    For me the best way to understand this complicated stuff:
    TO BE: two verbs in spanish
    i) Ser
    ii) Estar
    My recipe is:
    ---------------------------
    Number one verb "Ser" means a PERMANTENT condition
    Number two verb "Estar" means a TEMPORARY condition
    For example "how are you? " in spanish you are talking about a TEMPORARY condition you must say "¿cómo estás?" in this case. If you say "I'm a man" you are talking about a PERMANENT condition so you must say "Soy un hombre" NEVER "Estoy un hombre". Other example If I translate"I'm drunk" into spanish with "soy borracho" I mean a permanent condition I mean I'm an alcoholic because "soy" implies a PERMANENT SITUATION. But if I mean a temporary condition I'd say "estoy borracho", tomorrow I'll be handover and the day after tomorrow I'll feel ok again.

      Kris Jordan ooh! Wow. I would like to know Spain. Quiero probar la tortilla de patatas, paella, chicharro al chacolì y demás. I know there are many places to visit. Ronda, Figueres, Las Ramblas, La Concha, Marvella. I love España. And also I speak Russian as well.

      I am a native speaker of Spanish language and can tell what... I never think in that because i'm a native and to me is so easy don't think in this, to me is weirdest you see complicated because to me somethings of your language are complicated for example the use of another and other is so hard knows when use it.
      PS: Please don't kill me for the bad english.

      Cuz Ana actually wants to make us spanish speakers that can talk spanish freely and fluently (and she is a good person in general) - if she make her online classes good (which is the case with her) more people watch and she is making money that way, but if the teacher is at school, I mean not every teacher at school, but these htat are at schools have the opportunity to not teach good and to not care (not just the teachers that teach you languages every type of teacher have the opportunity to do such a thing...Is is good is another question) and still taking the same amount of money for doing basically nothing...Which I think is irresponsible btw
      When I think of it, it actually made sense 😂

    Ser is used to classify and identify permanent or lasting attributes. If the general rule isn´t specific enough for you, think of the acronym DOCTOR, which stands for Description, Occupation, Characteristic, Time, Origin, and Relationship.
    Estar is used to indicate temporary states and locations. If the general rule doesn´t suffice, think of the acronym PLACE, which stands for Position, Location, Action, Condition, and Emotion.

    • @cbsteffen
      @cbsteffen 7 років тому +20

      Because I am also an etymologist (meaning not just a linguist), I think of "ser" as the sedentary "to be" verb and "estar" as the "to be" verb about standing. Here's how I think of the DOCTOR acronym as of what would make "ser" sedentary:
      Description-whatever directly describes a noun "sits" as true by staying that way for at least a long, long time.
      Occupation-such a thing "sits" as for assigning someone a title.
      Characteristic-"sits" as part of someone or something.
      Time-time "sits" by always moving forward and never pausing or reversing.
      Origin-a beginning that now "sits" in the past.
      Relationship-This fact "sits" by remaining true and can't be changed if it's consanguinity (relationship via birth).
      Here's how I think of the PLACE acronym as of what "estar" has to do with standing:
      Position-such a thing typically means standing.
      Location-for a physical noun because an object stands in its location, and a person cannot remain in the same place forever, although he or she might sit there for a while.
      Action-such a thing "stands" while being done.
      Condition-this "stands" in someone or something currently and doesn't directly describe the noun.
      Emotion-how someone feels for a seriously known limited time "stands" in the person's mind by not remaining there for more than a few days.

    Spanish is a beautiful language, yet it gets hard sometimes while learning verbs and conjugations. I'm Mexican and I speak Spanish, but I relate the Spanish learning process to my experience in learning French; they're so much alike.
    And just to help others to keep thing clear, there are a lot of differences between Spanish in each country. An easy example is the pronoun "vosotros" used in Spain, which in Latin America is "Ustedes". I would highly recommend you to learn Spanish from any country and later focus on a specific country, so you can learn all the idiomatic expressions and the grammar changes.
    Very good video by the way! If I had to learn spanish as a second language I would totally use it.
    PD: I wrote this in English so most people can understand it. :)

      El acento neutro no es propio de ningún país compadre, todos hablan con acento y es obvio que no lo notes en ti mismo.
      Cuando se habla de forma culta, en una reunión, en los noticieros, dando clases en universidad, por ej. se busca un hablar más neutro y en éstos casos incluso los chilenos tienen acento neutro. Pero en el diario vivir, en ningún país se habla sin acento.

