You can be very good with something , but , at the same time , unable to share that knowledge . Knowing a lot about a subject doesn't make you a good teacher.
Jordan, your videos are awesome! I find myself struggling with understanding these type of concepts and your videos break them down very nicely! Keep up the great work dude! You deserve a ton more subscribers!
Chris Seckler Thanks so much! I love to hear that my videos are helping. This in particular has definitely always given me problems for sure. Making the video helped me finally get it straight I think! Thanks for watching and the awesome words! Really makes my day.
With "gustar" -- the direct object is built into the verb. I define "gustar" as "to give pleasure". So, "pleasure" is the direct object. In "le gusta" -- "le" is the indirect object. "Le gusta la pizza." = "The pizza gives pleasure to him." ("la pizza" is the subject even though it's at the end of the sentence).
Duuuude!! You just taught me Indirect Object pronouns in 7 minutes that i've been trying to learn from my professor for 2 weeks. Why aren't English speakers Spanish teachers? Makes a huuuge difference! Thank you!
I used to believe that "Native Speakers" were better teachers than those who went through the arduous process of understanding the language from scratch... The reality is, that people who were born and raised in their mother language, don't know how their language is assembled, they just speak.. From this day on, I always seek a person like me who went through the whole process of learning and understanding the language before being fluent at it.. Once you reach a high level, you can focus on Native speakers... Thanks Spanish dude!
so true.. I speak excellent English... but I never knew why what I was saying was correct... just that it WAS correct. I've had to go back and review all that crap from 5th grade and middle school about object pronouns, infinitives, etc... just to get a firm grasp on how Spanish works lol.
I am here for English listening practice , and I agree with you . Some native speakers are good at teaching and some are not . Foreighn teachers are good at explaining grammar concepts to those who speak the same first language than them , because they had to analice a lot of their learned language structure to become fluent.
Well if they are a teacher then they have to know the curriculum and they all went to school to be a teacher. They would know more words and be more fluent because they speak it in their everyday day live, not to mention that learning a language isn’t just the language but the culture behind it. I’m not saying that non Hispanic people can’t teach Spanish, but I am saying that you can’t rule out natives for it being their first language
@@lolasan3702 I think some native teachers are excellent, but they do have a hard time explaining the parts of the language that don't make sense, as they never had to go through the process themselves. It's the same for me as an English speaker. I would not be as good at teaching English as someone who had to learn it from scratch.
I’m in Spanish 102 in college. I could not get this concept the way it was explained in the book or in class. I have a test tomorrow. Now I get it. You’re great at this. Thank you!!!
I'm a Spanish teacher and I just taught IOPs today in class. I'm going to use your video to show the kids tomorrow as a review to the lesson. You sum up everything so well and in a concise manner. ¡Muchas gracias amigo!
This is beyond my level. Its explained so well but my comprehension hasn't caught up to this yet. Makes me realize how much of a beginner I am, but I'm happy because I know videos like this show me that fluency is in my reach, eventually
I agree. This was, by FAR, the most informative video clarifying these. I had to drop Spanish II because I was about to have a nervous breakdown trying to understand these along with preterites and the whole Esto, eso, esa, esta, aquellas, etc. It was too much, too fast. I'm pausing this video all the way through to write the instructions into my notebook for Spanish II, take two......action!
My Spanish textbook was teaching this in such a confusing way “the direct object pronoun replace the noun that directly receives the action of the verb and the indirect object identifies to whom or for whom an action is done”, like slow down I don’t even know English well enough to understand that sentence
I have been PRAYING for a channel like this! Thank you Spanish Dude! Now I can be able to understand my Dominican wife alil better now when she’s yelling at me in Spanish 🤣
You should take a pronunciation class for the sake of the students. Awesome lesson in terms of content, but the accent can really teach the Spanish students the wrong way to speak. You say "Español" like I would if I was trying to sound white on purpose, and my Spanish isn't even that good. Just a suggestion, though.
