Excellent video, this pointed out why I have struggled so much trying to learn Spanish for years. Verbs especially have been very difficult for me, so complicated! And I have never stood why give objects a gender? And change adjectives depending on gender and number of the noun? Anyway, thanks Maura you are a really good teacher, and I enjoy the humor you include in your videos!
@margaritakleinman5701

Giving objects and adjectives a gender may seem strange to English speakers because English is not a gendered language, except for a few nouns. But all the romance languages including Spanish, are gendered.

This is a side note from the main topic here. What I've noticed in these couple months re-pursuing Spanish since my introduction to it in 1992, is that both Y and LL are not pronounced like the Y in "yes" or "yellow," but instead, like J in the name "Jess" or the word "jello." Oddly enough, though the "chunks" are brilliant at helping me "sound Mexican," my Y an LL need a serious overhaul and is my only problema de pronunciacion thus far. So I'll just have to spend hours and hours and hours watching and listening to profesora Maura until I get it right. Estoy poco madre!

I think here in San Diego, and Northern Mexico they say it more like "y" but when I lived in the bajio, or central Mexico, they taught me to use the "j" sound for y and ll. My Spanish is now my own, I say things how I want. lol
@nadiapitarch5870

Y and LL have different sounds depending on the region or country the native speaker is coming from. Basically the sounds are like Y (as in yellow), or J (as in John) or even SH (as in she or shopping) and all of them are considered correct. So you can use whatever you want or you feel comfortable. If you use the Y sound or the J sound, you'll be understood by everyone cause those are more spread and common. If you use the SH sound, it might sound confusing for some people occasionally (not often). The other sounds tend to be more standard. For example, Y sound is used by Puertoricans, Dominicans or Cubans. J sound is used in regions of Mexico, Spain, Peru or Colombia. SH sound is used in Argentina and Uruguay, though not every Argentinian use it, some use J sound. So, don't mess yourself up with this, it's not worth it. Just make the pronunciation that's easier for you and you'll be fine.

Temporary and permanent isn't a good rule to teach the use of SER and ESTAR. ESTAR is used as a result of a process, whether that result is temporary or permanent. SER is used to characterize something, to describe it, to talk about its essence, to talk about its content, etc, whether those characteristics or descriptions are permanent or temporary. ESTAR is used for locations with the exception of events taking place (the only exception that we use SER).

Un ejemplo perfecto de la diferencia entre "ser" y "estar" se encuentra en la obra de Tirso de Molino, "El burlador de Sevilla". Cuando el aterrorizado personaje Catalinon se encuentra con el fantasma de don Gonzalo en la tumba de este último, dice: "Soy muerto". El fantasma responde "No. Tú estás muerto. Yo soy muerto". El susto de Catalinon es temporal, pero la condición del fantasma es permanente.

⭐⭐⭐ I'm not advanced enough to really understand the difference between the sentences, but my guess is that "es salado" means that it literally contains a lot of salt, while "está salado" is more figurative. In English, we talk about "salty language" or describe people as salty if they are crude, angry, or maybe sexually charged.

Good catch. According to DeepL “No lo creo” means “I don’t think so” and “No le creo” means “I don’t believe him/her/you(formal)”. Maybe in Spanish creer is an intransitive verb, which would explain the “le”. Or maybe it’s idiosyncratic so there’s a way to say I don’t think so. Would love an expert’s thoughts.

Lo and la are indirect object pronouns I believe. If you want to say, “ I want the dog” would would say, “ Yo quiero el perro” but you can replace “the dog” with “it” so you would say, “ Lo quiero” if the dog is a boy, and “la quiero” if the dog is a girl

And for “le” that I’d s direct object pronoun I believe. So if you want to say “I’m going to give Connor the gift” would would say, “voy a dar un regalo a Connor” but instead of that, you could say” I’m going to give him a gift” which is “ voy a darle un regalo.

Hi Shannon! Thanks for your question. Jack did a GREAT job at explaining the difference down below, only that LO, LA, LOS and LAS are replacing DIRECT objects. While LE, LES and SE are replacing INDIRECT objects. That's why I said, "sometimes you can think about HIM as LO". If we go deep into the grammar, this "sometimes" is precisely when you're replacing a direct object. As in: LO llamo mañana (I'll call HIM tomorrow). When you replace indirect objects the gender doesn't matter so you would use LE both for HIM and HER when the object is singular. As in: LE compré un regalo. (I bought HER/HIM a gift). This sentence doesn't specify whether the recipient of the gift is a SHE or a HE. You would use LES for THEY. I hope this helps! We do have more in depth videos on this particular subject in case you want to understand it better. =)

El pollo está salado. El mar es salado. Verb tenses aren't that different between English and Spanish; Bulgarian and Russian tenses are a lot more different from Spanish (and from each other, despite both being Slavic). The main difference is that "was" corresponds to both "fue" and "era".

I think one difference is that in English the present isn't really present, it's more habitual but in Spanish the present can be used more for the present, as well as habitual. Present progressive is really our present tense in English. That's my take, could be off, though. Another difference I've noticed is that we use the present perfect when in Spanish they'd use the ...I can't think what it's called. Like instead of have they'd say had, or habia instead of he/ha. (pluperfect, looked it up) I can't think of any good examples but these are things I've noticed. One more thing is, at least in Mexico, they say le when I'd think that it should be lo. Again, I can't think of an example, but if I do I'll add it.