    I learned that for SER you use the acronym DOCTOR - Description, Occupation, Characteristic, Time/Date,Origin, Relationship. For ESTAR use the acronym PLACE - Position, Location, Action, Condition, Emotion

    • @AndreaPhillips5
      @AndreaPhillips5 10 років тому +2

      Yes! That is so helpful.
      And, for those like myself (lol) who need additional help remembering the words each letter of the acronyms stand for, one can think about the fact that one usually wants to find 'a doctor with good qualities' (or 'a quality doctor) to help one remember that ser/DOCTOR = qualities... and that one usually wants to visit or own 'a place that is in good condition' to help one remember that estar/PLACE = condition or essence ('the essence of a place').
      It's not perfect, but it helps one remember what TYPE of words make up each acronym. Also, remembering that a doctor is an occupation and position and location are types of places can help jump start the memory and help one fill in the words for the rest of the letters.

    I'm really struggling with the gender in Spanish
    In my native language (Arabic) everything has a gender.
    But unfortunately it is different from Spanish, which make it harder 😰
    About 75% of gensers of nouns are the same in Spanish and Arabic, but what about the others?

      "Vos" is used as "tú" is some South American countries. In Spain it sounds like old Spanish, something like "thou" in English. She is probably Mexican so she teaches her Spanish; as a teacher I would teach this other forms as well.

      Unless you´re planning a visit to Spain, don´t bother with "vosotros" in América we use "ustedes".

    • @AndreaPhillips5
      @AndreaPhillips5 10 років тому

      Cesar Ortiz With all due respect... I totally disagree. With nearly 40 million Spanish speakers who DO use vosotros, I think it's more than worth the small bit of effort required to learn one more conjugation, especially if one is already bothering to learn the language in the first place.
      Also, it's much like learning to drive on a manual transmission compared to learning to drive an automatic transmission. Learn it from the get-go and it's an aspect of the overall skill that will be with you if or when you need it. Don't learn it, and you cheat yourself out of full mastery of the skill. And, of course, learning the vosotros is, by far, the more accessible of these two instances because it doesn't require access to any special equipment, supplies, etc.. So, in my opinion, there's really no excuse to not learn it. Thankfully, I had a Spanish teacher who strongly advocated this philosophy.

    • @1943cesar
      @1943cesar 10 років тому +1

      AndreaPhillips5 Con tu explicación tan intensa sobre el uso de "vosotros", hubiera preferido que fuera hecha en castellano. Por si no entendiste mi intención, no estoy en contra de aprender las conjugaciones en toda su extensión, sino sobre la practicidad de profundizar en su utilización en los casos que no son de uso común. Si tuviera que visitar España, usaría vosotros como corresponde, por respeto a quienes me estuviera dirigiendo. Me gustaría conocer cuál es el país con casi 40 millones de hispanohablantes a que te refieres. En Argentina también somos 40 millones y podrías hablar durante años con cualquiera de sus habitantes y jamás oirías la palabra "vosotros". Y nos entendemos perfectamente con nuestros vecinos.

    • @AndreaPhillips5
      @AndreaPhillips5 10 років тому

      Cesar Ortiz In your initial comment you said 'Unless you're planning on visiting Spain, don't bother with vosotros.' So, I was pointing out the fact, that, the people of Spain happen to make up nearly 40 million of the 350 million native Spanish speakers... which means, about one out of every nine native Spanish speakers DOES use vosotros, even if you don't.
      And, I don't think it matters that these one out of every nine native speakers who do use vosotros do not live in the Americas. Not learning vosotros because it's only used in Spain seems like an outdated concept from the era before the internet, globalization and increased international travel when most people speaking Spanish in the Americas would likely only encounter other Spanish speakers who were also in or from the Americas.

    • @egemen327
