Jajajaja🤣😂
As a gringo sitting at a restaurant in Barcelona, this is exactly what I’ve been struggling with feeling like I’ve forgotten all the Spanish I have learned. It’s so easy for me to read and decipher text but understanding someone speaking quickly is really frustrating because I feel disrespectful not understanding them when I truly am trying. Usually it’s just one word that I don’t understand and then I get thrown off listening to the rest. By the time I’ve processed it the person had already spoken 10 more words, which even if I knew I didn’t catch because I was stuck on that first confusing word. Sometime The way that I mumble in English often.... I’m sure Spanish speakers would have the same difficulties hearing me. Thanks for the renewed confidence in learning, glad to know someone else has been challenged by this as well.
I smiled while reading your post because I have the same problem sometimes. But that can even happen in one's own language.
Don't stress your mind, I'm a spanish native speaker and even for us it could be difficult to understand sometimes, spanish speakers speak faster than english speakers, sometimes we tend to ignore parts of the speech when we consider someone has a bad pronunciation but we take the last words as reference, other thing could be that spanish language has a rhythm that you have to get used to, listen to the vowels carefully, not to the consonants. watch soaps operas, they exaggerate the pronunciation of the vowels.
by the way,,, I'm a english learner from mexico, If someone wants to practise with a native, I'm charmed to help.
Thanks for the encouragement! I'm sure the others will really appreciate it! And your English is awesome! Keep it up! Do you want me to announce that you are available to practice with others on one of my videos?
Wow thanks for the comment, and yes I'd love to, that would be awesome, I need someone to practise.
I suscribe to your channel ( in spite of knowing spanish haha).
Yo necesito ayuda
Podria ayudarte si quieres :) tu podrias ayudarme con mi ingles, ¿Que dices?

2 things: UA-cam allows you to play videos at faster and slower speeds. Slow those speakers down and then build back up to "regular speed". As for subtitles, I only use Spanish subtitles, never the English. It can also help to watch something in Spanish you already know very well. Great videos.
Very good idea!!!
This is clever! Thank you!
This is going to help me so much !!! Gracias
Some Netflix shows do, also.
Been a Spanish speaker for most of my adult life. I am half Cuban and half Jamaican. However, like you, I had to learn Spanish from scratch. I would describe myself as fairly proficient, meaning I’m about 75% versed in the language, and can easily strike up a conversation with most native Spanish speakers and hold my own. But I will confess that my ears could do with some more training. I really appreciate what you’re doing and the humorous way n which you do it. I can relate to your material, and find it very helpful. If I were as clever as you I’d probably be doing the same thing. 😂 Keep it coming, you’ve found a very nice nitch.
I've been taking up Spanish classes since high-school and im getting my BA degree with a minor in Spanish. Its always been so hard for me to understand Spanish speakers when they speak so fast or Spanish singers who sing so fast and it is important to keep in mind that each Spanish speaking country has their own slang and different dialogoue and words that they use. I've been learning Spanish for 13 years and it makes me sad that I still have trouble understanding when it comes to listening to someone speak Spanish so fast and that im not fluent. I know how to read and write most Spanish. But listening and understanding and speaking it very fast are still my challenges but im just gonna apply myself much more and see where it takes me.
Hahahah. That's like when you are learning English for the first time and you listen to Eminen and you say: No way! I will never learn it!
My ear isn't even trained for English. I just need help
I think for me pronunciation is the most challenging. I can read Spanish better than when I started over a few months back. I can pray in Spanish, but not quite by memory yet. Thank you fir the video.
I have been watching your videos for a while, I was born and raised in Florida, moved to Fort Lauderdale 20 years ago, stayed there for four years, and then lived in South Beach Miami, I appreciate your videos a lot. My Spanish is ok, but I feel like I should understand more than I do
That was good and very helpful. Thank you. I think the biggest barrier to fluency in Spanish is the speed at which many natives speak. It's like watching a Nascar race from the front row sometimes.
I've done the rewinding over and over trying to pick out words and
phrases so much that it starts to feel like one of those scenes in a
detective movie where the detective is replaying part of a recording
over and over looking for clues ...lol
So glad someone made a video about this!
Yo igual 😂😂
Craig David is teaching me fast Spanish
I feel subtitles are great the first time you watch something. You can write the words and phrases you don't know, but after than you gotta give them up
1:18 I feel your pain, I’m naturally a fast English speaker too
You speak Spanish really good....
What is the comedian name ?
I need to stop watching your videos and just practice. You’re awesome bro!
i got the gist but yeah that was un poco rápido also what i do sometimes when watchin dominican channels is slow the video down from normal also i have a book called Quick Guide To Dominican Spanish which helps alot with slang and certain frases used in the DR and other Caribbean Countries ect..
