Hey man I'm studying for this huge Spanish test and you teach Spanish better than my teacher who has been doing this for 40 year thanks you've help me so much by clearing up all this. Thank you so much
I've been studying Spanish for a while now and I've watched all your videos and knew a lot of what you spoke about in them. However your explanations make it stick in an unique manner. Your jumpcuts keep me interested and your pace is GREATLY APPRECIATED. I hate slow learning, keep that pace. Muchas gracias mi gringo hermano.
+Brett Burky Awesome! Thank you so much! I'm glad you like the pace. I hate slow stuff too. So I'm not gonna slow down. I'll make changes. I'm always looking to get better. But the pace stays =) Thanks so much for this message. I appreciate it.
I'm from Chile and I'm studying English at University. Let me tell you I've loved your explanation! Congrats by the way and I'm glad you like Spanish as I like English^^
+withmrgyu Awesome! I can't wait to visit Chile! It's very high up on my list. I'm glad you liked my explanation and I love that you watch my videos (I assume to help with your English)! Saludos!
Hey dude, I'm in Spanish one and your videos are super helpful! I have a unit test next week and your videos and flash cards are helping me study! So cheers from Germany. ( I'm German btw )
Excellent video. I particularly liked learning what I call a "golden nugget" of truth from this video, which was that adjectives ending in "e" or a consonant are not subject to gender matching. Thanks for taking the time to educate your fellow gringos.
I am enjoying your videos, is really showing a lot of work behind to make them going straight to the point. Nice job. I would like to add that adjective could also go before the noun, but that is changing their meaning slightly. However, it is not used in spoken language and is more usually seen in literature. What I am explaining here is an advance rule in spanish. When an adjective is going before the noun it is called "epíteto", and actually is an adjective "not needed as it is a property well known by everybody". For example, being 100% correct (not everybody is in spoken language) you should say "la blanca nieve" and not "la nieve blanca", because "nieve" (snow) is always "blanca" (white). In literature is used for providing extra meaning to some adjectives and situations, I always liked the following example I learnt: Brave soldiers climbed the hill. Los soldados valientes subieron la colina : means that only those soldiers that were brave climbed the hill, so some of them did not because were cowards. Los valientes soldados subieron la colina: the adjective is not needed, so that means that "valientes" is a property of all soldiers. So it means, that all the soliders climbed the hill AND all of them were brave. It is an small change in the sentence, but again, is an advance rule more typical from literature. In spoken language people usually make explicit what they want to say having a longer sentence.
You absolute legend. I got stuck on my Rosetta Stone app and you explain all the areas I am getting stuck with. Thank you! Also, love your explanation to the difference with Latin America and Spain in terms of pronunciation. I’m from England and find the lisp incredibly difficult. Please keep these coming, great teacher!
Fast paced videos with great information. Some of them I am not able to use with my young students due to some words not "safe for the little ears." I love the free resources to practice. I noticed a few mistakes in the given worksheet worth reviewing. Thank you!
+caleb edwards Awesome! Glad you found me. Just when you have problems with something specific, come here (or my website has everything categorized) and watch the video on that subject. let me know if anything in Spanish 2 isn't covered by my videos.
Thank you for teaching us to connect sentances we appreciate you to de learn more spanish I would love to see your spanish videos I love to watch all your videos
Hello Jordan Kudo Kudos my friend. i have been using your tubes in Spanish for my classes and have been very helpful to my students. Listen are you going to work on CAR-GAR-ZAR verbs? I cant find this on your list. Surely, there are other videos related to, but there is a cache in yours that my students like it. Please make that one. Let me know when will be available. We already started school and need it. Keep up the good work.
Jordan, i want to mess up a little your class. Just for make it more complicated and funny. Funny ha ha and funny weird. In spanish we can also say "pequeño" with the same meaning than "chico". We can say "un pequeño pequeño", "un chico pequeño", "un pequeño chico", "un chico chico" (in all cases means: a little boy, a small boy). But also we got the morphem "it", which means 'small', it makes the things smaller (see what i did here ;P), and goes before the gender mark. And it's accumulative. So we can say: pequeñito, pequeñitito, pequeñitititititititititititititito hahahaha :P Thanks for the videos!
I have a question. I've heard the verb tener used with adjectives, such as "tengo frio" or "tengo sueno". If a woman is saying this would it be feminine, like "tengo suena", "tengo fria"???
Creo que lo esencial es que definas a que español te vas a referir, por que el vocabulario, palabras definiciones, etc es muy diferente en México, España, etc
Make the CH stronger, at the end of CH u sometimes make the sound SH, like you make longer the CH and it becomes a SH at the end...you do it great!!! I would know you are not from Spain just because the accent, good job man!!! :)
good video; i have to remind to many of the people here that the video was about a very basic Spanish; yeah, there are exceptions, and yeah, there are synonyms and diminutives, but when you teach at the BASIC level, you try to show first the main-general rules
Just wondering when you are writing a spanish sentence how do you know wheather the words should be masculine or feminine? Is is when your writing about a girl you change it to feminine?
I just did your practice questions for this video and for numero 24 - why is it problema dificiles? In one video you said that problema (problem) was masculine so I wrote los problemas estan dificil. I thought for adjectives you cant add onto the end unless is it a i o u? I also dont understand wether to use estan in my answer or would it be just estar or esta?
It's a typo. It should be "problemas difíciles". I don't pay attention to most "rules" -- they turn out not be rules lol. Here's my video about adjectives: spanishdude.com/quickies/adjectives/
I have a question. What if there are two different nouns of two different genders? Example Does it become "El hombre y La mujer son 'contento' or 'contenta'?" I'm learning Spanish on my own and this is confusing me. Pls reply
Sir when i say i like football very much then in spanish it says "me gusta el futbol mucho" but you told that in spanish noun always come before adjective then why can't i say "me gusta mucho el futbol"?
hey 'gracioso' often fits for a person like 'Jordan es muy gracioso' or a situation like a fail 'la caída fue muy graciosa' and 'divertido' fits for places like parks, bouncehouses, u name it, or activities like playing, camping, whatever 👍😆😆
en español en verdad no tenemos un ORDEN que utilizamos siempre. desordenamos y volvemos a ordenar la posición de las palabras siempre y cuando tengan sentido. en ciertas ocasiones pones las frases del revés y aparecen adjetivos ANTES del nombre para darle belleza y peso en la frase. un ejemplo simple:la florida tarde de primavera.
Solo digo que hablo español soy de Venezuela y me rió porque hablo ingles tambien y el dice que es raro que los adjetivos sean al reves pero es al reves Jajajajaj. Respeto
i know spanish but do you know why you say "el agua" (whitch means the water by the way)? why not "la agua"? i just thought you shuld point it out to beginer spanish spekers.
BigBoomer101 01 if a feminine word starts with a stressed "A" you have to change the article in the singular form, so that you don't have two "As" in a row. For example we say "El Agua" in singular, "Las aguas" in plural. "El Águila" in singular, "las águilas" in plural. If the A at the beginning is not a strong one, you just keep the feminine article.
BigBoomer101 "La agua "with those two" a" together souds weird . It' s called cacophony , and to avoid it we say " el agua " el águila" but they are still femenine words , so we say :" el agua fresca " or " El águila magestuosa " . And in plural it is :" Las aguas " and " las águilas " because the " s " of the plural avoids those two "a" together .
Tanya Renaissance it's for the English speaking natives to understand his Spanish. 😄 This is how the North Americans sound when speaking Spanish. 😉 Anyway, Jordan is here to teach grammars, not pronunciation.
Kartini Hanitio I understand that but for those that want to learn pronunciation, this video will not help those. In any Spanish class-correct pronunciation is key
THANKS OMG MAY GOD BE WITH YOU, YOU JUST SAVED MY ASS :D:D:D:D Actually i hate spanish because i think it is the most ugly language in the world. But i have to learn it because of my studies so, thanks a lot :D ! Greetings from Germny/France :*

