  • 1.4 – How To Say Good Morning, Good Afternoon, and Good Evening

    ¡Hola! Welcome to episode 1.4 of the Live Lingua Spanish Spanish Podcast. In this episode, we're going to learn how to say Good Morning (hint: we just did!), Good Afternoon, and Good Evening in Spanish. In order to say "Good Morning," you'd say: Buenos Dias

    In order to say "Good Afternoon," you'd say: "Buenas Tardes"

    In order to say "Good Evening," you'd say: "Buenas Noches"

    The one thing to pay attention to is the ending on the "Buenos," the "good" part. In the morning, it ends with an "-os," as the term is masculine.

    In the afternoon and evening, it ends in "-as", as the term is feminine.

    This is one of the most common errors I see people trying to learn Spanish make when they are trying to greet people in Mexico.

  • 1.3: Language & Cultural Notes

    ¡Hola! Welcome to m-episode 1.3 of the Live Lingua Spanish Podcast. ¿Ready to learn Spanish? In this m-episode, we're going to go over some basic language and cultural notes for the Spanish language.

    When you're learning another language, one of the most important things to understand is that it's not just about learning the words and vocabulary. I know this from personal experience when I was learning Spanish — it's about learning about the culture.

    There are certain things that make sense to English speakers that aren't done in the same way when you're speaking Spanish. An anecdotal story for me is that when I was first learning Spanish in Mexico, I would attempt to tell jokes. Even when I knew the words for the jokes, the jokes made absolutely no sense to the Mexicans. While I thought I was being hilarious, I was usually greeted with crickets. Sadly, this hasn't improved that much 10 years down the road, but I'm still working on it. But that's why it's so important to listen to the sections and understand what we say. because that will make this unit and all future units in the Live Lingua Spanish Podcasts make sense.

    Enjoy this m-episode. Let's get started. Empezamos.

  • 1.2: Conversation- Introduce Yourself & Others

    ¡Hola! Welcome to m-episode 1.2 of the Live Lingua Spanish Podcast.

    ¿Ready to learn Spanish?

    Conversations — the vehicle of language. Being able to properly introduce yourself is akin to hopping into the vehicle.

    This audio and text guide will show you how to do just that. This is a conversation between Ms. Laura Ramirez and her husband, Ray, who is an American that speaks a little bit of Spanish (yes, those are really our names!)

    They're meeting with someone called Miguel Gomez, and this episode is an introduction when they first meet. Then, the same conversation in Spanish. Don't worry if you can't understand it yet.

    We will break it down and practice it.

    Enjoy this m-episode.

    Let's get started!
