As a native spanish speaker, I don't think I could explain this topic as simple as you do. You help me to improve my english listening skills and this is an opportunity to understand better my own language.
Thanks and greetings from Mexico!!!
As a native speaker I'm here to improve my spanish too.
wow that is a language learning hack! im gonna start listening to spanish speakers teaching english! thanks gracias!
And me, I am french, and I can improve in both languages !!! Me encanta !!!
@@neaworld3960 shut up
Native speakers without special training are usually good for conversation but not for teaching grammar. This is because we can speak the language and apply the rules correctly without explicitly knowing them. That is different when you learn a language after puberty. Then you need explicit rules and only those people can pass on these explicit rules to another set of learners.
Gracias!
I've ignored the subjunctive for as long as I could. I know I need to start understanding it, but every lesson I have tried, I. could. not. grasp. it.
This is the first time I have finally started to understand the subjunctive.
*Light bulb moment*
Excellent! So glad to hear that!
Muchas Gracias !
I had many doubts, how to use subjuntivo but this lesson has cleared my so many doubts. I am from India and a Yoga expert. I am learning Spanish to do ancient yoga practice amongst Spanish speakers This lesson is very helpful. Please make more videos. Thanks 🙏
This is the best class I ever attended to learn about the subjunctive in Spanish. Thanks a ton! No one ever explained the subjunctive this easy for me. Hats off to you! You doing a great job.
Thanks Joseph!!
You Sir, are a genius. I was raised
Bilingually. Both my parents were from Puerto Rico and we lived in New York. Soy Nuyorriqueño.
When I was a kid I would go back-and-forth between English and Spanish. Even though I took Spanish classes in High School, I was never able to get a handle on the subjunctive. I’m a 68 year old man.
Me defiendo bastante en español, but it generally baffles me when it comes to the subjunctive. I do speak Spanish with my cousin every day.
He lived in Puerto Rico for a few years with his parents and went to Catholic University of Puerto Rico.. So whenever we speak Spanish he stays in Spanish and I devolve into speaking Spanglish. And that generally happens when I am confronted with the subjunctive. Your explanation of WEIRDO is brilliant. It’s the first time I’ve ever heard such a thorough explanation of what the thing is. Thank you
Pi
We didn’t need ur life story bru
This is one of the hardest things to get in Spanish.
To me, this has been the hardest tense to master =( But I wont give up, I will master this tense!
This is typically a challenge for people, but you CAN get it! Sounds like you have great determination.
subjunctive is a mood, not a tense
@@TheLanguageTutor the “subjunctive mode” you mean, maybe learners of Spanish as second language wouldn’t find it so hard if they were taught the subjunctive is a MODE -not a tense.
Dude same. This is why I’m here watching this video. We’ve talked about this so much in class 😭 It’s still not sticking.
+1000000. I’m struggling lol😂
No wonder why instead of saying, " Ten un buen dia ", it's "Que tengas un buen dia. "
I always wondered this, because I was taught that forming commands is done generally by withdrawing the ending of the infinitive... " Ten " " Pon " "Ven "
Knowing this made me want to say ten un buen dia, to say have a good day...
But, in actuality I suppose that statement is in the subjunctive tense and thus must be said as, " Que tengas un buen dia " since it is really a wish of yours for what's to come; a request in a way.
IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW!
I also watched a show that had a scene where a girl said, " No me toques " and I wondered why she said that instead of tocas since tocas is the tu form...
Now I understand it's because of the subjunctive. Holy cow it's very helpful to know this. Thank you for the vid!
Yo espero que HAGAS mas videos 😉🤓
I am so glad this helped! Sounds like you're doing really well!
Ten un buen dia = imperative.
Que tengas un buen dia = subjuntive.
I use both randomly
Finally!! Someone explained this in a way I can understand. Thank you so much!!!
Glad it was helpful!
Hi
I have only been learning Spanish for 2 months, and I went on to utube and saw many videos, but your videos are brilliant, so easy to follow. I watch them every day!!! Thank you
Jeannette
Thank you! 😃
That was the best way of explaining this topic,
Great. I speak 5 languages, and I can honestly say, I haven’t heard or seen anyone explaining it so clearly. Well done Professor
when I first started off I cannot speak Spanish but because of you right now I'm intermediate in Spanish I'm so happy to have you as a teacher thank you
You are so nice! Thank you amigo!
