I love these! It super helpful to hear you both explaining the actual structure of the sentences and the differences in how they’re formed in English and Spanish. When I hear Cynthia’s explanation of how certain sentences are formed eg “we are 6”, that word arrangement sticks in my head better and helps me to remember to rearrange the word order before I do a translation. Thanks both 🙏 PS Thanks for the reminder about Por and Para. I have my kindle copy and it’s so useful but as I jump back and forth a lot with quizzes and checking & repeating things, I definitely need a hard copy of this fabulous little book 😁
Hola, Soy MJ de India. He estado aprendiendo español durente tres meses. Saqué 10 de 12. Ahora puedo decir que he hecho el nivel básico de español. Muchas gracias.
Hola y muchas gracias por todas las clases. Yo soy de Brasil y estas clases para principiantes mi ayudan mucho con lá transicion entre los dos idiomas. En este test respondí todas las perguntas correctamente
I'm getting quite intermediate at Spanish and I got number 8 and 10 wrong, which I am very happy about! I will always study "beginner" level Spanish as there are always things I have missed.. and I want my Spanish to be built on a solid, super correct foundation. You guys are the best and thank you so much for this.. especially for including questions such as 8 and 10, which you "just have to know". Much love from Perth, Scotland!
Got 9/10. 7 was a big trick as I never thought “pleasing to you” and Duolingo and things you hear y tú more commonly. 10 is another as I never think “we are six and the last was careless think “de” was “of” instead of thinking of “from”.
Cynthia said "I get up at half past seven, but Gordon you get up at eight." When I first saw the question on screen, this is what I formed in my head. Had I pictured this being Cynthia telling her friend or someone else, then I'd have formed that she'd have said "I get up at 7:30 but Gordon rises at 8." So dependent in the meaning initially formed and understood in the mind of the reader, both answers A or B can be correct. Dependent on whether my mitigation is accepted I either got all 12 correct or 11 out of 12
Hi guys. I´m from the Uk living in Gran Canaria but originally from Newcastle. Gordon are you fro Newcastle? I absolutely love your show....I´m changing my nationality and can speak Spanish well but need to practise my grammar.
I have been studying Spanish for just a little over a year. I got 6 out of 12 correct. How does that land me as far as where I am in Spanish? I thought there was going to be a chart that told me the answer. I enjoyed the video. Thanks!
Mil gracias por el vídeo. Tengo una duda por favor. Question No. 3. Los cuadros no son muy grandes, pero son perfectos. Should not we use "sino" instead of "pero" in this sentence?
Los cuadros no son muy grandes, sino que son perfectos / Los cuadros no son muy grandes, sino perfectos. Pero también podemos usar 'pero' en el sentido de 'they're not X, but, hey, they're Y'. Cx
7/12 It's been almost 10 years since I studied, so I'm a bit shocked I didn't forget my grammar rules. Whereas I can barely remember any Japanese that I studied 4 years ago DX
Yes, if I say: But, Gordon, YOU get up at... If I'm talking directly to him, then, yes, it'd be 'you'. In this case, the only possible answer is 'se levanta', since I'm talking about him. :) Good question.

Hola, Karin. Gordon es de South Shields :) ¡Muchas gracias! Cx
Great vid. Is the book anywhere other than Amazon? I have so many probs with their deliveries I dont order from them
Desafortunadamente, no. Please, check in Google. Depending on where you are you get different results, Mary Cx
'''So this is a beginners test, so cynthia, what level would you say this is?'
"Beginners"
XD
Jajajajaja Vaya pregunta.
Yee, he puesto la diez, hoy! 😉
:) :)
Very interesting. Even though I scored 100%, there were a few Spanish words I had to look up as I am speaking Mexican Spanish.
Buen trabajo :)
I have been studying Spanish for just a little over a year. I got 6 out of 12 correct. How does that land me as far as where I am in Spanish? I thought there was going to be a chart that told me the answer. I enjoyed the video. Thanks!
Don't worry about the result! This is a test for fun and to see what areas we need to revise. It's not a definition of one's level. :)
I am pre-beginner!!
¡Bienvenida! Cx
Creo que la tienda es Liberty.

¡Buen resultado! Cx
Can the answer to question 9 be B if you were talking to gordon as a sort of critism of him getting up later than you ?
Yes, if I say: But, Gordon, YOU get up at... If I'm talking directly to him, then, yes, it'd be 'you'. In this case, the only possible answer is 'se levanta', since I'm talking about him. :) Good question.
12 out of 12
