You're the best!!
how tf did you pin your comment on technos stream
I got a Spanish ad-
Yo creo que el iso el "examen" antes del video y por eso tiene todas correctas
Porque se puede ver que el ha editado el video
Saw the title so I went on Duolingo and I only got 2 wrong during the placement test, I'd only taken about a semester of it during 2019, haven't a clue how I actually remember any of it I had one hell of a Spanish teacher I guess.
A lot of people complain about the different voices on Duolingo but I actually like them because it helps you listen to a variety of different voices, pitches, speeds and moods etc When I practice my listening skills in other languages I would get so used to certain speakers that when I heard a completely new speaker I would have trouble understanding them because I'm not used to the way they talk xD
true, also what language(s) are you learning?
Variety is key, different voices in language learning is the best choice indeed
@@stahl7886 In the japanese course the new voices pronounce the sylabbles and the words wrongly. So at least they aren't good for japanese.
@@mcmaker2033 hm yeah, if they’re not even correct how will that be helpful.
Well I'm learning French in school and it wasn't registering my pronounciation so I tried to use google voice and it said wrong pronounciation
My native language is spanish and guys, he has the best spanish i have ever heard in a native english person
I appreciate that so much! :)
Yo creo lo mismo pero también le sale buenísimo su acento mexicano
@@stefanodelucchi7229 no hablo espanol lo siento

Yo si hablo fluento Ingles y español pero no se como poner las palabras en texto tan bien
Hey Nate, if you make a profile and scroll all the way down, there is the “ultimate“ test you can take which is much harder and if you complete that test you basically complete the whole course and you get the Duolingo trophy, it also takes about 5-10 minutes just like this one
What makes the ultimate test difficult is that they want you to translate each sentence one particular way. They allow very little variation.
Yeeee but they use too many Mexican expressions there, I did it as a non-Mexican native Spanish speaker, I understood the sentences, but how to translate them into proper English?!?!?
@@juanjosesierramacias1255 I've never had any trouble while unlocking the last course in Duolingo, in both ways (Spanish - English and vice versa) and Spanish is my native language
As a spanish speaker i really liked your accent haha, and you're really good explaining every word and sentence
Se nota que eres muy bueno en el español!
Thank you! 😃
@@SpanishWithNate. mis webos xD
@@SpanishWithNate. sorry for said that, but i want know if you get that means xD
@@QuicklyMan i feel like thats more Mexican or like Spanish from España. So if they dont speak those, they wont know. As a Spanish speaker, idek what it means.
@@alejandrarivera5352 i think he know that means, he know “coger” means in latam bro lol
Who could have guessed someone who can speak Spanish, can actually speak Spanish!
Well, there can be a lot of ambiguity in languages. Duolingo's own forums is filled with natives arguing over how something is supposed to be said, depending on their regional preferences, multiple accepted grammar variations and so on.
I don't know enough Spanish to comment on the Spanish lessons on Duolingo, but yeah, for some other languages even natives can't pass all the lessons on first attempt because some lessons might expect a very rigid, formal, book correct response that nobody would actually use in real life. And vice versa. Sometimes they use an idiom, or some cultural refence to create a rather incorrect way of saying something.
@@Archangel591 Absolutely, I actually 'cause of this tried my native language on duolingo and it's weird. Even I made so many mistakes that actually doesn't make sense.
Pues yo soy latino y se hablar Español xd
omg i didnt know that 😰 /j
Not me bro, this was insane.
Spanish differences entre países is so confusing. This past summer I asked a waiter in CDMX si tenía un pitillo… porque así lo aprendí de mi familia venezolana. I swear to god the look he gave me, my mexican friend had to save me 😂😂😂
Hahaha omg! 🤣🤣 what did the waiter say?
Ooops that means something different there 😩😩😩😩
In almost every Spanish-speaking country, a drinking straw has a different name. No other object has so many names.
@@instasingingvids3529 If you want to eat papaya in Cuba, you have to ask for fruta bomba. 'Papaya' and also 'bollo' refer to something else in Cuba.
