word "di" is used in those two verbs, for example: Le di las gracias al profesor - I thanked the professor. Di lo que quieras decir - Say whatever you want to say.

Question. You don't change the stem of a stem changing verb in the preterite tense right? Like jugar in the present yo form is Juego but in the past it is Juge? I saw it on google translate.
Since we mostly don't have vosotros, do we use le for plural as a group (f.e. I told students)??
Respected sir, I am Ravishankar, hailing from Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India, I would like to communicate my writings and feelings in Spanish to my friends, however I could not to do so, due to lack of communication skill, the reason is that I do not have persons to converse and understand the language, though i have been continuously watching your tutorial session. i have been learning your classes on Spanish since 6 months, i could understand and not able to talk due non availability of speaking exercise during your teaching session, I therefore kindly request you to please have such classes to enable students like me will get conversation exercises in order to learn Spanish language faster than the expected time frame and oblige. I anticipate you will do the needful in the subject matter. And please suggest any person who could talk or communicate fluently in Spanish from any country and also who knows English too, who is able to manage both the languages.

Hi, when saying 'I told you' (past) you said 'te dije'. My question, would 'Yo te dije' - i.e. would the use of 'I' be right also?
@Jim2708
4 жыл бұрын
I am just learning as well. However, I feel quite sure you could say "Yo te dije" as well - especially if it helps you to learn. I believe that in practice, more often than not, the "Yo" would be dropped. The verb "dije" communicates that it's the "yo" pronoun, so saying yo would probably be redundant. Grammatically correct, but not necessary and probably not used with fluent speakers.
The Chart!
Can you explain about the usage of "decía"
I heard some people in Spain says "He dicho" as I said, what's the different?

Hi ، would it be possible for you to make me understand what is the difference between decir me and diga me ؟ thanks in advance

@TheLanguageTutor
4 жыл бұрын
The best way is to just learn that it's a stem-changer when you learn the verb. Also, if you practice it regularly, it will only sound right to you a certain way.
what about the preterit vs imperfect?
@gerlautamr.656
4 жыл бұрын
Hi, in the imperfect it would be: (Yo) decía (Tú) decías (Él, Ella, Usted) decía (Nosotros) decíamos (Vosotros) decíais (Ustedes) decían (Ellos) decían
Why do you refer to the nosostros section in the chart as being the Spanish version?

could you step a little away from just grammar lessons but put your lessons more in context (short stories perhaps?) btw I love the way you are pronouncing/articulating really "loud and clear" Thanks for all the good work.
