I've used Duolingo for 5 years for French, Spanish and Japanese! It's a good app for building vocabulary, but it's not good if you're trying to become fluent in speaking! In Duolingo, I get frustrated when I type out a 15 word answer and get it wrong, because I forgot an "s" in one of the words... I mean, in conversation, nobody cares if you've forgotten a single letter lol.

The trick with Duolingo is it doesn't stand by itself. For me I'm doing the following: 1) Duolingo, I got a paid subscription and do it quite regularly. 2) Using @Spanish with Qroo Paul (this channel) to understand theory, this video is great and I'm going to work through the whole series. 3) Also in youtube, studying the alphabet, numbers, telling time. 4) I got a tutor. 5) Starting to watch youtube videos that are in Spanish. 6) Learning the lyrics of spanish songs I happen to like (I'm into salsa dancing). 7) Soon I'll be practicing face to face at meetups...

Thank you for your very clear and confidence-building way to learn Spanish - it's great. FYI...re your comment about the double consonants in English, for example in 'recommendation', there is, in fact, a grammar rule called the 'double the consonant' rule, which ties in with a rule called the 'vowel-consonant-vowel' rule. This states that if you have a word like 'tap' (with a short 'a' sound) and you want to make it continuous, you have to double the consonant to make it 'tapping'... otherwise it would become 'taping'. .. and tape is a vowel/consonant/vowel word (with a long vowel sound). Therefore, as the letter 'o' in the word 'recommendation' is a short vowel, it's necessary to double the 'm' after it to keep it sounding short. I hope that's clear...and yes, I am an English Teacher...! 😀

I have a question if anyone can answer - I thought (and Paul says) that double l sounds like a y - as in torti-ya. But I just started a formal Spanish class and my (Columbian) teacher says it is pronounced like a j. Is this a regional variation, or is someone wrong here? I think she also said Y as a first letter is pronounced J - so not "yo soy" but it would sound like "jo soy"

Despite having a number of years of Spanish I picked up on a few tidbits. The bigger picture you present is to look for commonalities and patterns. I love learning Spanish because for me it's like a puzzle. I enjoy the challenge of figuring out how the sentence fits together in context. I believe there is a certain amount of memorizing and learning proper grammar required (typical language teachers focus on this aspect). I've never been taught Spanish by a native english speaker. The fact that you have on the ground experience is a huge benefit. Thanks for your efforts.

First I have to say you are doing a great job to help English speakers to learn Spanish, sometimes it is an advantage to come from own experience as a learner than from university with an academic approach to teach people. At the age of 65 I started to learn Spanish just for fun. One of the first things I discovered were the many similarities between English and Spanish. Even for a German native, it makes absolute sense to learn Spanish from English instead of learning from German. Only when it comes to pronunciation it is an advantage to be a German native speaker, we use a lot of similar sounds like the Spanish and even the pronunciation rules are often similar, even when the writings are different. Beside the similarities for the endings .. al and the change from ..tion to ..ción I discovered another one, the change form ..ty to ..dad for many words like society->sociedad, university->universidad and another good thing is, the ..dad endings like the ..ción endings are always female, "La conversación en la universidad era muy formal."

The trouble with English latin/Norman French words is that while numerically dominant they are used more in formal settings such as legal and eclesiásticas settings. Its down to post 1066 history. 60% of everday spoken English, at least in the UK has its roots in Anglo Saxon Old English. I grew up RC when Sunday Mass was in Latin. I also went to Grammar school when French and Latin were core subjects so I have a foot in both language camps. 😂😊

If you’ve only been watching Paul’s videos for a short time, and you’re skeptical about sponsored videos (welcome to social media!) then maybe you haven’t come to know him and to trust that what he’s recommending is well thought out and is what he believes in. But if like me, you’ve been watching him for a long time, then that’s a harsh judgment.

Brilliant! This first lesson contained far more informacion* about Spanish than my first 10 Babbel lessons. The organización* is clear and well thought out and the presenter’s outline ingeniously anticipates the PRACTICAL needs of an English-speaking beginner trying to learn Spanish. ThisQroo Paul fella is an excellent communicator as well as an inspired teacher and has given me back my expat sparkle for attempting to learn a new language. One tip (or perhaps, warning). If this single video were a meal, it would be considered a large feast. Albeit only about a half hour long, it is VERY calorie dense - linguistically. So you may need to take small bites, pause, and chew on what you have learned at various points. And you may not be able to finish it all in one sitting. I myself plan to return to the lesson as I would a favorite restaurant. It’s that good. *I learn this “ación” trick of converting English words to Spanish in this first lesson!