So many different ways to say straw I just go with popote
Me alegra que muchas personas estén aprendiendo español siento un gran respeto por las personas que lo hablan en verdad es muy difícil al igual que varios idiomas pero cada día uno aprende una palabra nueva.
Así es. Los idiomas han sido parte de mi vida desde mi niñez y tengo el privilegio de hablar y escribir en español, una de las lenguas romances más bellas. Saludos desde Brasil.
I'm a Spanish IV student, and I also got 100%! I'm on my sixtieth day of Duolingo Spanish (and Romanian) at the moment, and I'm proud of myself for getting everything here right!
Edit: I just looked back at my Spanish course, and I have 40 skills unlocked. That's not half bad!
Que onda wacho jugamos fulbito o te cagas ?
@@fistcuff639 No entendió xd.
Okay but Nathan's laugh when he read «Cogimos».
He went: 😈🔥
In most of Latin America, "Quiero cogerte" means, "I want to grab you." It is a bad word in México.
Makes me wonder how Colgate toothpaste gets sold there.
@@jamespyle777 Although the spellings may appear similar, the pronunciations are distinctly different, which is why no one confuses the two words.
@@jamespyle777 That's actually very funny, Because, even if Colgate doesn't sound like cogimos, It Does sound like the verb Hang, and with the sound of "Te" next to "Colga", sounds like "Hang yourself"
@@jamespyle777 Trust me, we do have memes of dentists hanging themselves with those in hand
I think it could be fun to do this concept but with mutually intelligible languages with Spanish and see how far you can fake it. So the Portuguese and Italian placement tests.
I'm South American and love to fake the italian Duolingo
I'm learning Portuguese with Duo and am in unit 2 so when I tried the spanish course it has come soooo easy to me. Obviously, they aren't exactly the same. But they are so close that if you have one the other will come pretty easily.
Soy mexicana y este video me hizo cuestionarme mi existencia y lo dificil que es en realidad el español, es decir entendia lo que estaba diciendo pero igual se me hacia muy dificil, mis respetos para quienes aprendieron español sin que esta fuera su lengua materna.
el español es facil pero con los 854389534573489 dialectos que hay es casi imposible
Na, el español en si es bastante facil e intuitivo. Otra cosas son los dialectos que no tienen nada que ver con saber habalar español
El español en general es fácil y se puede aprender en menos de 1 año...
Comparado al chino... (Mis padres són inmigrantes chinos)
El español es de los idiomas más fáciles de aprender, solo toma 500 horas aprenderlo
Hablas muy bien español, yo hablo español de España aunque entendí cuando estabas por la palabra "cogimos".
Seguro que tus estudiantes tendrán un buen futuro con el español, que tenga un buen día si lees esto :)
Yo soy mexicano e hice el examen de español....
Me salió 92% :v
jajaja lo siento amigo Joel!!
Probablemente sea porque ahí enseñan español de España
@@martinmella6841 es lo mismo
@@camilarivera4739 no,en latinoamerica dicen otras cosas x sus dialectos
@@camilarivera4739 no exactamente, en LATAM tenemos distintas expresiones, como lo de "coger" por ejemplo. :/
My native language is welsh but I grew up using mostly English so I'd say English is my first language. I learned Chinese when I was 12, im learning Spanish now and you giving a small explanation on things has made things click. J finally understand them
Where dou you learned to talk Spanish like that! Im impressed by your perfect Mexican accent! It’s pretty cool. Yo estoy aprendiendo inglés creo que lo mas complicado son los acentos de los hablantes nativos! Saludos desde San Luis Potosí
He’s mexican
@@FediJone no
8:50 thank god you gave that explanation. I was over here thinking "You did what?????" Lmao

Yo aprendí español cuando tenia 3 y me encanta verte.
this was surprisingly basic and easy i took 5 yrs of spanish and have been out of hs for 2 years almost still easy af
A child could do this test, it's pointlessly easy.