@@ohia5654 I wouldn't bother. In situations like this, people like the OP find opportunities to present a negative or opposing comment with the sole purpose of bringing attention to themselves. It should be clear to anyone that the "gringo" angle is one of the main marketing objectives of this channel.
For people who are strugling with basic Spanish grammar , his pronunciation is good enough even with the obvious gringo accent . To be able to say sentences with good grammar , right conjugation , good pronouns use , and to be able to adquire a decent pronunciation ( he has it good enough to be perfectly understood ), and being aware of false friends and so is far more important than a native like accent and pronunciation at this level of learning . Once you get to be fluent , and once you are able to express your ideas clearly in Spanish , have then the pronunciation classes , like the frosting in a cake .
I love him: Lo amo I write him: Le escribo Both sound same "structured meaning" to me, how come one is direct and the other one indirect? Thank you for great tips :)
Merhaba Deniz, şöyle düşünebilirsin: "I love him" derken direkt fiilimiz him zamirine işliyor yani "I love him something" diyemiyoruz, bu demek oluyor ki him burada direct object pronoun fakat " I write him" dediğimizde burada görünmeyen bir direct object var aslında, yani "I write him something (a letter maybe)" diyebiliyoruz, bu buradaki him'in bir indirect object pronoun olduğunu gösterir, sadece görünmeyen bir direct object ile kullanılıyor.
I wrote (something) to him: le escribo (algo) (a él). The direct object "algo" is implied. "A él" is an indirect object that's why you should use the indirect object pronoun "le".
Your videos are brilliant ! thank you the grammar in Spanish reduces me to a complete amateur despite kicking myself inside, completely frustrated by the fact that i do know how to say things but i lack the little check list in my brain before constructing my sentences, keep up the good work !
+Dave Baines I'm glad to hear this helps you Dave! Did you see the other videos in this series? You can see them all here: gringoespanol.com/quickie-category/pronouns There's direct, this one, double, reflexive, verbs like gustar (5). Check them out. They all go together and can get very confusing.
I currently live in Colombia. Thankyou for making these videos. DO and IO are by far my least favorite part of Spanish. I took college Spanish clases years ago and you are a far better teacher. Good job Sir and my the Gods bless you.
Stikmanization Jejejejeje ¿y cómo le va con el Español?, ¿mejoró bastante?, ¿cómo le parece el Castellano que se habla aquí?, ¿cómo le ha ido con la comida, la gente, el clima y la naturaleza, etc.?...De todas formas saludos desde la ciudad de Ibagué, Tolima, la capital musical de Colombia :3 :P
I had to subscribe to this station because this guy deserves the Google check. These are the best, most interesting to watch instructional videos out there.
Muchas gracias, yo usada tu video por mi examenes mañana. It has helped me understand it alot more clearer. Tu a la bomba profesor! Wish me luck hope I pass.
Putting them together: I buy him food You would think “Lo le compro” But I believe if it’s in 3rd person, and you have a DOP too, you replace the IOP with “se” Thus if you shorten the sentence to 2 pronouns it would be: “Se lo compro” - i buy him food Se - indirect 3rd person Lo - direct object which is food I am by no means fluent This is especially hard if you do not know the context in which the conversation is happening. this is an area I struggled with and still do to this day. Your lectures are great For instance I was able to explain to my friend from Mexico to we (the us) use “you and you” Your lectures really help
Super helpful! But CAN YOU SLOW DOWN 😅 Like just with the pace of your voice. I'm trying to process what you're saying and b4 I know it there is another jumpcut. It would just help if you spoke a bit slower. Sorry just my opinion your videos are great! 😁
Today was the first day that I saw your youTube channel. I am new in my Spanish learning journey, about two months in. Let me just your videos are FABULOUS!!!!
Muchas gracias, a través del video también he podido aprender sobre la gramática en Inglés. Yo al contrario estoy aprendiendo su idioma. Muchas gracias :)
Yo I was confused about indirect and direct pronoun and I found this video. It’s helpful. The video is very informative and I love how fast he talks, he cut all the bullshit and wasted me 0 sec. if I couldn’t follow for a bit, I could rewind. He’s now my favourite Spanish teacher now!