I fully came here because the subjunctive has defeated me, but I couldn't stop playing the intro, the way you said Worcestershire just had me in pieces hahahahaha (I'm British), so thank you. I can form the subjunctive in my sleep but knowing when to use it is the hardest. The examples help. Thankyou.
Glad you liked it! I have to laugh at myself.
I've been able to speak and understand passable Spanish up to the subjunctive level for 25 years until now. This legit will open up my conversations. Thank you!!!
oh wow, I wish I'd gotten this kind of explanation when I was learning French - I never thought of it as multiple subjects, just random types of conditions that trigger using it. This made it so much easier to think about. I won't be as intimidated learning the subjunctive in Spanish now!
So glad we were able to help make it less intimidating!
you've made me really confident in learning subjunctives after this video, thanks a lot!
That's great to hear! It makes me really happy to know I could help you.
Your big fan from Egypt.I was astonished when you said "ojalà"
We call it(inshaa allah )إنشاء الله
Or "Oh Allah"
You just made something click that I've been confused about basically since I first started learning. It never made sense to say for the english, "have a good day!" > "!que TENGAS un buen día!" NOW I GET IT because the "espero" is implied and it makes the tener subjunctive🤯🤯🤯
😌
Soy española y considero que tu explicación de nuestro subjutivo es estupenda
I have been studying the subjunctive all summer. Back to basics this morning and found this lovely clear explanation. Thank you. I will watch the other 3 videos over the next few days. Thanks again.
I watched this lesson 3 days in a row, getting more out of it each time. Thank you Danny.
I started my Spanish journey two years ago with your Spanish for Beginners playlist. I finished that then moved on to Duolingo and other spanish youtube videos here and there. Now I'm watching telenovelas with Spanish subtitles and livestreams on Twitch. I'm far from fluent but I feel myself picking up more and more things and its very rewarding. Language learning is a great hobby that I recommend for everyone.
Anyway I never understood the subjunctive but your video makes it seem simple. I'm going watch the rest of your videos on it then look up your videos on other stuff I don't understand yet.
I just wanted to thank you for what you do. Your videos are awesome and you are a great teacher. I'm happy to see you are still making content and I wish you all the best. Paz y bendiciones a ti
Bro, I've listened to a lot of people explaining the subjunctive, they way you just ran it down makes perfect sense. You are DA BOMB.COM
After this lesson I have learned that it is indeed "not a big deal". Eloquently delivered. Muchísimo gracias
Thank you so much, Danny, you explained it crystal clear. I have never been able to understand the Subjunctive but you nailed it!!
Over the course of 18 minutes you've managed to make me, arguably a complete stranger to subjunctives, into someone who actually gets it.
Thank you for telling me this, that makes me so glad to hear!
When subjunctive is part of your first language you just feel better❤️ great lesson as always ❤️
Thank you so much!
I have been watching for 2 months, and I think I' m already going to speak spanish. Cause you are teaching a lot and I only need the speed to speak like a native speaker. Cause you are the best teacher and no other teacher can compete cause you teach everything we need to know about the subject on the episode😊
The best way to explain and clear the Spanish subjunctivo. Thanks!
Yes the subjunctive is hard to grasp. It took a long time to finally master it in German. Now here I go again in Spanish. I thought it would be easier this time around but oh no way. But this is by far the best explanation I’ve yet come across in any language. All of Language Tutors instructional’s are excellent. Thank you!
It is so kind of you sir to put this sort of effort into us..... You have made Spanish so easy yet so fun for us. A big thanks to you for all this. We love you and your channel sir. 😊😊
It's my pleasure!
The subjunctive has been my bane of learning Spanish, I knew the WEIRDO acronym but just couldn’t grasp the ideals. The ease at which you broke it down was nothing short of a moment of clarity for me. Thank you. God Bless you for these free videos and your time
That's amazing!!! The best explanation of Subjuntivo!!!
I finally got though I thought it was impossible to understand Subjunctive in Spanish!!
Thank you so much!!!
The subjunctive has mystified me until this lesson. It has helped me to grasp the subjunctive better than before. Thanks.
