I had such a fun time with Andrea learning these Spanish words! Slowly learning more and more Spanish with her help! Hope you guys enjoyed the video 😃 -Christina 🇺🇸
I'm jealous of your pronunciation with the Spanish language. I cannot roll an 'R' to save my life. I've wondered if there were Hispanics who could not roll their 'R'.
It's funny, some of those words are false friends in Italian too. Imbarazzata = Embarrassed Polla doesn't exists in Italian (at least not with that meaning and it's a rare world), we have pollo which means chicken (hen would be gallina) Largo is extremely interesting, we have the same word but it means wide, not long. This makes it a tri-lingual false friend. We have esito instead of exito, but it just mean "outcome" (it could be good or bad), and is often associated with a test or exam of some kind. We don't have hipo or hippo. Hippo would be ippopotamo (we don't shorten it). We also have ippo- as a prefix, and it can used to form words related to horses. Ippica = horse riding/racing Ippodromo = Hippodrome The video is great!
@@garyfontenot2786 The Hispanic people that can’t roll the “R” tend to be those born in the United States, but didn’t learn Spanish from their parents. This is actually quite common as more Hispanic people are now 2nd and 3rd generation born in the U. S. and are taught Spanish later on in high school.
She had a video with Lauren and grace on Lauren's youtube channel I think you might like to watch it. It's interesting learning scouse slang word and british slang word ☺️
In Chile there's a lottery company call "La Polla" , (in chile is not a bad word) A lot of Spanish tourist goes to the lottery bulding to take pictures.
This shit happens in languages, it seems. There is a beach in Portugal called "Praia do Arrombado", except in Brazil "arrombado" means... someone who had their 'behind' overstretched...
Amazing videos, thanks! Minute 6:28 in the subtitles there is a mistake, it is not "atenido", is "Esta canción HA TENIDO mucho éxito". Minute 8:07 it is not "seva", is "se va". Sorry for my poor english hahaha
Largo means _long_ in Spanish and _wide_ in Italian, while it means _both long and wide_ (big) in English. Knowing the three languages, it was super confusing at the beginning.
As an Italian that has just started learning Spanish there are so many words In Spanish that make me laugh for their usage like vaso which in italian means vase but in Spanish means glass so at first I was like from where Spanish drink? 🤣
@@shrektheswampless6102 I could totally see how both meanings come from the same origin. Like you have an open container that you fill with water. And a big glass and a small vase can basically be used interchangeably. Perhaps the latin root was indeed a word for both.
As an American, I would say large usually means wide. It would be understood if used for long, but people in my area will mostly use the words "tall" or "long" when talking about something that is tall or long. Unless whatever is being talked about is actually both, but then I think a lot of people would say "big" and "tall" instead of "large"
As a Spaniard, the false friend that impacted me the most when learning English was "sensitive" and "sensible", which in Spanish are "sensato" and "sensible", the only thing is that their meaning is crossed. They would translate like this: Sensitive (in English) --> sensible (in Spanish) Sensible (in English) --> sensato (in Spanish)
@@Niall69Irish Yes but thats in Croatian language, here we just say "biblioteka" and thats all. We also use similar word "knjižica" but its not meaning library or bookstore...
In Spanish we use Hipo as Hiccup because in the old Greece when people had it they said it sounds like the sound of a Horse and Horse in Greek is "Hippos"
In Spanish we can say "preñada" for pregnant, it's the literal equivalent, but we use "pregnant" usually when we're refering to animals, like pets..at least here in Colombia.
But it's not like that for every Latin American country. I'm from Chile and we use "embarazada" (pregnant) for women and we use "preñada" for animals. I've heard that other countries use "preñada" for women, but nowadays "embarazada" it's more common
The word "embarrassing" seems to have come from Portuguese "embaraçoso", which has the same meaning. The issue is that the word has since been deprecated in Portuguese. It's seen as archaic or overly formal to use "embaraçoso" instead of "vegonhoso", these days.
6:26 In the subtitles, it is "ha tenido", not "atenido". Although it exists in Spanish "atenido", it means something different. Ha tenido: Has had Atenido: (Adj) someone who lives at the expense of others Now that I think of it, Spanish results kinda difficult sometimes.
@@salmonetesnonosquedan8345 I guess he forgot a "d" --->Atendido. Because atenido should come from "atenerse" = "to restrict yourself to do something".
I guess you forgot a "d" --->Atendido. Because atenido should come from "atenerse" = "to stop/restrict yourself to do something". Me he atenido de hablar --> I stopped myself from talking
Esa es otra en español tenemos la palabra once refiriéndose al número 11 y en inglés once significa una vez. La pronunciación es muy diferente en los 2 idiomas
I like Andrea more than any of the other Spanish speakers. Polar and polla makes no sense since we also have the word polar to mean the same thing as polar in English. I love Andrea and Christin together they really do get along very well.