I'm learning Spanish using Rosetta Stone which teaches by using rather than by explaining. I could not understand why there was this redundancy of having an indirect object pronoun and an indirect object noun in the same sentence. Okay, got it now. It's for clarity and emphasis. Thanks
I come to your videos as a third option, you explain it real fast, perhaps a little to fast, but I come to you when I need to be quickly reminded. I come to you for speed lessons. I use a native speker and I also come to you when they don't explain it correctly. I find native speakers can't explain it to me like an native english speaker can, but I still use both! I will keep watching and if I use you a lot, I will pay the fee if there is one
Good content, less advertising and more content will help. If you build it, they will come; so the more quality the better your clips. Other than that good videos Spanish dude. I really like your passion and clarity.
You are so clear! I've always had an instinctual knowledge of English grammar but it's important to understand specifics when learning another language. Thanks!!!
Is it possible to use an indirect object without the associated pronoun in spanish? For example if I wanted to say "He let the cat be an idiot.", Would I say "Dejá del gato estar una idiota."? If not, how would I need to change the sentence to make it correct?
You seem to be a great teacher and I am trying to follow you, but you speak WAY to fast for me. Why not speak in a normal manner? Give us a millisecond to hear what you are saying. Please....
Thank you so much for all of your help. I am in an Advanced Spanish class in college, and your online lessons help me again and again. I recommend you to all my classmates. Your advice and way of explaining are so easy to understand and it makes me feel so much better about what I'm learning. So thank you, thank you, thank you! I appreciate what you do!
I'd love to see a video that explains why sentences with gustar use "le " or "les" instead of the direct object pronoun lo or la.There is only one object--the one pleased or the liker. Really, what is the direct object in "él le gusta a ella"?
i don't know if you've already done it but i've watchedyour indirect obj. and direct obj. videos several times and still seem to make mistakes. could you make a video specifically elaborating on te vs. ti and then lo, la vs. les and le?
At 3:40 the example "He writes me every week" sounds weird. Most of the time when I hear "write me" it means "write for me", not "write to me". Would this just be a dialectical difference?
Great explanation. I like the way you "clip" the video. It makes the listener, listen a little bit more. I agree 100% with your comment about learning English better. As a native English speaker, I never really needed to know what an indirect/direct object/pronoun is/was. Learning Spanish has opened up a whole new understanding of my own language. 👍
Oh, so all you have to do is to use the correct word at the correct time... so simple! Wait, I can do this for all of spanish, right? Done, fluent now... Gracias!!!
That usage of indirect object pronoun and the indirect object together makes it very strange. They should have made distinct indiirect object pronouns for different third person in the first place.
+Cat Phayboun You'r welcome! Glad it helped. That's part of a whole series, which you can find here: gringoespanol.com/quickie-category/pronouns/ (direct, indirect, double, reflexive, verbs like gustar)
thank you so much my spanish teacher is from columbia she's a pretty good teacher but she couldn't really help me understand indrirect object pronouns i know i understand it better
I'm in 9th grade and the way my Spanish 2 teacher teaches is so confusing and Ive got a test tomorrow about this topic and it just made way more sense to me Thank You so much, wish me luck!
Indirect is being done to whom or for whom direct is opposite Lo tengo the object is not being done to or for me Las cajas me pegò The hit of the boxes are being done to or for me Solo un ejemplo
So why wasn't my teacher with a masters in the spanish language not able to teach this a bit better?
because degrees often mean shit. being a good teacher is a talent as well.
You can be very good with something , but , at the same time , unable to share that knowledge . Knowing a lot about a subject doesn't make you a good teacher.
Teaching takes equal parts knowledge and talent.
I'm sitting here wondering why I took Spanish in high school at all, when my Spanish teacher NEVER taught us the le and les!!
Because she was teaching a class of 15 year old little shits who didn’t care because Spanish was just an easy class to pass.

Watching this right before a test Thankyou so much man
Your videos are very helpful for review before exams. Thank you!
When you say - "And just move on" is the best!
