- In this video I’m going to show you how to think about the Spanish verbs tener vs haber.
Specifically, you’re going to learn when to use each of these Spanish verbs accurately despite the fact that they are both the translation of the English verb “to have”.
With that said, here is a quick preview of what you’ll learn:
- How to use the Spanish verb tener to talk about possession and ownership
- How the Spanish verb haber is slightly more complicated than most Spanish verbs and how you should think about it.
- How to use Spanish verb haber using the impersonal form
- How to use verb haber in the form we need to talk about events in the past

How else can you use the Spanish verbs 'tener' and 'haber'?
Could you please make a video on the difference between Tener + Participio and Haber + Participio? Thanks in advance.
It's really fun to learn watching with all real life videos using the words and
facts (ex. word origin).

Really like the use you make of short clips featuring Spanish speakers. Very cool and helpful.
Glad you like them! 😀
@@realfastspanish Please credit those short clips. Thank you
@@ryuorkai He's already doing a ton of work putting these videos together!
It's a clear illustration that when he speaks I understand him. Cut to the clip, no idea what they just said. :)
Just found your videos. I really appreciate how you include clips of native speakers using your example sentences!
Glad you like them! 😊
I've got gaps in learning Spanish. Finally you've sorted it out for me. Thanks, your a good teacher
I just learned “he estado ___”. He estado estudiando cada día. And now this is thrown out there. 🤯
As a newbie native spanish tutor. ¡Gracias! I had never noticed that.
Really enjoy the lesson... love how you incorporated short clips from Spanish tv and film. You make Spanish grammer fun which isnt the easy thing to do.
Oh my god I've been trying to find someone to explain the Spanish equivalent of quote "to have to" and this is the best. ❤️
Comprehensive and intelligent explanation with illuminating examples, which are always important for better understanding. Also, I like the way you blend in native speakers. Thanks.
Thanks for the feedback and kind words!!
I never bothered looking up what he meant in Spanish because whenever I tried to look it up on the website I used it would give me the English definition. Today I finally decided to learn. This video was entertaining and motivating. Thank you for making this awesome video.
I love your examples because they teach other subtle phrases that are so helpful!!! Thank you!!
The American colloquial version of “es lo que hay” would be “it is what it is”
gracias. eso es lo que estaba pensando.
It is what it izzzzzzz🤣
American? lol. As opposed to "English"?
@@Homoskedastic1 yes. American english is different from other versions of English.
@@Homoskedastic1 Yeah, American, cuz I don’t know if other English speaking countries have the same colloquialisms as in America duh
It's wonderful how you use small clips in between to explain the usage.
I'm glad you like the clips! 😊
Thank you so much for your short clear explanations. You are now my go to for any questions I have in my beginning to learn Spanish journey!
This video was awesome. Your teaching method is incredibly easy to follow.

That’s great, thanks 🇬🇧❤
Thank you for the help im gonna share this video!
Awesome thank you!
This is my first video i saw of you. I will learn English with your videos. You have a good Canal of CZcams. I love foreign languages. Soy profesor de francés lenguas extranjeras. No tengo ni idea, why English is very difficult for me? I love because you teach my language. Saludos de Yorito, Yoro Honduras, Centroamérica. 😉👌🤗😊
¡Gracias Hermes! 😊
Well done. TY, Wm from Vancouver.
Great lesson!
Best explanation and I've watched many om CZcams
you doing good. thank you teacher,
Quito saber más concierne el verbo “poder”, especialmente cuando es conectando con otro verbo, como “poder ser.” Gracias. Aprecio mucho sus vídeos claros y matices.
U r a good teacher
Va a ser desorden porque desorden es lo que hay = There is going to be chaos/entropy because chaos/entropy is all there is. (Close translation for those who are wondering.) Side note: Love your videos my guy
Thanks bro, really helped me! Gracias :)
I really prefer a teacher whose main language is English like this guy. He's far easier to understand for me as sort of a beginner. I have watchhed the videos by Anna the Spanish lady and she is really cool but she's nowhere near as good of a true teacher as perhaps this guy. She has a really nice personality but I'm really not impressed with her overall teaching skills from the perspective of an English-speaking person trying to learn Spanish. I've always had a really hard time figuring out this language despite playing around with it for 3 or 4 years. I live in Ecuador and I just use Spanglish all the time and I never seem to progress at all beyond that. So I'm trying to actually learn the language and I just started looking at CZcams videos. I've used Duolingo but it's so slow it's ridiculous. So far this guy looks quite good. I'm going to check out other teachers whose main language is English as well.
Geweldige uitleg!! MUCHAS gracias!