Lewis CC1 Baarnes. That is a good way to figure out what is being said. The only problem is that it doesn't help you to train your ear for natives that go 100 words per millisecond lol. but I did think about mentioning that in my video at first. I never tried it though because I wanted the full speed.
Rickie Walls no but once i know what is being said then i put the video back to normal and keep playing it until i have it down
Lewis CC1 Baarnes. That can be pretty effective I suppose for beginners. I have to keep in mind that I was and intermediate when I started this method
Rickie Walls i started bout 3-4months ago now but sometimes i have to do it but im finding that i do it less and less which is the main thing
It's nice if you can understand what the guy might be singing about but I could also say that as a native English speaker it can be very difficult to pick up on what is being said eveb in English speaking music, especially when the lyrics are uber fast. Personally I think music is a wonderful way to learn vocabulary and it can really help to feel connected to the language. However, if you really want to train your ear to the spoken language, aside from conversing with speakers of your desired language, the radio is a fantastic method - you are forced to really tune in to what is being discussed whilst also learning vocabulary across a diversity of subject matter. You also learn how people communicate with each other, especially if there is a debate going on. This is going to be very useful in its application in real world situations
Great tip! I am a lover of comedy, so this is genius. Hadn't even crossed my mind. I have the hardest time understanding the language and I see this being really, REALLY helpful. Nice vid!
Thanks for checking it out. Make sure to check out my subtitles video too. I think this video and that one go hand and hand. I'm glad that i could give some helpful advice. My methods consist of having fun while learning. That will make it feel like you're not even having to work hard. If you ever have questions, let me know : ) God bless.
Whenever you don't understand a language, it always sounds fast. Spanish seems fast, because of the frequency of consonants coming at you. Hard sounds. English has more vowel pauses, so it "seems" slower, but it really isn't. The amount of data being expressed within a given period of time is fairly constant among all languages. It is the perception of speed that varies. Japanese is considered the "fastest" language. Listen to it being spoken. Again, the hard, consonant sounds are very apparent, which catch the listeners' attentions. French seems "slow", again because of the frequency of softer sounds. Anyway, this is my observation.
Interesting observation
As a native speaker I didn't even understand what did the tornado guy said.
I edit the speed. Once I understand what's going on, I return to normal speed.
I have been studying for a year now, and the more I learn the more I harder it gets for me. There are NO Spanish speaking people where I live tampoco. Anywho, it is videos like this that help me feel more inspired to keep going even if it takes me 10years:)
Keep up the good work. I just moved to Miami because I got a great job opportunity and I'm using it so much here! I love it!!! I'm going to be a flight attendant so I'll get to use it in the counties that i visit too. I'm excited!
I needed this video! My moms family is from Puerto Rico but I’ve never learned Spanish so I decided to start teaching myself. I try talking with my family but some of my family make it so hard to converse with them because they talk SO fast. No lie, my aunts talks just like the guy in the rap song and it’s confusing and discouraging. I’ve never tried this technique but I will.
You'll get the hang of it. Spanish is the 2nd fastest language in the world, so don't get discouraged. If I can catch it, you can too! Keep trying. God bless
Saludos, mi loco. KLK? La verdad, que los video’ tuyo salen bacano’. Nomas falta el video enseñando la jerga de DR y ya, lol! Siga adelante, men. 👌🏽
Treyshon00 ¿Klok Manín? Gracias por tus palabras jaja . y de hecho, ese vídeo viene pronto bro. stay tuned.
Treyshon
Gracious! Es Bueno que tu Estes tiempo de ayudando mi habla Espanol.
"Gracias, es bueno que estés pasando tiempo para ayudarme a mejorar mi español" así lo diría yo..
Y no hay de qué. A mi me encanta lo que hago para ustedes.
Just about the English thing-I talk really fast in English too. I've moved states for uni, & it was funny how many people told me to slow down when I spoke after I moved
I hated that growing up. Everyone talk about showing down, but my tongue said no! Lol
What has been helping me a lot with training my ears is an app known as Gritty Spanish. It is phenomenal. It also has transcripts where you see what they are saying in Spanish, as well as the English translation. I think it helps a lot and I also think Subtitles are phenomenal. You have to first train your eyes to have an idea of what is being said. Seeing does help with the pronunciation. At least for a start. Muchísimas gracias por estos videos increíbles. Me están ayudando mucho! Sigue así! No puedo esperar para llegar a su nivel.
Yes, After this video, I made a video talking about the benefits of subtitles. There is some truth with what you say, but I don't believe that you have to see it exactly to train your ears. It can help some people though. Just depends on what type of learner you are I suppose. Y Gracias a ti por tu apoyo! Sigue pa' lante, Seguro que llegaras si sigues por ese camino.
Thank you for the Gritty Spanish app recommendation!
I practice karaoke in Spanish. Learning how to sing "Despacito was so helpful in terms of me learning how to speak and understand. Listening to rap because it's emphasis on lyrics.