Sir I just wanted to thank you for helping me learn Spanish (still a lot to learn) . I just finished AIB Spanish series & was looking to learn more from you & came across your channel. thank you for doing this. 💪🇮🇳⚽😇
Im so glad you found my channel. I hope you've subscribed so that we can continue to build on what you've already learned. I also suggest starting at episode one just to review!
@@TheLanguageTutor sí señor 😇💪. Hacemos esto. Hope that's right.
i can see many of us haev been looking for him hehe.
Thank you. I think I am beginning to understand the subjunctive which I have ignored! You make is seem so easy with your explanations
Me encanta tus lecciones.. están bien pensados y fácil de seguir!
Thank you so much I'm a fresh Spanish learner i've been trying to figure it out for a long time, Now not only can I understand it but I also can conjugate verbs by using the fliping method that u taught us Gracias mi maestro!!!!
I started learning Spanish a year ago on my own, with the help of your videos on the AIB Channel, and just now I found your channel and can't be more grateful! :)
Welcome to the Language Tutor family Kermina!
Thank you thank you thank you! You are absolutely the best and explained this way better than my Spanish teacher, I was so lost. Can't wait to rock my exam about this on Friday!
Quiero que hagas más videos como este… gracias por los consejos!
This may be 4 years old, but Im so happy I found you. Subscribed ❤❤❤
Superb explanation as always. I am Scottish now living in Spain!!!
Un vídeo muy bueno, soy irlandés y llevo 11 años en España, la verdad lo de sustituir el "que" por "that" es la clave. Great job, keep up the good word, un abrazo
Thank you for the WEIRDO acronym. It is most helpful.
(I would give this video 3 thumbs up if I could.)
So kind of you to say! Glad it helped!
Wow! you explained this so well, I don't know why I had so much fear over learning the subjunctive mood. This is so simple its stupid now :-) Thank you.
I love to hear that! SOOO glad I could help!
Soy Filipina, Gracias a usted Profesor, Yo aprendi mucho en esta leccion.
I am teaching Spanish in South Korea. Your video is very helpful, Thank u~
Finally! Thx for your teaching style. I feel more comfortable with the subjunctive!
Glad it was helpful!
Great lesson. I have been teaching subjunctive with WEIRDO for many years. I will definitely recommend your video to my students!
That’s wonderful! Thank you for sharing!
After many days i finally found an perfect explanation, thankyou very much. i love you profesor.
Glad we could help!!
Great video profesor! I appreciate how you use simple, easy to understand language when teaching. Keep up the great work! Liked and subscribed 👍
This has been really helpful! I've been avoiding this tense for a while now, but this video made it easy to understand :)
Glad to help!!
Thanks That was the last thing i needed to learn and now i can speak the LANGUAGE!!!
This is soooo helpful especially when doing homeschool , Thank you sir :)
Best explanation of the subjunctive I’ve seen so far. I can’t lie I avoid it like the plague but now I feel like I can see a safe landing zone of how to use it! Muchas gracias para este lección lo encontré muy útil 🙌 Now to run verb drills and practice!
Muchas gracias por esta leccion. Sorry por/ para. I am not teacher but i could say: por cause or reason. Para purpose. Thanks.
That is the best explanation I've ever heard for the subjunctive. Great video
Wow, thanks!
This is my first opportunity to check out one of your videos. Once the viewer gets to the point where the green writing starts popping up behind you to buttress your spoken points, it is outstanding.
Thank you so much Daniel!
Una lección fantástica. Muchas Gracias. Great idea the lady in Worcestershire had with locals getting together to learn Spanish. I would like to do the same if anyone is interested on The Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia
Thank you thank you! Im in a 9 month intensive spanish course right now and couldn't fully grasp this. You are truly so gifted in your ability to teach. THANK YOU!
Glad we could help Zoe!!
I am dying to see all your videos, Sir. Thank you very much for sharing your expertise on the matter.
Please check them out!!

Subjunctive is really achallenging subject.. But im starting to grasp it now that i watched your videos regarding it
...muchas graciad prof..
Thank you, Doctor, this made good sense building off of our previous lessons.
This was great! Thanks for clarifying. Makes it so much easier to understand!!!
I'm taking online Spanish college classes and you should get the credit for teaching me. muy bien!