Hahahaha. Glad you're amused. Thanks!
Have you got a video on ‘was’?
Do you use just indirect pronouns or do you use direct / indirect pronouns for verbs like Gustar?
With "gustar" -- the direct object is built into the verb. I define "gustar" as "to give pleasure". So, "pleasure" is the direct object. In "le gusta" -- "le" is the indirect object. "Le gusta la pizza." = "The pizza gives pleasure to him." ("la pizza" is the subject even though it's at the end of the sentence).
Excellent video!

I wrote (something) to him: le escribo (algo) (a él). The direct object "algo" is implied. "A él" is an indirect object that's why you should use the indirect object pronoun "le".

What's the point to use Indirect object pronouns in a sentence if you already included the indirect object? (Le escribo a Manuel vs escribo a Manuel)
bullsvip A lot of times it can just be used for emphasis.
The indirect object pronoun must always be included
Really helpful, thanks!
My pleasure, glad it helped!

Spanish Dude: are you still doing these videos? They sure do help to review and explain what I didn't get/forget the first time. Thanks!
Putting them together:
I buy him food
You would think “Lo le compro”
But I believe if it’s in 3rd person, and you have a DOP too, you replace the IOP with “se”
Thus if you shorten the sentence to 2 pronouns it would be:
“Se lo compro” - i buy him food
Se - indirect 3rd person
Lo - direct object which is food
I am by no means fluent
This is especially hard if you do not know the context in which the conversation is happening.
this is an area I struggled with and still do to this day.

Why can some random guy on the internet explain IOPs and DOPs better in 7 minutes than my Spanish teacher can in three weeks?! Thank you!!
So why do we have to even use “le” if we’re specifying the who anyways?
Why “Le envío una carta a mi esposa”
And not “ Envío una carta a mi esposa”
I'd love to see a video that explains why sentences with gustar use "le " or "les" instead of the direct object pronoun lo or la.There is only one object--the one pleased or the liker. Really, what is the direct object in "él le gusta a ella"?
I don't see the link to the practice worksheet for Direct and Indirect Object Pronouns. Am I overlooking it?

That usage of indirect object pronoun and the indirect object together makes it very strange. They should have made distinct indiirect object pronouns for different third person in the first place.
Thank you! Your video was so helpful!
+Cat Phayboun You'r welcome! Glad it helped. That's part of a whole series, which you can find here: gringoespanol.com/quickie-category/pronouns/ (direct, indirect, double, reflexive, verbs like gustar)
thank you so much my spanish teacher is from columbia she's a pretty good teacher but she couldn't really help me understand indrirect object pronouns i know i understand it better
The INTRO scared the fuck out of me.... :') :') :') XDDDDD =) the lesson was great quick and easy.
I'm in 9th grade and the way my Spanish 2 teacher teaches is so confusing and Ive got a test tomorrow about this topic and it just made way more sense to me Thank You so much, wish me luck!
I hope you failed
@@sdotkelley6462 Lmao I bet you have on your tests.. and nope Aced it
Does anyone know if Os for (you all) is for Spain only?
It's the informal vosotros form only used in Spain. Elsewhere we use Ustedes.
@@jguillermooliver i learned that 7 months ago 😭 thanks tho
I was absent from Spanish for a day and now I feel caught up! Thank you! This helped so much!
Indirect is being done to whom or for whom direct is opposite
Lo tengo the object is not being done to or for me
Las cajas me pegò
The hit of the boxes are being done to or for me
Solo un ejemplo
Nice explanation. Although I think you may have missed one case: What if we have both indirect and direct object pronouns (Example: "I buy you it").
yo se lo compro i think
MessedUpAgain (Yo) te lo compro
Hey Jordan! How about "HABER"? Have you covered it at all? I am waiting.
anybody realize it says 9 min and 5 sec but the actual direct pronoun video is 9 min and 6 sec >:(
Great job! Was perpetually confused with this. Your show made it that much clearer. Mil Gracias!
Lol! Still bewildered on this. Gotta love having a 55 year old brain learning a new language.