Also, I turn the volume up. Loud noises are more memorable.
Never heard of that. That actually sound very interesting!
That is actually a good way to learn. I started with music. That's why I think my accent is so crisp. Good work man.
People forget that fun and learning are really actually different terms for the same thing, jajaja
Thanks!
Some good advice here but as usual the trick is like life if you want to learn and progress. No shortcuts you got to do the work like he says and put in the hours. When some lovely Spanish woman says Hola and you respond in Spanish you will say oh yes it was worth it !!! :) My wife didn't see this comment ! :) Yes she will beat me.
English is really transverse you can really speak English fast or really slow
813ENTERTAINED you can speak it fast, but many people don't like that.
I speak English fast naturally and have to repeat myself alot lol
Great. Video
Hola. Gracias por haciendo tus videos. Me ayudan mucho. me gusta subtitulo por que alguna veces me ayuda averiguir otros maneras decir y usar palabras o frases pero a veces me confunde
You, sir, are a brilliant film maker.
I'm a native Spanish speaker and I had no idea what those guys were saying
im from spain & i can learn english thanks your videos, good job¡¡¡
Awesome! Thank you! I will post mor content for those like you!
Gracias, esto es muy útil.
Gracias a tí!
Buen consejo...Siempre 👍🏼
Fantastic content, great advice imma apply rn. But question, do you know any strictly clean comedians?
Thank you for your video.
I'm a native Spanish-speaker and I have NO clue what he said. 😂
Going to give this more of a try since I never really tried this method too much...unfortunately I've been stuck at the level where I can get the basic gist of things and understand the context but I can't understand everything still. Stand up comedy has got to be the biggest proof because I understand the overall context but don't get the jokes whatsoever (Makes me feel kind of dumb not going to lie). Maybe one day I can actually watch something in Spanish without subtitles but my hope has been declining day by day. I just ran into your videos so I will use your methods to help me. Thanks for the info, I still haven't given up yet.
I know I’m late to this video but I like lingopie for this. You can slow it down all the time to 50% (It gets distorted if you slow it too much) and you can click for a definition on screen. The translations are always perfect, but it’s not really for beginners anyway.
Dude please give me tips because I’m like 25% fluent in French but I live on the west coast and learning Spanish is confusing me. Weird thing is if I read Spanish I pronounce everything mostly correct, I just don’t know what I’m reading.
I spent alot of time learning vocabulary words and still couldnt make complete sentences or understand the spoken langauge. I can read it fairly well but its so important to listen and hear how native speakers use the langauge. Like me you may have been pronouncing the words incorrectly so you cant understand the accent. I started watching spanish tv shows alot and ive made huge strides in my comprehension. Watch them with the english subtitles and also watch them with the spanish subtitles. You'll start to notice you see and hear alot of the same words over and over. Write those words down and look up the translations for them. Its helping me learn actual conversational spanish that is spoken in everyday normal conversation instead of me filling my head with unnecessary vocab. You should watch a series called extra..and a series called destinos..also you can slow the speed down on you tube to help you understand better..those are some of my tips..bueno suerte! Good luck!
I got to 3.26 and thought "Why not just look up the lyrics ?
heeyy hii, I'm a native spanish speaker, and well I'm trying to sound like a english native speaker, it's too difficult, I'm gonna die:(
Thank you
Honestly I've never had a native speaker even bat an eye when I ask them to slow it down for me. I think they just get it haha
What song was he playing?
I also used Netflix stand ups to learn other languages in the same way. Watching typical movies and shows people speak in a very “TV” rhythm and fashion just like they do in English.
When you hear someone talking like someone from tv- they sound unnatural- well to me they do, so I try to find things were people speak generally how they would on the streets - stand ups 👍
I've been learning spanish on and off for a year, and every time i quit, its always because I cant understand people
Where can I buy a t-shirt like yours, Man? Please tell me.
I understand fast spanish...slug slow is not my flow...lol I love your vids!! Feliz Christma'!
Plzz make video on uses of ' se ' in Spanish pllzzz this is a request
Sure will! thanks for watching!
There is😃
A cheat I use is to turn on caso cerrado and turn the speed to 2x for like 5 mins then i slow it down to regular speed and that helps ALOT!!!
There are some very good Panamanian Comedy vids on youtube
1socaholic what are their names? I'll be sure to share them sometime.
Great tips, thanks
Yeah, like generally speaking, if you listen to a rapper like Twista, even if you speak English some of his lines are hard to understand. But this happens all the time. I just realized that when people speak slow Spanish I understand it. I see now that most of them, especially Latin American ones just talk fast. I'm going to learn how to talk faster in general now lol. I just talk too slow.
El español caribeño es así aún los nativos tenemos problemas para entender lo q dicen a y los chilenos no olvidemos a los chiles es como...!?? Q dijo..