Excellent video. I particularly liked learning what I call a "golden nugget" of truth from this video, which was that adjectives ending in "e" or a consonant are not subject to gender matching. Thanks for taking the time to educate your fellow gringos.
I think Spanish is a beautiful language and I have Been searching for a good video for 4 months and I finally found a good one
Thank you! This helped me with me my Spanish class a lot.
Excellent videos! I am a student and also work as a substitute teacher. Your teaching style is incredibly accessible and effective!

Very good to learn Spanish from a norte americano (gringo). Great job on the videos!

Thanks! This is really helping to clear up some things I needed reviewing on before my Spanish I unit test in a few days!
Just wanted to say all these videos are really great :) they are interesting and make a ton of sense and are really helping me, thanks so much

When he said “With Spanish, once you get behind, it’s hard to catch up.” 6:13 I thought to myself, I learned that the hard way
Man you're videos are so good

Can you tell me the easiest way to learn verb conjugations

I have a question. What if there are two different nouns of two different genders?
Example
Does it become "El hombre y La mujer son 'contento' or 'contenta'?"
I'm learning Spanish on my own and this is confusing me. Pls reply
Sir when i say i like football very much then in spanish it says "me gusta el futbol mucho" but you told that in spanish noun always come before adjective then why can't i say "me gusta mucho el futbol"?
thanks for the help!
@Manny Yak
Ya aprendiste a hablar español?
Muchas gracías chico lindo ❤
Why is it that "bad idea" is "mala idea" and not "idea mala"? Why aren't the same rules followed in this situation?
where can I get a lindo shirt?
Whats the difference between 'gracioso' and 'divertido' in terms of usage?
+Tim Chye Thry Gracioso = Funny. Divertido = Fun.
hey 'gracioso' often fits for a person like 'Jordan es muy gracioso' or a situation like a fail 'la caída fue muy graciosa'
and 'divertido' fits for places like parks, bouncehouses, u name it, or activities like playing, camping, whatever 👍😆😆
the way this dude says chico has me dead
a veces el adjetivo es antes el sustantivo ¿donde esta la excepcions?
en español en verdad no tenemos un ORDEN que utilizamos siempre. desordenamos y volvemos a ordenar la posición de las palabras siempre y cuando tengan sentido. en ciertas ocasiones pones las frases del revés y aparecen adjetivos ANTES del nombre para darle belleza y peso en la frase. un ejemplo simple:la florida tarde de primavera.
igenio96 Por esa razón el escritor francés Victor Hugo llamó al Español el Lenguaje de los Dioses.
+igenio96 Pero esa forma es usado, mayormente, en poesía. Es como cuando los gringos escriben He/she/It don't en sus canciones.
Are there no degrees of comparison in spanish
He has a very English accent to be teaching Spanish
"Lindo" jajaja. Un gringo lindo.
Solo digo que hablo español soy de Venezuela y me rió porque hablo ingles tambien y el dice que es raro que los adjetivos sean al reves pero es al reves Jajajajaj. Respeto
Do you always have to have an article, as in French?
Like, you always have to say: unas manzanas
And you can't just say: manzanas
@Stephanie S hola!
Tanto como para el masculino y el femenino ambos dicen lo mismo "tengo frio" o "tengo sueño" estas frases no tienen genero!
I thought you added an as
Perfecto
I thought lindo was nice. is it also nice?
Tika Fabulous yep
Isn’t boy nino
❤️❤️

Clickbait. 7:17 seconds not 7:16
Its as if you are saying " the boy is small" rather than "that is a small boy"