Dr, Danny Evans is in the top three Spanish teachers! His teaching method and manner is (pardon my French) "san pareil".
Wow! I live near Droitwich UK. England is a small place in every way. Geographically and the fact that everybody knows everybody. That was a surprise when I heard that!
I speak Spanish, but I don't know how to explain this subjunctive to my students. So your video is really helpful.
Gracias por la ayuda!! :^)
Good lesson, opens a lot of doors, not only for speaking but for reading. Now its less confusing reading Spanish, muchas gracias el profesor.
.
Keep up the good work Wendell!
Muchas gracias or muchas gracias profesor. Typ only thanks avoid problems. I said because it songs bad.
Like many of your students, I've been avoiding the subjunctive for months! I finally bit the bullet and watched your video. You truly have a gift for teaching, you somehow manage to make even complicated things sound simple and to teach it in a memorable way. Muchas gracias
The simplest, clearest video I've ever seen about subjuntivo. Thanks a lot :)
¡De nada!
Thanks so much Maestro
Tu eres excellente Maestro.
💜 💜 💜 Respect , a deep one actually dr. evans as well as all gratitude in the world , knowing you deserve more 👏 👏 👏
Found your explaining very easy to comprehend. Also, love how the background is just plain white. Thanks, Danny
Thank you!!
Hello Sir, This is exactly what I need. Thanks a bunch for this video.
It's very helpful to understand subjuctive in Spanish.
Thank you!!
from S. Korea
THANKS FOR BEING SUCH AN AMAZING TEACHER FOR US ENGLISH SPEAKERS AND NATIVE SPANISH SPEAKERS...KUDOS TO YOU :):)
¡Muchas gracias amiga!
THE best explanation of subjunctive I've heard yet. Liked, subbed, I did it all. Thank you.
Thank you!!
Hey there, you are a great teacher. Thank you for your skill.
Great video, I have been struggling with the subjunctive for a while! You helped me.
Glad it helped!
I love your teaching style! I learn so much from your videos
Thank you! I'm glad I can help you!
Thank you so much for breaking it all down!
thank you for the great video, always informative and well put together. much appreciated.....
I believe (for me) the best foreign language teachers approach it from a grammar stand point
I found the link to this video in the recommended watch list for my Intermediate Spanish course in College. Great job!
Awesome! Thank you! Please share it with your classmates as well.
Muchas gracias por esta clase. Aprendí muchas cosas de esta clase del subjuntivo.
First time that I have heard it clearly explained!
Great lesson.. straight forward... simplied it and demistified it perfectly..thank you sir.
Glad to help!!
This session was very beneficial.Thankyou!💪
Will definitely watch all your videos. Thanks!
Appreciate all your lessons professor . Ojala que cuando usate ejemplos que fueron en español más que inglés . Thanks
Genius teacher! Thank you for explaining this so clearly.
You're very welcome!
Muy bien Danny, buen video. Soy hablante de castellano y te cuento que la mayoría no suele tener ni idea de qué es el subjuntivo. Se aprende y se usa por lógica, por cómo suena. Saludos.
Yo soy uno de los que no tenía idea del subjuntivo, y es mi lengua materna. Jajaja
Pense que seria dificil, pero ya lo supe. En polaco es similar. "Que" parece como "że" en polaco.
No idea if it made sense, so it was super easy to understand, maybe because I figured it out already just from listening to movies/games in Spanish, or maybe because in Polish it is very similar.
Thank you very much for your help, as a native Spanish speaker I was always so insecure about how to explain this. The rule of flipping the letters ("ar" verbs that use the "e" like "llegar→que llegue") is a very useful tool for intermediate students to at least recognize the Subjunctive in a text or sentence. Gracias!
@HW You want to make the "g" sound as in "gato". In order to do that you write "llegue", because "llege" would sound like yeh-heh
I was ready for those irregulars. Very pleasantly surprised
usted es el mejor sin ninguna duda, mil gracias profesor
Gracias!
so far best explanation that i came across. Thank you for you educational video
Glad you enjoyed it!
¡Muchas Gracias!
You are the best!!
This video is amazing! This is the fastest I’ve ever understood a new tense! Thank you so much 😊 🎉🎉🎉🎉
You're very welcome!
Thanks so much….you really cleared this up for me