I like the assent of his voice when speaking as neither too sharp nor too deep speaks Spanish perfectly
The thing is, is Duo teaches you the Spanish of Spain. When I tried to apply my Spanish knowledge to coworkers who are Spanish, they sometimes laughed or corrected me. Thats because my coworkers are Guatemalan, Puerto Rican and Mexican. For instance, I used "enojado" for angry and my coworker asked me what I was talking about, then told me the right thing to say was "enfadado". Also, early into Spanish I was having a laugh with them because "comprendo" isn't something often used. He told me verbatim "only gringos say comprendo", Its "entiendo"." Which is another good one to know. And my favorite is Duo teaches you say "sombrero" for hat, that one still confuses me. Because doing simple searches doesn't help, but the Spanish people I know say something else and find it funny to say sombrero because what a sombrero actually is culturally. Also also, putting "Yo or tu" at the beginning of everything you say makes you sound not as good and not as natural. Saying "no sey" is better than "yo no sey"
wow, your Spanish is perfect and your pronunciation is almost native, such a hard work! I suppose you must've been closely immersed in the Mexican culture, because you can even imitate the cadency of their accent, which is amazing. It's so cool to see someone so interested in your own language, I love English too hahahaha saludos desde España! :)
Im spanish but have lived in saudi arabia and gone to an american school since i was 3 so both english are spanish are natural for me and i have no accent so it was fun watching this vid!
Gracias a ti pude ver lo difícil y complicado que puede llegar a ser el español 😸
Nate, I am from Argentina and your Spanish Is very Good! Saludos.
8:40 lol learned this at my old work. Coger means follar in some places so you have to say agarrar
Soy de España y me ha extrañado mucho que para decir “next week”, han dicho “la próxima semana”, pq aquí se dice “la semana que viene”. Muy curioso lo de los diferentes dialectos del español :)
Es como cuando dijo the refrigerator uds dicen frigorifico otros paises la nevera u la heladera y otros paises mas comun como el refrigerador.

You just gave the best definition of reflexive verbs
So glad to hear that!
my first language is spanish and this guys accent and pronunciation is perfect :0
I appreciate your effort to learn Spanish it's not so easy and you have a very good Spanish, felicidades!
your English is better than the native speakers for real , love you man :)
Nate : Gets 100%
Duolingo : *Unlocked 25% of the course*
Wow pls do a series of these for a quick review of Spanish grammar concepts.
Amo tu acento, 😭😭.
My god, hearing an English speaker have a fluid Spanish accent really gives me life.
¡Buen video!
Este video me apareció en recomendados y no me arrepiento de verlo
To me it sounds like Duolingo characters sound like a Hollywood movie style of an Italian accent when they speak Spanish, I've noticed it with Google translate too.
Failing the test would result in the duolingo holding your family hostage
true, thank goodness I didn't fail :')
Man, spanish is my native language and I've never heard a better pronunciation from a foreign. Keep it up bro.
8:42 yes Probably the best translation of take is "tomar" because the spanish speakers of Spain will understand you and the latino americans Will not go crazy 🤣
As a latín american, I can say you got everything right
Llevo 8 meses aprendiendo español y la verdad es que es muy bueno. También pasé la prueba más dura de Duolingo. ¡Lo superé! Puedo decir que no te hace fluido, solo el comienzo. ¿Cual es tu opinion?
You’re very good at explaining! Even though i can understand a lot of what’s in the video, you helped me recognise patterns and exactly why sentences are structured the way that they are.
Thank you so much! I'm glad it was helpful :)
1:26 Easy trick to remember the noun goes right after the article: you just need to remember the noun goes right after the article.
Hey Nate! I have been learning Spanish for the past three years but I'm not fluent yet. Do you have any piece of advice for me?
I have been learning Spanish for 15 years. Fluency is subjective, just keep practicing. What helped me was real life practice with native speakers as opposed to studying it. Feel free to reach out to me if you need more help
Hi I've learned English by immersing myself in the language, i think that's the fastest way to get pretty good at that, maybe u should try to talk in Spanish with people in internet too
U can try to talk to yourself in ur head all day it can helps a little bit
Nate: gets 99% for no reason

I'm learning Spanish from a profesor de España, what can I use instead of coger for to take? I live in Atlanta and there are lot of Mexicanos y Guatemetecans here, please don't want to accidentally offend anyone
You can use verbs like: recoger or agarrar :)
@@SpanishWithNate. thank you, look forward to your videos every week!
