Hello there, after being asked by many people to launch
my podcast in other languages, I got the idea to share Spanish lessons, I have studied Spanish Grammar and Spanish Diction in different schools, in different parts of the world and I consider myself strong
enough to guide someone to learn Español.
When we are learning to communicate the most important aspect of the language we want to learn is the pronouns, their purpose and their job in the language we are trying to learn. Because Spanish unlike English does use the genre distinction with subjects and modifying adjectives.
Yo.- it is a strong sound of “J” and “o” for a sound like Joe
The next pronoun is the second person in singular:
Tu.- it is a sound almost like number 2, but not strong,
because we don’t use “t” sound, the t sound is Spanish is really dry and short like in
"tutu".
The next one is the third person in singular in male:
El.- which is simple and plain the sound of “L” (ex. El
Third person in feminine:
Ella, which is a mix of the vocals “a” & “o” and the
sound of ‘j” in the middle.
Eso, o esa In Spanish we refer to animals or things with
the genre they belong to, example:
El carro.- The car. // ese carro
La luna.- The moon. // esa luna
The following are the plural pronouns and same way as the singular denote the genre of the pronoun.
First person in plural form:
Nosotros.- We, for males or both genres.
Nosotras.- We for females ONLY.
Second person in plural form:
Ustedes,- You in plural (this does not have specific
Third person in plural form:
Ellos.- They for males and also for both genres
Ellas.- They for females ONLU.
Note the difference from second person of tu, (you)
singular form, from ustedes (you), Plural form.
Because this is a direct form of communication, you
always know which one you are using, for example if you are talking to just one
person, then you are going to use tu, but if you are talking to more than one
person then the pronoun changes from tu to “Ustedes”
After learning the personal pronouns, you will make a
little bit of sense of how the verbs are conjugated in present, past and future
For easier learning we will use the most common verbs in
present tense be aware that these verbs are also auxiliary in conjugating verbs
in past and future tense.
Ser.- this verb literally translates to the verb “to be”
related to who the subject is, “to be at” related to location where the subject
is, or “to be in” describing the subject in English.
Nosotros somos, o estamos Nosotras, somos o estamos
Ellos son, o están Ellas son, o estan.
This conjugation form is present in almost every
The following verb is hacer, which literally translates
The next verb is poder, which means can or being able to
Once you dominate these 3 verbs, you can
structure short sentences, and it will be very easy for you to start making 3-
Gracias por aprender Español, hasta la proxima!
