Watch I Love Lucy each morning. Am 74, remember watching the episodes when they were not reruns. Lucy and Desi really loved kids. You can see the love in the interaction with Little Ricky and other kids on the show.
Lucy: well that's different Spanish is a foreign language Ricky: well english is a foreign language to me Lucy: well the way you speak it it is to me too 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I always loved this show. I started watching it with my grandma and it was the episode when Lucy and Ricky moved out into the country and Ethel and Fred went over to visit them. Spanish is a hard language to learn. I always wanted to learn Spanish cuz jobs now days it seems like they won't hire u unless u know Spanish because not everybody understands English. I wanted to take Spanish in high school but they wouldn't let me take it because they said just cuz I have a learning disability that it be to hard for me. I got discriminated because of it. They would say I cant do this, can't do that and put me down all the time sense kindergarten but I proved everybody wrong. First of all mine is minor not severe, I can work, I can read, I can drive, I got a drivers license, I can cook, I can bake, I can tell time, I can count money, I'm more independent then most of the kids that were in my class. And im proud of it. Maybe if I decide to go to college I'll take Spanish. I think it be fun to learn to a new language. I know a few words in Spanish but thats about it.
@@rolandomota9258 OK. Just so u know I wasn't bad mouthing people that do speak Spanish I just know some people don't know English and I know a person that they do under English and they can speak English just not very well so they had a translater .
The truth is Spanish is one of the easiest languages you can learn because it's consistent, especially compared to English which is wrought with irregularities. Pronunciation can be a challenge tho if ur tone deaf or have a hard time mimicking sounds in general. As a kid, I couldn't roll an 'r' to save my life.
@@QuietlyCurious okay. Just alot of people told me that it's a hard language to learn. Teachers mainly when I was in school of course u read about that.
Kudos to you for overcoming your difficulties! It's never too late to learn Spanish - or any other language for that matter. I'm actually striving to refresh and expand on my 4 years of Spanish decades ago in high school. There are actually inexpensive and even free apps and Web sites where you can learn languages at your leisure. Eventually when I feel comfortable enough, I want to add learning French & German to the mix - this way I could have the language capabilities of the police officer, the drunk and Ricky in the episode where Lucy is duped into getting counterfeit francs in Paris and ends up in jail as a resutl.
"Latino" is an ethnicity not a race. A Latino can be white, black, mixed, even Asian! Desi was of Spanish ancestry and Spain is in Europe. It was, therefore, an intercultural not interracial couple. That said, I agree that its nice to see interracial couples and people getting along, but Desi and Lucy are not an example.
Lucille Ball had to fight to get Desi Arnaz to actually play her on-screen husband. The producers thought it was unbelievable that they would be married, even if they WERE! She pointed out how he fought in the US army during WWII, how he was against communism (due to his experience in Cuba), and how they showed on-screen chemistry.
I'm curious, was this played up for comedy, or was it really believable to know absolutely nothing in Spanish in the 1950's? All of the words she's struggling with I learned from watching Sesame Street, which came along at the end of the following decade. So did a lot of other people in the United States, which is why even though majority of people I know here don't speak Spanish, I don't think I've met anybody that doesn't at least know how to say hello and thank you.
The US was more isolated in the 1950s immigrants were expected to assimilate and there was much less international travel. Lucy's lack of Spanish expertise is believable for an average woman or man of the 1950s, except that I would expect the spouse of a Cuban immigrant to have picked up at least a little Spanish. Ricky's mispronunciations and grammatical errors were played up for comedy as was Lucy's lack of expertise
@@snowangelnc That's exactly what he was doing - translating. He said, specifically -' It means ' mama '. That's the textbook definition of 'translating'. Then he should have been clear -' It means my mother, but his grandmother '. He said -' It means ' mama '. No. It doesn't. It means, specifically -' Grandmother '. That's like me saying -' Wife means ' Sister in Law'.
@robinrobyn1714 watch the clip again. Lucy says, "I'm so nervous I can't remember my own name," to which little Ricky responds, "it's mommy," referring to Lucy.
He said you couldn’t say buenos días (good morning) because it was no longer morning he told her to say buenas noches (good evening) when she greeted them because it was now evening.
@@valkelly3054 That doesn't answer my question. When you say "good night" in English it is a parting, not a greeting, so I was curious if it was the same in Spanish.
@@walmartpimp2 it is both a greeting and parting in Spanish translated as either good night or good evening depending on context. Although not as common in English good evening can also be used as a greeting where as good night is not.
@@jasonpalacios2705 enough with the race baiting you weirdo. btw spanish is a european language just like french. you act like spanish came from latin america. get real.
I hope the actor who played Little Ricky continued learning Spanish. Perfect age to learn and he seems genuinely enthusiastic
Oh, yes indeed. He said "abuela" so nicely.
So do I
It's Desi Arnaz Jr., Lucy and Desi's son.
@@alrivera8363 No is not,little Ricky was play by Keith Thibodeaux,before that the character was play by twins when he was a baby.
@@alrivera8363 it’s not Desi Arnaz it’s Keith Thibedaux not sure if it’s spelled correctly