T. Johnson Usted aprende español con un profesor de España, eso es bueno, pero hay inconvenientes, porque los españoles usan un lenguaje muy elegante con palabras muy rebuscadas y tienen un marcado acento con las letras S, C y Z. En cambio los mexicanos como los guatemaltecos tienen un español rústico nada elegante un español propio de gente muy ordinaria como de campesinos. Depende de ti donde quieres practicar tu español.
Caribbean Spanish uses coger. We don't see it as a sexual innuendo in any way. Even if you used coger with Mexicans they won't be offended, though they make have some fun at your expense.
Happy learning :).
That one in the example sounded more like “llevar” (to take with you). You can say tomar (to take, also to drink), or agarrar (to grab). Coger is not an innuendo in every country in Latam, only in very few of them. They’ll still understand what you mean and won’t make fun if it unless they’re 13.
I'm bilingual in French and English and knowing French helps a lot. Like there's so many words in Spanish that i understand because they sound french
7:31 Hey Nate, I'm spanish but I talk English and I'm 11 years old. In this moment of the video you say that ''siéntese'' is formal, but now almost nobody uses that, inclusive your teachers or unknown people, everybody uses ''siéntate'' beacose now i'ts considrated like old, but there still adults (no more children that have my age) that uses that. I hope it was helpful for people that are learning my language and if natives can correct my mistakes I will be very thankful.
Hola Nate, soy española pero hablo inglés y tengo 11 años. En este momento del vídeo dices que ''siéntese'' es formal, pero ya casi nadie se trata de usted, sino de tú, incluso a profesores o a personas desconocidas, porque ahora está considerado como ''viejo'' , pero todavía hay adultos (niños de mi edad no hay más) que usan eso. Espero que haya sido de ayuda para la gente que está aprendendo mi idioma y si nativos que lean esto pueden corregir mis errores estaría muy agradecida.
Hablo español y puedo decir que es muy buen profesor 👍👍
2:42 when Ur name's Carmen: 😚💅
I love how he’s been learning Spanish for 7 years and seems fluent. I’ve been learning Irish for 9 years and still can’t say basic things🥲
Don't be hard on yourself Irish is a hard language to master take it from me my grandad was fluent but the rest of us nope 😅 and I've lived in Ireland since I was two!
@@EmilyandRachel-fo9fv :)
He's decent, I wouldn't say he's fluent.
@@holliswilliams8426 he's fluent
8:27
That's the best part for those of us who speak Spanish 😂
As a person who naturally speaks Spanish and listening to someone who naturally speaks English, your Spanish is quite fluent
Me clicking on this knowing no spanish and learning mandarin in school: hmmm yess i agree
When I was younger I thought “sombrero” (“hat” in Spanish) was French.
Your Spanish it's Soo good
The tricky thing with this is, is that I was able to GUESS all the of the answers and I think I got only 1 of them incorrect. It doesn't ask you to form sentences by yourself, you just need to tap on some words. In my case that means I would have gotten to a level that does not at all represent my actual Spanish skill level.
I would hope Nate lol
Hahah me too!!
7:47 This is actually INCORRECT, the correct answer should be "Yo le estoy dando setenta pesos", because "Yo le doy setenta pesos" actually means "I give him seventy pesos".
No he was correct. It's the same in Spanish. You don't want to use ''estoy dando'' instead of ''doy'' without reason, as it sounds oddly exaggerated. I'm giving him seventy pesos is ''Le doy setenta pesos''. ''Le estoy dando setenta pesos'' sounds like ''I'm *giving* him seventy pesos OK? mmmmmm'', that just sounds weird if over-used in daily conversation.
Yo Aprendi a Hablar Varios Idiomas Pero mi Idioma Maternal es Español,Yo aprendi otros Idiomas como Aleman,Koreano y Italiano (translated to english) I learned to speak various languages but my maternal language is Spanish,I also learned other languages like German Korean and Italian.
