In Spanish tengo hambre literally translates as ‘I have hunger’ not I’m hungry. Appreciate this comment was 8 months ago, but if anyone else is confused!
¡Hola, Fernando! Todas funcionan perfectamente. Lo único es que la número 1 pedía la traducción para "yo" no para "nosotros", pero con "vamos a" funciona también. =)=)=)
Maura, how awful was it that I said to the work crew at my house, when they were leaving for the day: "Ustedes estan saliendo?"? I know I should have conjugated "ir" ("Ustedes se van?"), not "salir," but could my question be interpreted ONLY as "Are you all dating?" Or could one use "salir" in this instance?
Haha, I love this. Honestly I could've said either of those things (including the "¿ya se van?" which José Rafael suggested). Within the right context, they could all work. Now, "¿ustedes están saliendo?" has a better, less confusing version which would be: ¿ustedes están de salida?" or "¿van saliendo?". I hope this helps. Thanks for sharing! =)
@@joserafaelgutierrezsuarez8679 Gracias. In this case, I was asking just if they were preparing to leave. If I had used "ya," they might have interpreted it as a criticism.
@@MauraSpringSpanish Mil gracias por tu respuesta y las alternativas, Maura. My gringo brain wouldn't naturally think of "You are of exit?" or "You go leaving?," pero tiene sentido cuando pensando como hispanohablante nativo. Cuando leo tus comentarios, puedo escuchar tu voz, que es fuerte (pero encantadora). Una sugerencia: If you wish, you can speak English slower, and it will still sound fine -- even better. If you play your video at 0.75 speed, you actually sound MORE like a native English speaker (al menos, un estadounidense). Saludos.
¡Hola Robert! En general no distinguimos mucho entre esos sonidos. Normalmente, mi /v/ es solo un poco mas suave que mi /b/. A menos que este haciendo énfasis en la palabra. =)
I really want to like this channel, because of the informative content. But I'm not a fluent speaker, and many of the words and phrases are completely new to me. It becomes a burden to go back and forth and research the phrases. I wish the speaker would slow down for the sake of people like me., as this is supposed to be a learning channel. Just my opinion.

Nice video!!!!
Tu actuación es excelente. Hace que las lecciones sean más agradables.
¡Muchas gracias, Christopher! Esa es la idea ; )
I thought "tengo" was I have, not "I'm" which is Soy or Estoy etc...I have so much to learn!

Always super helpful! So glad I found this channel
So glad to have you here! =)=)=)
Usted es maravillosa gracias
¡Mil gracias a ti! =)=)=)
Mi frase favorita con "ir" es "me voy a ir yendo". Utiliza el mismo verbo (ir) tres veces en una oración. ¡Es una locura! 😂
Jajaja, toda la razón. Muy representativo de la cultura hispana repetir lo mismo tantas veces, jaja.
Hola. I’m wondering how to use ¿Cómo te fue? Vs ¿Que tal te fue? Correct when they are saying the same thing?
Hola Maura,
Mis repuestas son,
1. Vamos a
2. va
3. van
Si, me gusta el verbo ir, porque se usa en muchos casos
Gracias,
Fernando

@@MauraSpringSpanishHola Maura, no se si entiendo. Necesito revisar la lección.
LOL I thought I was getting a lesson on Instant Reality or Virtual Reality!

If you meant "are you already leaving?" You could've said "¿Ya se van?"

Do you have a video on yo vs me with voy/ir?
Hi Steven! Not really, but "Yo vs Me" is a very good idea. The same thing that would happen with "ir" would happen with other verbs too. =)
👍👍👍
Oye Maura, 'voy' se pronuncia con un /v/ (como en este video) o un /b/ en Venezuela. En España se pronuncia con un /b/ bastante todo el tiempo.
¡Hola Robert! En general no distinguimos mucho entre esos sonidos. Normalmente, mi /v/ es solo un poco mas suave que mi /b/. A menos que este haciendo énfasis en la palabra. =)
What's the difference between "Voy a . . . " and "Voy a ir. . . "? Thanks!
In English, it's actually not uncommon to say "I'm going by car (etc.)". Doesn't "irse" translate as "to leave"?
Are you actually pronouncing the "V"s as v ? like vamos instead of 'bamos' ?
VBamos
Creo qué: voy a cenar, cómo te vas, que ya se van
Michael! Very good work. Just ommit the "S" on "vas" = ¿Cómo te va? =)=)=)
@@MauraSpringSpanish right it is the "it" that is going that is the subject. Gracias por tanto.
