    I remember once I said, "¡Estoy estática!" And the person I was talking to very politely told me "estoy entusiasmada" or "estoy emocionada" sounds better because what I said has a sensual meaning... 😶😶😆😆😆

      Mmm I think you didn't use estática but exitada, that has a sensual meaning.

    I love your video's. I moved to Puerto Rico with limited spanish and yes! It was diffuclt to understand and speak Puerto Rican spanish. I love the Puerto Rican language and your video's are helping me. I'm returning to Puerto Rico in a few months and trying to absorb all the help I can. I would love it if you were able to keep the words or phrases on the screen until the next word or phrase. I try to write and practice with you. When I press pause, the words are then covered by other CZcams options.
    Thank you so much for all you are offering and as I'm able I plan to send some financial gratitude!

    Thanks for your awesome explanations! I’m learning so much from you. Quick question, after learning Spanish for 80 days now, I’ve not come across the “ü” I’m any words yet. Is this only used in certain Spanish dialects or are there more words with Ü? I’ve just never come across any word with that letter. Only ever seen either an accent or a tilde over a letter.

      Usually the dieresis is used for foreign sounds, not typical in spanish. Often aboriginal/native words or germanic words uses that sound. In german dieresis is called an 'umlaut'.

    These are called “false friends”. Meaning: a word or expression that has a similar form to one in a person's native language, but a different meaning.

    It seems that it's because it's the etymology (meaning: study of words and/or their history) that gives different meanings.
    The enviroment can invariably change the language to suit the speaker's needs. This is why you might see some words in Spanish but not in English, and so on, for all languages.

    • @OffGridInvestor
      @OffGridInvestor Před 2 lety

      In Europe there's enough Latin that quite a few words overlap. Then you get german and that's a WHOLE DIFFERENT mess.

    In English molest does mean bother just the same. At the zoo it's common to see the sign "Don't molest the animals" of course they are not talking about sexual molestation, just molesting. I'll give you that it's not as common in English to be used outside of sexual or animals though
