Thank you so much for your kind comment, dear Elena!! ❤ It is a huge support for Barsik!! 😊Cat lovers understand each other with just a glance 😊 It all started when cat Barsik just had to share his stories, and the Spanish touch added something extra! 😊😊😊
Dear Angelina! It's totally my pleasure! :) Thank you very much indeed for your kind, supportive comment, and for watching the story of cat Barsik! In the next episodes, I've slightly adjusted the video format and made it more complex linguistically, aiming to add more life and humor to the cartoon. I hope you'll enjoy the upcoming episodes too!:) Thank you very much again! :)
Dear Bhagi, ❤ welcome to the channel :) You can’t imagine how happy I am when I get a comment from someone who enjoyed the videos! 😊Wishing you all the best in your learning journey! Thank you so much for watching!❤🙏
Dear Abdulrahman Gamal! Heartfelt thanks for your kind words! They provide positive energy and are very valuable! When you release the next episode on the Internet, you don’t know whether people need it..whether they like it or not.. That’s why it’s so valuable to get a comment from a real person! I wanted to create a good story of the friendship and adventures of slightly naive but endlessly kind cat Barsik and the young man Pepe, bringing viewers back to the warm world of childhood.. add a little humor to make you laugh; add vocabulary to boost your knowledge of words and phrases; a fairly large portion of grammar, since this is the basis, knowing which, you yourselves will be able to compose words and sentences; finishing it all with many exercises to consolidate the new material. During the process, I repeatedly changed the video format in different episodes, trying to improve, wanting to make them as effective as possible. Thank you again for your kind support and I wish you every success in learning the language! :)
Thank you so, so much for your kind comment that inspires:) This channel is designed to expand your vocabulary, to explain grammar, to show popular Spanish idioms, or simply relax from stress and smile. It takes you into the naive world of the kind, smart cat Barsik :) It is intended for beginners level, as it does not contain any complex grammar (maybe in the future), but I also understand that it can become a little more difficult if a person is at the very beginning of the language journey.. Every person who comes here is treated like a good friend. From your post I realised, that you were looking for a lot of channels and I thought of one that might also interest you:) It is aimed at English speakers, the method used shows the parallels between English and Spanish, which makes the learning process fun and greatly facilitates memorisation. This is not an advertisement, as I don't even know the author of this channel called "Spanish with Paul", I just watched one of his videos. You might also want to check out this channel if you get interested. :) And cat Barsik will always be glad to see you here! :))
Hello dear Nastya! ❤ This is cat Barsik writing. 🐾🐾 You’re doing amazing! 😊 Thank you for practicing Spanish with me!🙏 I noticed a few little things that could be fixed. Let's brush them up a little together! :) 1. Este ES el gato Barsik (This IS cat Barsik) - Let’s not forget the word "es" here! :) Similar to English, we can’t omit the verb 'to be'. In Spanish, we need to use "es" to say "this is." Like here: This is my book - Este es mi libro (masculine). This is your house - Esta es tu casa (feminine). This is a flower - Esta es una flor (feminine). 2. Él va a comer - Just a tiny fix: "va" instead of "ba." The letters 'v' and 'b' sound very similar in Spanish, so it’s easy to mix them up! :) Also, please don't forget the accent on "Él." Without the accent, "el" means "the," but with the accent, "Él" means "he." For example: "Él es mi amigo." (He is my friend.) "El gato es negro." (The cat is black.) 3. Está en su casa. - Remember, "está" needs an accent too! :) Without it, "esta" means "this" (with stress on the first syllable), but with the accent, "está" means "is" (with the last syllable stressed). In Spanish, this small accent is called a tilde. It indicates the stressed syllable in a word and can even change the meaning. So, the tilde is important! :) Example: "Esta casa está en la Calle de Madrid." (This house is on Madrid Street.) See how the first "esta" means "this" and the second "está" means "is"? The tilde was also briefly explained in Episode 13, at minute 38:51:) It might seem confusing why we use different verbs for "to be" when saying: Este es el gato Barsik (This is cat Barsik) and Él está en su casa (He is at home). In English, we use "is," but in Spanish, we use es and está. The answer is that we have two different verbs in Spanish meaning "to be." - ser and estar. They simply have different uses. These were covered in more detail in episodes 13 and 14, but I won’t overload you with too much new information right now. :) 4. Tengo un paquete - This one is purr-fect! 🎉 Keep going, you’re doing great! ❤ And if you have any more questions, I’m always here to help (and to purr). ❤🐾 With love, Cat Barsik ❤🐾🐾
Why did the caller say "Buenos dias" on the phone when it is tarde (late)? Shouldn't the caller have said "Buenos trade"? Possibly they were living in another part of the world where it was still morning? Still an enjoyable series though and very educational.