I liked this one again! I guess my old like got wiped out when you reposted. My Qroo Paul Word list has 104 words on it now! These are a list of all the words used in the first two episodes of your new series. Like I said last time I was really surprised how few of the cognates were on the "1000 basic words" list. This number does not count all the definite and indefinite articles you introduced. On the TV Spanish News program I watched last night has the word "invitar" but I checked and "invasion" in English, which I learned is spelled with a "s" and not a "t" is "invasión" in Spanish. These videos look fantastic production wise. One thing is that I noticed that for much of the time your hands are below the frame and we can't see them. You have to take a year of language to get a degree here at Sacramento State. I took a crash summer school class in ASL, (American Sign Language) which is the hand sign language used by deaf people. I also took some classes in railroad operations where I learned a little about the railroad hand signals that rail road folks use. My point is that your hand movements and facial expression carry meaning. But if your hands are out of the frame we can't see them. I thought that it might be from your years of police work that you keep your hand gestures close to your belt line just in case you need to use your service weapons. You are so perfectly framed in these shots that I don't want to suggest pulling the camera back and making you smaller. Maybe if you thought about it you could make your hand gestures higher. It is cool that even now you raise your hands up into the frame to emphasize an important point. My guess is that just me making you aware of how your viewers see or don't see your hands will help you to keep your hands in the shot frame when you want them there. Here is a quick question. At the taco stand that I frequent on weekends I get a burrito and a Spanish lesson every night. They are trying to teach me how to say mild as in not spicy. I was hearing "Pesoso" but I checked and this isn't a Spanish word. I am starting to think they were saying "picoso" as in "un poco picoso". The other theory I had at first was that I was hearing "soso" which is on my basic word list as "bland". Well anyway any incite you can give me on what I was hearing would be great. These videos are great Paul, keep up the good work.

Cuando conviertes las palabras que terminan en "ción" al plural "ciones" debes quitar el acento, la fuerza (stress) se mantiene sobre la o (cion) pero la palabra pasa a ser llana al añadir "es" La regla de acentuación es así: Las que terminan en N, S o Vocal y la fuerza cae en la última sílaba (se llaman 'agudas' y hay que acentuarlas. Si no terminan en N, S o vocal entonces no se acentúan. Si recae en la penúltima se llaman llanas y si termina en N, S o Vocal no hay que acentuarlas, si no tienen esa terminación entonces sí se acentuan. Y si recae en la antepenúltima (esdrújulas) o antes (anteesdrujulas) se acentúan todas independientemente de su terminación. Un saludo

Hello from Bogota I'm learning Spanish and using a white man for my lessons is perfect because all I keep thinking is if Paul was able to do I can do it also. Plus it's easier understanding Paul rather then learning from a native Spanish speaker. Thanks Paul

Spending time learning Czech has prepared me for Spanish grammar because I don't suspect I have to inflect for literally everything like in czech so that's nice

Just great presentation! Looking forward to more. The second m in recommendation is there to keep us from saying the long "o" . Later is different from Latter.

Hello Qroo, I was looking for Spanish lessons on youtube and found your channel. I am a beginner at learning Spanish and the reason being, that a friend's mother is visiting from Colombia, for a few months, and I want to be able to talk to her. Even if it is only to say hello, how are you? But I have to say that I really enjoyed my first lesson with you. So, I want to know what to do next. Do I keep doing homework with the information that you gave in lesson one, and for how long? Or, do I move straight on to lesson two? I don't want to frazzle my 58 year old brain with an overload of information. Warm regards from, Gina Mac of Queensland, Australia. 😊❤️🙏🇦🇺🐨

Hi Gina. Go on to Lesson 2 and see how you do. I pack a lot of information into one lesson. The idea is that students can go back and watch the whole video or parts of the video as many times as they need to.

Recommendation: needs 2 m's to make the o sound /ah/. Otherwise the letter e after the m would signal the o to sound /oh/. I think that's why. Anyway, where have you been for 30 years! Loving these videos!❤

Actually, we pronounce it more of a schwa. /ə/. Good grief. No wonder it is do difficult to teach English.

As a spaniard May I say that the soft "c" only sounds "s" in latin america and the south of spain. The neutral castillian pronounciation is "z" . So, depends in wich country you are. Magnificent lesson. I have serious dificulty with english "r" and vowels 😂

Hi Paul, the purpose of the double consonants in recommendation and communication etc, is to shorten the preceding vowel sound. If there were only one consonant, the o would be a long sound (ohhh). Why we need to do this is another (more complex) matter. Great video, by the way. I am using Pimsleur (which is great) and have been using Duolingo, although I find that little sticks so I will be discontinuing. I'm looking forward to studying with you and learning about the grammar and building blocks of the language, which Pimsleur doesn't teach. Thanks so much for your clear and thorough teaching style. From a fellow teacher.

This is amazing. As said ad nauseam, your explanation is fantastic. Duolingo learner here (nearly done with the 2nd level) but you have simplified the process significantly. On another note, as someone who is already fully bilingual (English and Afrikaans) I fortunately don't have a problem with the rolling "rr" as you roll the "r" in Afrikaans. The phonetic pronunciation of Spanish words is also easy as it follows the pronunciation of letters in the alphabet in Afrikaans (when pronounced as individual letters). Thank you, dankie, gracias!

So I’m a Hispanic that never was able to learn Spanish as I was born in the US and my family spoke primarily English . I finally feel like I have the courage to really try to learn now. This lesson could’ve saved me years of frustration had I seen this earlier 😭 I’m gonna stick with the course cause I bet I’ll finish learning my language that’s part of my culture and families culture! Thanks so much

Qroo, I really enjoyed this lesson. It has taken me two days to get through it. But I did it. I was writing and following along as instructed. So I'm taking a day or two to review this lesson before moving on. Thank you for putting this information out there. It's been easy to follow and I like it.

This was SO helpful! I really want to learn Spanish, as I have friends from Mexico who only speak Spanish, and we have to use the Internet on our phones to translate everything we say. (They are also trying to learn English.) Over the past year or so, I've tried many apps, books, and websites (even paid for) to learn Spanish and finally gave up. It became hard to devote the time to practice each day when it didn't seem to make a difference. But this one video taught me more than all those previous efforts together. You are a great teacher, and I look forward to the next videos. Thank you!!