Wow..Im from Spain and couldnt understand a single word :)
jajaja. Yes Dominican spanish is hard when it's spoken fast.
Saludos desde Tampa FL
Gracias! Tengo celos, porque quiero vivir en Florida jaja. Saludos, mano
Rickie Walls welcome anytime
Which is the proper Spanish to learn? Or it's pretty much the same?
What is your artist name?
I've been watching cartoons I loved as a kid in Spanish such as He-man and Scooby-Doo. I can pick out some Spanish words but not where I want to be yet
Subtitles help me begin to learn the Cadence or flow of speech. If I listen then repeat I can sometimes get the words in. Plus I realized that some of the el de etc lose distinction. Much like english in casual style in my culture.
Thanks for this information. What’s the name of this song ?
Thanks so much for this video!
Hey no problem at all! Thanks for watching!

I want to put together a music playlist, but I want to make sure I'm learning Mexican Spanish and not Caribbean, Murcian or any other version of spanish. Are there any artist you would recommend? I'm also learning on my own so forgive me if this question is kind of elementary. lol
Messia klk de lo mío, ¿no te acuerdas de mí?
Messia (greeting) you’re mine, don’t you remember me?
Plenti Liriciso ridiculously fast underground Puerto rican rapper
The Spanish comedian , I caught the words, but i didn't know all the vocabulary. I guess i'm not at the point of being able to get a joke in Spanish, but thanks for the tips.
What is the song called?
I´m Dominican born and raised and I couldn´t understand what that dude said either...I think I heard "de lo mío" and "klok" but barely. We speak fast and cut words but that is just and exaggeration o.o
Gracias amigo
I’m both dont know grammar or have my ears trained. Since Spanish is my second language
How can I do this with native speakers in real life?
I mentioned in the video that you people don't really repeat themselves many times, so this drill should be done on your own. This will help you to get accustomed to it, so that way you can understand them all.
I have Spanish B1.2. now and tried watching Casa de papel in Spanish... yeah, no. I would have understood equally as much if I had been watching the Chinese dub.
I feel like I am doing quite well in speaking and reading, but listening seems impossible.
Don't worry, Spanish from Spain is often weird. For example they say: "Me cago en la leche", which means they poop on the milk. Sometimes I don't understand what they say either. My gf is from Spain and I'm from Mexico, we often repeat ourselves to get what we said.
Thank You!!!
How do I go about learning Dominican Spanish when most Spanish learning resources are Mexican or Spain Spanish?
Your answer lies in this video that I posted a couple weeks ago. ua-cam.com/video/JINdJzUNnMQ/v-deo.html
@ muchas gracias, amigo.
I also like to listen to Spanish radio stations where they interview guests. They speak more clearly and not so fast. I like RNE.
nunca he notado que hablan menos rápido. wow. interesante. ahora voy a prestar atención jaja.
Can I become student
El español es mi lengua madre, y aún así no entendí nada cuando cantó rápido.
that was a funny intro. got my attention
I learned alot of my spanish from listening to Wisin y Yandel, so i had to learn to fast spanish rather quickly
Have you seen Carlos Ballarta on Netflix? He's from Mexico
My big problem is that I really struggle to understand the español spoken on tv ,on Narcos for example. Now, Spanish conversations elsewhere at any speed are no problem ! Beats me.
i must just be so used to hearing spaniards talk, bc i was p sure my mans was just spewing word vomit at rapid speed bc i only caught a few words but understood it when you went through it lmao. then again im like that with rap in english as well, sounds cool but have no clue whats going on lol
Is it possible to become fluent permanently?
If you're constantly speaking the language, then yeah you can
Mesia is from dominican republic jajaja you're mention our idioms de lo mio is the same , you are my real friend
Klk= hi/hello
fr my wela be speakin fast 💀
Hey Ricky, Im tryng to learn as fast as i can, and its going well since ive lived in my island puerto rico for a while, but its still spotty. Should i spend all my time only living in spanish till i have to use english?
That's what I did. I always recommend authentic experience over classes any day. I didn't move countries, but I refused to speak English if I didn't have to.
When someone straight from the old country speaks to you: ?
You with your head hurting:
I don't really know right now only by watching dani's comedy videos can automatically make you give on learning Spanish cuz he speaks too fast and I never understand.... But wait a sec is it the highest speed in speaking Spanish?
“Nah, that can’t be spanish” Lmfao!!!
Hey there is somebody here Who has english as native language i would like to know 'cause im learning english for me would be a pleasure im a latin person
I'm a spanish native speaker and I don't understand either
Can you leave the link to the song please
Thanks for taking the exams, and yes I will leave the link once I find it again haha.
I need an immemse amount of help in this area of me learning.
Christian Craig it'll happen for you with persistence and time 👍😁