In Spanish we have the archaic verb Exir which means "to exit". Literally no one uses the verb anymore. The English equivalet, exit, stems from the same root as Exir, that is, Latin.
Una vez, cuando estaba conversando con una chica (estudiábamos inglés), recuerdo que me contó que su padre trabajaba en una "librería". Como estábamos aprendiendo inglés, al parecer, mi cerebro estaba programado en otro idioma, porque lo que yo interpreté fue "library" instead of "bookshop". I'm argentinian so, we speak "spanish". Then I remember I asked her if her dad like reading books or something like that... That was so embarrassing! I guess that even nowadays she laughs at me... Jajaja
I can't believe they didn't put the famous "library" as one of the words! Is one of the most common false friends in Spain 😂
2 роки тому+2
6:27 "Esta canción HA TENIDO mucho éxito" ("ha tenido" for "has got" not "atenido" haha) anyway was a great video, I usually watch these videos to improve my English pronunciation :D
No es "has got", en realidad es "has gotten" osea "Esta canción ha tenido mucho éxito" "This song has gotten a lot of success" es la traducción correcta
All words ending with OR, BLE, and AL are precisely the same in Spanish and English - only the pronunciation is slightly different. This was the first rule taught to me in my Spanish language class, OR - doctor, pastor. BLE - porobable, cable. AL - animal, personal. There are hundreds of words that are very similar between the two languages.
Also excited and excitado, when people speak spanish and they wanna say "I'm so excited" they end up saying "Estoy excitado" but this means "I'm horny" 😅 If you wanna say that you're excited say "Estoy emocionada" (female) or "Estoy emocionado" (male)
The translation is not wrong it could bring mistakes but nothing else. As you can really translated it as being "nervous". I am excited about going to the concert -> Estoy excitado/emocionado por ir al concierto. No le hables alto que se excita ---> Don't talk loud to him that he gets nervous.
@@guillermomaita2624 well, at least in Mexico "excitado" has only one meaning, and it's a sexual one, it doesn't mean anything else. The situations where I've heard this word and it doesn't mean anything sexual is in chemical areas, but in cotidian life, (in Mexico) "excitado" always means what I've said.
@@guillermomaita2624 I’ve never herd anyone say “Estoy exitado por ir al concierto”, sounds too weird to me. “No le hables que se excita” sounds perfectly fine if your trying to convey that someone gets too emotionally expressive or angry/grouchy when you speak to them, not necessarily nervous (nervioso) though. In fact, nervous people tend to be very shy and reserved, lacking excitement.
"Excitado" (además del otro significado), se le puede decir a una persona con mucha energía, o por lo menos en mi país es así. Por ejemplo, "pará un poco, estás re excitado" a una persona molesta/pesada. Pero veo que en México no es así jajaja
Hey real story we rented the upstairs apt to some Mormon missionaries and one time the guy did something and said in Spanish that he was embarazado and me and my dad couldn’t stop laughing we know what he meant the word for embarrassment is vergonzoso lol.🤣🤣🤣
I laugh a lot when I see my English friends shocked when they read the Spanish word "negar". I ask them to try to pronounce it, but they absolutely do not want to.
@@Niall69Irish no, negar means "to deny", nothing else (maybe you mean "navegar" which means sailing). But many english speakers try to pronounce it in a english way and sounds like n-word. It is a stupid misunderstanding haha. And negro means basically black o dark: "gato negro=black cat, chocolate negro=dark chocolate"
@@stefancampillo2612 oooh yes i meant navegar. Brain fart i guess. Im trying to learn spanish and i take every opportunity to speak in spanish that i can get. Me encanta el idioma
hehehe la persona que subtitula deberia revisar su español hehehe , "no seva" ... en realidad " no sé va " , it don't go . Me encantan estos videos , molaria que dijeseis en español la palabra inglesa para contrastarlas.
We Brazilians have something in common to the spanish's "polla" lol When you use this as a good thing you say "This is polla!" We have a word: foda. We can use this too as something really cool, really off the hook ya know, but "foda" also means f*ck hahahahaha
En español también existe el adjetivo "embarazoso" para referirse a algo muy molesto y "embarazado" para referirse a alguien cohibido o incómodo. Además de las acepciones comunes de embarazada.