Best teaching👍👍
Enseñas genial, saludos de una hispanohablante.
Hi, your language is confusing to us sometimes, especially when using the pronouns like le, les, lo, las.
Thank you
@@Dubai892JK those pronouns are important, and they make the language more complete hahaha. But I agree that it’s a confusing language.
:) greetings from Mexico.
mucho gracias
me gustaría el video! muy bien!
Really like it 😊
Where are the clips from? Can you give channel names if they’re from CZcams. Amazing video, I loved the use of the clips.
Subscribed!
Sometimes you forget to translate your examples. Thank you for what you do.
Excellent
Dado que soy un hablante de nivel intermedio bajo, su enseñanza es muy útil para la comprensión. Gracias. . ¿Tienes una escuela de aprendizaje de conversación en español?
Until this video, it never occurred to me that "tener" and "haber" could be confused as meaning the same thing. Given all the weird mistakes I've made on my language journey, I'm glad that I didn't have this one. Nevertheless, as always, your video was very good. I really like the video clips you use. Is there any way that you could play the video clips twice? You always pronounce the sentences twice, but the video clips just go by so quickly!
Thanks for the feedback and the suggestion 😀
Cora, I just rewind it to hear it again.
Clear lesson as usual with examples.
I would like a follow up to Haber-and tener with past and future. These words are so common
Great suggestion! 😀
Your channel is my new favorite because of your explanations broken down so clearly. A lot of holes are being filled in my understanding. Can you tell me, what is the book on top of your shelf with the pencils on the cover? Thank you for your fantastic channel. Estoy feliz que he encontrado otro bolillo que puede clarificar mi Espanol. Muchisimas gracias. 🙂
¡Gracias Chris! 😊 The thing on my book self is one of my favourite quotes of all time: "That's the very reason they put rubbers on pencils, because people make mistakes." It's an important quote for perfectionists!
@@realfastspanish
Thank you for the quick response!
That is a GREAT quote. Thank you for sharing it with me. I'm so happy I found your channel to supplement and improve my Spanish.
Just discovered your channel cause I heard the sentence "no podría haber estado más equivocado" meaning I couldn't have been more wrong, and it made me wonder about the uses of haber vs tener, and got to admit I'm still a little confused haha
Yes, it's not easy! But, if you focus on the idea of possession versus an action in time, it will start to unravel.
Muy buen para explicar
Muy bueno para explicar
excellent
It's easy for the bilingual to understand this things because in Filipino language we used, "Meron, Mayroon, May" and also sino and pero is like but, but our sino is "kundi" , and pero is "pero, or ngunit"
You made it Supereasy. Can You suggest me a book to learn Esnañol in better way.
You can use haber as kind of "soft destiny" or fulfilment....
Yo he de graduarme...... / Tengo que graudarme.........(Eventually I will graduate) ( I have to graduate ) (it is my destiny)
It can overlap with the statement of having something to do
The basic form is "haber de"
He de graduarme
Has de graduarte
Ha de graduarse
Hemos de graduarnos, etc
A great video as usual. Thank you! A question: In the sentence No hay nada que celebrar. I don’t understand the use of que. It translates as ‘to’ in English here- but what’s the grammatical origin of the structure?
DEBÍ HABER TENIDO éste maestro antes 🙊
❤❤❤
I love the way explain 😊 que= to from u
❤
Thanks for this useful video. Is there a reason why you did not mention vosotros forms of the verbs? I know that form is not used in latin america.
Yes, that’s right. We only need “vosotros” in Spain. And we need “vos” in Argentina. And I avoid those forms on the channel.
Great video! There is a lot of useful information on this channel! I'd like to recommend the excellent book by Yuriy Ivantsiv Polyglot Notes: Practical Tips for Learning a Foreign Language. This workshop contains many methods for learning a foreign language, showing how to use modern technology. The practicum will help everyone who is studying a foreign language on their own or with a teacher! Good luck to everyone! Thanks to the author for the work!
He dicho is different than yo dije. With he dicho something else must follow but with dije it is said and done n nothing more need be said. dije que no estoy en casa....vs.......He dicho esto muchas veces antes. So they really are NOT the same.
I understand the tener. I will just remember the tener uses.
I wonder what the movie it is at 5:55 can anyone tell me? thanks
very helpful video and I got some great ideas from it, but "any questions"? lol.... Hacer is not a verb that will be completely understood without a LOT of practice and work lol
Very true Lynn!!! Regular practice is really important! 😊
Gracias Timothy. This is a phrase that really sent me off the rails because it deviates from the usual rules.
Debe haber habido un problema, pero no es tu culpa.
I would have thought about using sido or estado here instead of habido
Please clarify.
There must have been a problem ( We are guessing about the existence of a problem)
Debe = must
haber habido = there have been => there have = haber....... habido = there been.
a bit confusing... as a native spanish speaker i would normally translate like that :
Debe haber habido un problema = "There must have been a problem "
I remember tripping over the triple verbs in a row with the infinitive in the middle but its the same in english, "I could have said" / "pude haber dicho". That really messed with my brain at first
I've listened to the talk show host (5:37) say 'pero esto, que es?' over and over. I hear 'pero todo, que es'. Am I wrong?
the random video references are so funny 😭
Es lo que hay = it is what it is
It's uncanny how you found in popular culture clips that precisely demonstrate your examples.
Or maybe he saw the show and just used it for the lesson.
@@zigman3105 Yup.
My Merriam-Webster's Dictionary says I can say "tenia pensado escribirte" meaning I have been thinking of writing to you. Is that correct? Can I conjugate tener instead of haber to form the present perfect tense?
Translation is sometimes an art and sometimes science. We could translate the Spanish into English as "I thought..." or "I was thinking..." which means we don't need the present perfect in English for this translation.
@@realfastspanish I would say in spanish: "I had thought writing you" more close to spanish version.
Question: As the impersonal translation of haber is to exist, and the translation of ester is to be, can we use “he habido” and “he estado” to say “I have been?”
"I have been..." can be translated to "yo he estado..." or "yo he sido...". "yo he habido" is wrong and doesn't make any sense.
Where do you get spanish flashcards?
I’d like to see the past tense of haber (había, etc).
(Yo) hube or había = I had.
(Tú) hubiste or habías = You had
(Él/Ella/Usted) Hubo or Había = He/She/You (formal) had.
Nosotros hubimos or habíamos = We had.
Ustedes hubieron or habían = You all had.
Ellos/Ellas hubieron or habían = They had.
This is the preterite and the imperfect.
adjectives I need to know more of that way I can understand how to use these verbs, he has ha hamos han those are the endings y'all and haste for Spain too