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Como esta usted?" was adorable
She was so pretty. A classic beauty.
You're right. I never realized how gorgeous she was until recent years.
She was a movie star before she and Desi created the show
I loved Lucy's dress in this clip. How adorable!
Awwwww the part where Ricky and Little Ricky played the drums was so sweet yet awesome!!
I've been saying 'Macho Graza' my entire life because of this show. I know it isn't correct, but it amuses me and perturbs my coworkers.
Whalecum
Nicee
In Spanish Macho Grasa is correctly pronounced Mucho Grasa-This means Too Much Fat or Too Much Grease!😃😄
ur calling them fat in Spanish ☠️
@@user-jw5uw1vs5pmucha grasa!!! No mucho grasa!
I always loved the part were Ricky and lil Ricky were playing the drums.
Bongos.
lil Ricky:owaowaoway
Ricky:olaolaolaolaola
Is this a ritual

Rest In Peace Lucille Desiree Ball Morton August 6, 1911-April 26, 1989
I like her Lucy and Desi make a good couple they have a beautiful family
Hahahahahahaha Lucy y Ricky me matan de risa😂😂😂
La palabra corecta en espanol/castellano es"Sonrisa"???😃😄
@@user-jw5uw1vs5pRisa means laugh
@@Duquedecastro Si ya yo se!

So nice to see a white and a Latino couple we all humans it should never be about race more about getting along with each other

Desi was white
Desi was of Spanish decent. And he was considered white
No way she insult the *KING OF THE HOUSE*
Wasn’t there an episode where she tried to say “gracias” but says “grassy ass”?
u mean where she supposedly called Alberto a "fat pig" in Spanish? well that's this episode dear
@@smoreblox3485 no,, dear. That was not my intended question.
@@donnareed9060oh I think I found out what u meant. is it the episode where Ricky's mother came to visit the Ricardos?
Yes. I'm pretty sure it's the episode where she auditions as a dancer, Lucy and Ricky dance to Cuban Pete.
Lucy tells Ricky she's a size 12, but rips the dress. He yells at her in Spanish.
:31 to :46 is the best part of the whole thing.
🥰🥰🥰❤❤❤❤rip Ricky and luck
Por favor...Adios 🤣🤣🤣🤣
those stunning clothes!
She was funny
Between Lucy and HSM
The hispanic guy is puerto rican or cuban or mexican?
@@BluKatDiamond thank you. I tought he was puerto rican.
El actor Desi Arnaz ere cubano.
He was Cuban.
Nice nice

Abuela means Grandma. Not mom
True, but he wasn't translating. He was referring specifically to his own mom, his son's grandma.

Subtitulos en Español por favor 🙏🏻 🙌 😩 😥 😭 😢😢😢😢😢
I bet you that Lucy's husband was French, she would have been fluent in French 100%.
In real life Lucy did have a French name-It was her middle name,and it was Desiree!🥰😇
@@user-jw5uw1vs5p So what's your point?
@@jasonpalacios2705 enough with the race baiting you weirdo. btw spanish is a european language just like french. you act like spanish came from latin america. get real.
Ricky´s Spanish is not much better than his English....I wonder If he did it on purpose.