False friends in English usually come through Middle French loans during Norman conquest of England from XI century. Both French and Spanish languages descend from Latin. French evolved earlier, around IX century. Spanish a bit later around X century (at least our oldest written texts are from X century). Also English took words afterwards from ecclesiastic Latin used in christian church. Many original Latin words might have evolved differently in the 3 languages becoming these current false friends.
Los Cartularios de Valpuesta datan del 804 además todos los idiomas romances se formaron a la vez, tienen el mismo origen y evolucionan y se separan en un único proceso
There was no need to put the word "polla", since in Spanish there is the same word polar and with the same meaning, for example, "oso polar ", "clima polar", "hoy hace un frio polar", etc. And the Spanish word that most closely resembles embarrased is not "embarazada" but "embarazoso". I imagine that Andrea knew all that, only that they have to make the video fun.
Sí, aunque pudo haber explicado un poco, más que fuese sólo como curiosidad. Lo mismo con "polla", que aunque como tú dices no pasa realmente como false friend, sí que tiene una relación de significados casi cruzados con "cock".
Embarrased may also be confused with embarrada (covered with mud (barro=mud) or muddy) A road may be "embarrada" or a child (he came back all covered in mud after playing outside after the rain).
Polla in Spanish is a young hen, and young hens spend the whole day sitting on the eggs... Probably you get the metaphor. Embarazado means embarased (just check the dictionary) and also it means pregnant (preñada in Spanish)
You probably mean “embarazoso” which is also a translation for embarrasses but it’s probably a word that was used a very long time ago, I certainly have never heard any one say it my the 53 years I’ve been alive.
@@ninadouglas6289 No, he escrito embarazado porque he querido escribir embarazado. Y la última vez que lo he oído decir ha sido esta misma mañana. // No, escribí embarazado porque quise escribir embarazado. La última vez que lo escuché en una plática fue esta mañana.
@Esneyk nebulous Preñada (the cognate of pregnant) was the standard word, it became vulgar in a "Victorian" society context and replaced by a Portuguese term like embarazada or some silly expressions like en estado de buene esperanza. And the word for deliver a baby is parir, replaced by dar a luz, but in the Hospital the maternity room is called paritorio.
@@Pikachu-ez1rm "La red" could refer to the internet as well, but it's not a common way to say the internet. (Las) "Redes sociales" is the way I would say social media in spanish.
May I point out something? Some of the Spanish spelling of the words in the "subtitles" are wrong. Examples (I'm writing the right ones): 6:28 "Esta canción ha tenido mucho éxito"; 8:07 "No se va". Another thing to have in mind, "polla" might not be found in all Spanish countries. In Argentina, at least, it's not used as in Spain.
I had such a fun time with Andrea learning these Spanish words! Slowly learning more and more Spanish with her help! Hope you guys enjoyed the video 😃 -Christina 🇺🇸

It's funny, some of those words are false friends in Italian too.
Imbarazzata = Embarrassed
Polla doesn't exists in Italian (at least not with that meaning and it's a rare world), we have pollo which means chicken (hen would be gallina)
Largo is extremely interesting, we have the same word but it means wide, not long. This makes it a tri-lingual false friend.
We have esito instead of exito, but it just mean "outcome" (it could be good or bad), and is often associated with a test or exam of some kind.

Library / Librería... Hasta el día de hoy me sigo confundiendo 😂
Si es Library no tienes que pagar (biblioteca), si es librería, sí (book store)
Largo is also a musical term which originates from Italian.
Meaning "broadly" for slower tempo, yes? I assume because the time is stretched out and takes longer.
@@HermanVonPetri Largo in italian really means wide, broad or large
Also there is the spanish word 'librería', which means bookshop, but is very similar to library, which means 'biblioteca' in spanish

"Polar" also exists in spanish.
"Largo (from Largar)" can also mean "Get out of here".
Same in portuguese.
Hahaha polla was very good. Andrea was very embarrased. Here in Spain it's very common to use that word in a sexual context.

Es así en todos los países hispanos
Same in Spain
Y del mismo modo tenemos la palabra "embarazoso" (que hace sentir incomodidad o vergüenza).
Yes "preñada" is more for animals.
But it's not like that for every Latin American country. I'm from Chile and we use "embarazada" (pregnant) for women and we use "preñada" for animals. I've heard that other countries use "preñada" for women, but nowadays "embarazada" it's more common
As a spanish person, this video was so funny 🤣🤣 we really do struggle with some false friends, there are so many
Especially when there is no difference in the spelling.

Hello! In the minute 6:27 you put "atenido" but it should say "ha tenido" in the subtitles, but great video! I loved it 😊
The word "embarrassing" seems to have come from Portuguese "embaraçoso", which has the same meaning.