Duolingo when I don’t do some thing “now I about to haunt youuu”
I'd be interested in watching teachers of various languages try and learn Icelandic lmao. Too bad online classes are scarce and hard to come by. Especially good ones. Because of our relatively small population and unique language, you can really only learn it best here.
I passed the last checkpoint in Italian, in French, in Portuguese (I don't speak Portuguese at all) in English, yet it took me so many tries to pass the Spanish last checkpoint, and that is my native language.
5:40
Something related to this in english that's hard for a lot of native speakers:
The difference between "me" and "myself," or "you" and "yourself" etc. You only use the latter when the subject is the same as the object.
Often people use "myself" to mean "me" when trying to sound formal, but if you use it in an interview and the interviewer knows how formal language actually works, they might just think you sound stupid.
"myself" is only used when you do something to yourself. "I gave myself a raise" (if only am I right?).
"They came to visit John and myself" while it will be understood, just isn't technically correct.
lol, im a native spanish speaker and I didnt know about "reflexive verbs" i mean i know but i didnt know it has a name XD
I got a mc Donald’s commercial in Spanish at the beginning of this video no joke
his voice will sound so soothing while speaking french
I'm practicing latin on duolingo rn, and the different voices are really helpful
Wow, que bien hablas español xd
Saludos desde México
1:20 native Spanish here; you CAN say "una verde chaqueta" but it's very formal and for poetry, like saying "a jacket green", it's incorrect, but you can YEET the rules if it's for artistic purposes.
Also, there are something that have different meaning is you put the adjective before or after the noun:
"Un hombre pobre no es lo mismo que un pobre hombre" means "A poor man (he has no money) it's not the same as a poor man (he is unlucky)" same words in English, different meaning in Spanish because the adjective goes before the noun in that concrete expression that you wouldn't know if you weren't a native.
How can he not know that? That's basic.
I'm taking this now. The Dracula sounding guy is so funny
Is it weird that I got a Spanish speaking apps add when I clicked on the video
I speak Spanish as well and I wanted to try taking the Duolingo test too but I hate it when Spanish is different, like y'know different meanings for different words. I didn't even know "bebe" meant to drink cuz we use "tomar" as drink. I think Duolingo uses Spanish from Spain? I'm not sure lol but yeah kinda learn some new meanings.
ay, ver a gente hablar español e ingles al mismo tiempo me reinicia el cerebro, akakq
Bro, I'm a Spanish speaker, and while I have Duolingo in English, I decided to unnecessarily take Spanish lessons. And yeah, is IMPOSSIBLE to get a 100% final score.
hi!, im a mexican kid of 12 years and im surprised of how you talk spanish, i know people that try to talk spanish but the R doesn't seem to get it right, so congratulations, BTW I also got a 100 in the english exam on dueling
Got a Spanish McDonald’s ad before this video lol
I like his smile

Everyone talking about the different voices and then there’s me who’s learning Swedish and there’s only only female voice for all characters lol
I wonder if filipinos can do this cuz we have almost 3 languages before “Filipino”, “English”, “A bit of Spanish”
I'm a native Spanish speaker and I swear, some of the words we use in my country and the ones here don't match up at all. We don't say "nevera", for example. We say "refri/refrigeradora". Or stuff like that, so I'd definitely, well... not struggle, but get whiplash.
I actually have duo lingo and I use it every morning
I klicked on the Video and got the Duolingo ad, i swear
Hispanohablantes: I N T E R E S A N T E
I had a Spanish learnung app ad before the video
Llevo cantidad de tiempo intentando aprender japonés en Duolingo usando el inglés como lengua hablante pero no me entero de nada :(
Hermoso pibe !!! Amo tu acento
If I had a spanish teacher I would show the teacher this
“Cogimos las entradas para el concierto” hay si estan en latinoamerica usen “compramos las entradas para el concierto” es mejor y no habrá malentendidos
It's strange- coger is profanity in much of Latin America, but it's used normally in Cuba!
My problem with Duolingo is the placement test is too easy and it starts me on lessons that are very basic
i don’t even take french but i feel like nate taught me more spanish in 10 minutes then the 2 years of french i took
