I am native Spanish speaker but here I am learning how to order food in Spanish, WTF 😂😂😂😆
😂
tico1983 youre not a native from spain
Charlie Coder In English, “Native Spanish speaker” doesn’t mean you’re from Spain. It means Spanish is your mother tongue. I’m a native English speaker, but I’m not from England. -Jim
@@funlanguages7922 who said I was from Spain? Is like if I was saying I am a native French speaker that doesn't means I am french. Also people from spain are not called Spanish but Spaniards just saying.
Hahaha, the same as me 😂😂
I like how everything was so polite and patient..
I taught conversational Spanish for four years to homeschool high school students. I took them to a Mexican restaurant here in California and everyone had to speak Spanish order the food in Spanish, pay speaking to the waitresses in Spanish etc. I’d go through the items too and have then tell me what it was in Spanish. Excellent way for kids to learn the language.
Great idea
That’s so cool! I wish my teacher had done something like that when I took Spanish!!
As a Mexican Spanish teacher this video was a Godsend! Thank you so much for a great video. It will be so useful for my class (I really wanted a video recorded in Mexico!). Thank you so so much.
If some of the translations were not backwards it would be great
So happy with this. It took me ages to find a good video on how to order food.
¡Gracias Jo! We're glad you found it useful. Much more to come. 😄
Watching this on my way to go to a restaurant 😂
buen suerte, lo necesitas
It would be helpful to show how to resolve conflicts, like the food is too salty, too spicy or just tastes bad, when you didn’t order a dish, bill charges. A follow up lesson should cover those cases.
Thanks so much, Manuel!
These are all great ideas! We'll keep them in mind for future videos. :)
¡Un saludo!

Con ese nombre manual, yo me imagino que ya sabés decir todo eso 😂😂jaja chiste amigo solo estoy molestando
if you arent a local spanish speaker with the local places accent complaining about the food is a sure way to have real problems with annoyed staff! Comes la comida con demasiado sal y lo te gustas

I'm a native speaker of Spanish, I just found your channel, it's so great, I'm practicing my English accent
That’s fantastic! We’re glad to hear that. Thanks for watching! Saludos. -Jim
I've been learning Spanish in Barcelona, Spain for the last six months and people here use a different vocabulary when ordering food i.e. me gustaria..., querría..., voy a tomar...., me pones..., algo más?..., ya esta? and so on. It is fascinating to see how it differs from one country to another.
Joshkun Tepeli thanks for that. Have a Spain trip on the books.
I live in Mexico and we say "Me gustaria...." and "Voy a tomar...."
I have not used "Te encargo..." but will add it to my vocabulary. Thanks for that!
Si. Hay demasiadas expresiones utilizadas dependiendo del país. En mi caso yo diría :, quiero... Es más corto.
La cosa que aprendí en Ecuador 🇻🇪 es "de llegar", meaning carry out. So, maybe you can put that into use by asking, "¿Tiene comida de llegar?" At least, that's what I asked to find out if I could order food to go.
Joshkun Tepeli are u still in Spain 🇪🇸
If you want to learn Spanish, I found this is one of the best option.
I studied at Colima University and I love all the hidden gems you show on your videos. Plus, I can show your lessons to my husband so that he can learn Spanish and see how picturesque this town is.
This was really good! I was able to understand your accents in Spanish so well! I’m improving 😱😊
Can’t wait for more videos!!
Super helpful! We're going to have to get practising 😄 Thanks for sending the video through to us guys!!
Thanks guys! Glad you found it useful! ☺
Don't forget to use the index to jump right to the part you want to practice. We also have subtitles available in Spanish and English. Check out the blog post that goes along with this video here: spanishandgo.com/learn/how-to-order-food-in-spanish Thanks for watching!
It's funny for me to be watching this video, you know? I'm a native spanish speaker, and... Hearing how other people learn spanish is weird, because i see a lack in clearness and in forms, or words that aren't used at all. I guess i look that dumb to that Cambridge whatever guy that came last class yo be an example or something (?
Guys u are great 👌😍 continue
U have the best channel to learn spanish and culture👌😍😍😍😍gracias
I am learning Portuguese.🇧🇷🇵🇹
I angrily complain
@@mathv3761
Do you have some constructive advise and examples?
This is very helpful - I like the words spelled out in the video and the verbal Spanish and English translations - this is the best way to learn Spanish and shown with common activities like ordering food at a restaurant. Gracias
I hear “rico” a lot more often than “delicioso”
I do too. _Rico_ more commonly used in Mexico especially. Thanks for watching! -Jim
@@ReyCha96 😳 it's the deadly que rico papi, duo
¡riquísimo!

5:59 you can see the man feeding his daughter in the background for the same bite for 10 seconds lol
This is very helpful, thank you for the upload. I'm trying to muster up the courage to visit a Guatemalan restaurant in my neighborhood. I want to practice my Spanish while there, but I don't have enough vocabulary to do that just yet. But then I came across this video, took lots of notes. I will practice and hopefully I'll make it there this weekend.
I know you wrote this comment four years ago but I'd love to know how that went for you, and if you're still studying Spanish.
It's a very clear, hands on, easy to understand video ! thanks a lot !

Thanks for watching, Drew!
:)
This is really helpful
You guys are good. Very useful video
Thank you so much for taking the time to do these videos. It is very helpful the way you show actual situations and translate. I can sometimes translate when reading but I can't understand when spoken to. Even when an instructor speaks, I can piece together the information, but they usually speak slow. When native Mexicans speak, it is usually too fast for me to understand. I live in New Mexico, USA and my mom and dad are Spanish. Their first language was Spanish but when they were young, they would get in trouble at school if they didn't speak English. So they taught the kids (me) English and nothing more. I have the accent and I know some basic Spanish but I can't seem to get a grip on the language. I like how you show actual conversations with waiters, sales people, etc., then you break it down. After you slow down the speech, I usually understand. I go back and listen and it helps me to understand when they speak fast. Amazing! I hope you do more videos like this. It really helps. Thank you!
Thanks so much for your support! We have much more to come in this format. In the meantime, you can see all of our other videos in this style here: ua-cam.com/video/8E0XIF2uJCQ/v-deo.html
We truly appreciate the kind words and look forward to helping you improve your Spanish more with real world practical lessons. ¡Un saludo desde Puerto Rico! -Jim

Thanks, that was bueno. Voy a mirar a few more times today.
I just saw you today and I directly hit the subscribe button. You are explaining everything in an easy way and it’s just nice watching you! Definitely will watch your other videos, too! Muchas gracias!
I can’t get over how the direct translation of ‘te encargo’ is ‘I order you’. I found people in Mexico also say “me regalas un/una… por favor” for napkins etc. It feels better to me.
Yeah, I hear you. Not everyone likes it in Mexico either, but it doesn’t sound rude or demanding at all to most Mexicans. As with most things in language, tone and context are important. For example, in English and in Spanish, there are contexts where saying “give me….” when ordering are perfectly acceptable, even though it sounds quite demanding at face value.
Wow wow wow. This is a super helpful video for me. I loved it.
Guys, keep up the good work.
Stay safe.
Why isn't there more stuff like this on UA-cam! Very helpful, thank you.