The issue is that the word has since been deprecated in Portuguese. It's seen as archaic or overly formal to use "embaraçoso" instead of "vegonhoso", these days.
embarazoso exists in Spanish too, it didn´t come from that, it most likely came from Latin
@@QwertyUiop-bs2zr No, I am aware it's a Latin radical, but it was adopted from Portuguese, not from Latin.

Christina is so nice, is impossible to have a boring conversation with her 😂
7:13 ayo what was that sound-
There was no need to put the word "polla", since in Spanish there is the same word polar and with the same meaning, for example, "oso polar ", "clima polar", "hoy hace un frio polar", etc. And the Spanish word that most closely resembles embarrased is not "embarazada" but "embarazoso". I imagine that Andrea knew all that, only that they have to make the video fun.
Sí, aunque pudo haber explicado un poco, más que fuese sólo como curiosidad. Lo mismo con "polla", que aunque como tú dices no pasa realmente como false friend, sí que tiene una relación de significados casi cruzados con "cock".
Polla also sounds a bit like the Dutch word "pooier" which means pimp.
Embarrassed 🇺🇸 = Embarazoso 🇪🇦
And the person= Avergonzado/a
no embarrassed 🇺🇸= embaraçado 🇧🇷.
“Atenido” 😂
great to see Christina back
This is my favourite team ! ❤
Embarrased may also be confused with embarrada (covered with mud (barro=mud) or muddy) A road may be "embarrada" or a child (he came back all covered in mud after playing outside after the rain).
But then an embarrassing situation is a Situación embarazosa, in that case it does mean the same 😂
Another fun one is Mallet, and Maleta (suitcase).
I remember when I was learning English I once used the word "molested", which I translated in my mind as "molestar". Two very different meanings! 😳
Polla in Spanish is a young hen, and young hens spend the whole day sitting on the eggs... Probably you get the metaphor.
Embarazado means embarased (just check the dictionary) and also it means pregnant (preñada in Spanish)
pero si lo dicen en el video todo eso, igual preñada se usa más para animales, para las persona es vulgar.
@@kame9 "se sentía embarazado y no se atrevía a mirarla"
You probably mean “embarazoso” which is also a translation for embarrasses but it’s probably a word that was used a very long time ago, I certainly have never heard any one say it my the 53 years I’ve been alive.
@@ninadouglas6289 No, he escrito embarazado porque he querido escribir embarazado. Y la última vez que lo he oído decir ha sido esta misma mañana. // No, escribí embarazado porque quise escribir embarazado. La última vez que lo escuché en una plática fue esta mañana.
@Esneyk nebulous Preñada (the cognate of pregnant) was the standard word, it became vulgar in a "Victorian" society context and replaced by a Portuguese term like embarazada or some silly expressions like en estado de buene esperanza. And the word for deliver a baby is parir, replaced by dar a luz, but in the Hospital the maternity room is called paritorio.
Im so glad to see christina back. Misseddddd herrrrrrr ....omggggg i love you soo much 😔😔
Excité in French often means horny and not excited.
yeah, in Spanish we use excitado for horny aswell so it's a pretty weird false friend haha
As French speaker 🇫🇷, the word "Excité" is actually French. It means "Excited". Also "horny" as well 😆
In Portuguese excitado means horny lol
In English, excited can also mean horny.
it can mean the same thing in english
Christina and Andrea are my favorite of the girls. They have great energy. 😃
Polla was a bit forced as in Spanish we say Polar to say Polar. For example: A polar bear in spanish is "Un oso polar".
Hello christina always happy come to channel again
When I think of false English-Spanish friends, I think of to call - callar
I love Andrea!
I've never heard or read in this context of false friends the word "RED", that in Spanish means network, instead of the colour as in English.
Yes. La red. I haven't heard it much only in computer language
@@Pikachu-ez1rm "La red" could refer to the internet as well, but it's not a common way to say the internet. (Las) "Redes sociales" is the way I would say social media in spanish.
With the amour to the American English language.
Frankly, the Spanish, American English, and Portuguese languages are similar to one another.
@ English vocabulary: how ex US president beat a women journalist during a press talk.
May I point out something? Some of the Spanish spelling of the words in the "subtitles" are wrong. Examples (I'm writing the right ones): 6:28 "Esta canción ha tenido mucho éxito"; 8:07 "No se va".
Another thing to have in mind, "polla" might not be found in all Spanish countries. In Argentina, at least, it's not used as in Spain.
Andrea kinda gives Nairobi vibes from MH in this video. badass, cool and funny ❤
exito = success. now what do you say whn you find an exit to all of your troubles? thats right, is not so far