Hello dear Charles! Thank you very much for your comment! Nice to hear from you! You are absolutely right in saying that when we are in the afternoon, it is better to say 'Buenas tardes' -´Good afternoon´. And when it gets dark, we should say ''Buenas noches'' - ''Good night''. And since we have already mentioned the topic, let us keep in mind, that both nouns ''tarde''- 'afternoon'' and ''noche'' - ´night´, are of feminine gender in Spanish, which has an automatic influence on the adjective ''good''. Instead of ''buenos'', as in ''buenos días'', we say ''buenAs tardes'' and ''buenAs noches''. Thank you very much for assisting and attempting to solve the question about the time difference between the caller and the cat Barsik:) I'm trying to improve videos as I can, and this was the first one. The attempt to avoid overloading it, and make it as simple as possible for viewers, may have resulted in some confusion, which I regret. Using "Buenos días" in a dialogue was meant more like a courteous general greeting to start a conversation and wish someone well, similar to saying "Good day!", without focusing very much on the time of day. The effort to keep things as easy as possible, also led to some confusion about the meaning of the phrase 'es tarde' - 'it is late', as a longer and more complex sentence would better explain the meaning and make it clear in context. It could be late in the afternoon. It could also be late to eat. The goal was to show the structure of the Spanish sentence and its resemblance to the English equivalent, 'es tarde' (it is late). Thank you for your attention to my videos! And special thanks for your kind words, they are dear to me!

Dear David, hello! Well done! Let's brush up on these phrases so you're entirely comfortable with them! 1. Este es Barsik - Este es el gato Barsik - both variants are correct:) 2. Va a comer - correct! 3. Es en su casa - Está en su casa. In this sentence, we talk about location. (Where is he? - He's at home). To make things easy, just remember, that in Spanish, when we want to say that something is located somewhere, we use the verb 'estar', that has the form 'está' when used in the third person singular (he, she) or with the polite form of the pronoun 'You' - 'Usted'. Es - (the one that you used), is the 3rd singular of the verb ´ser´. Both are translated into English as 'to be', although they have different purposes. This is a lengthy topic that demands a video, or several videos, to explain everything in detail. Please pay attention to the accentuation above the final letter 'a' (in está), which is called tilde. If it is lacking, the word changes the meaning, and becomes the feminine demonstrative pronoun 'this'. (Esta es mi casa. - This is my house.) 4. Tengo un paqueta - un paquete 5. ??? - Digame? - It is a polite way of saying 'Hello?' over the phone. When Barsik answers the phone, he says, "¿Digame?" Literally, you may translate it as 'Tell me?' in the polite form 'usted'. On the phone, you may hear the words 'sí?' or 'yes?' as a reply. The word 'Hola!' also can be used.:) 6. Is it mr Barsik - correct! Literally, ´Are you Mr Barsik?´, however, the meaning here is the same. 7. I am Barsik - also correct! By the way, here we use the verb ´ser´, that we spoke about in paragraph 3. In this sentence, we have it here in the 1rst singular (I am). 8. I come right away - correct! :) Well done, David! I wish you the best of luck in studying Spanish!:)
Dear Angelina! It's totally my pleasure! :) Thank you very much indeed for your kind, supportive comment, and for watching the story of cat Barsik!

Este es Barsik Va a comer Es en su casa Tengo un paqueta ??? is it mr Barsik I am Barsik i come right away
Dear David, hello! Well done!
Let's brush up on these phrases so you're entirely comfortable with them!
