    In the Philippines, our grandmas and grandpas' names are so strange like Escolastico, Remegia, Feliciano, Serafin,etc which are influenced by the spaniards. And our names today are Dwight, Leahna, Kim, Jonathan, etc which are englisized.
    The famous family names in the Philippines are:
    Garcia
    Mendoza
    Dela Cruz
    Lopez
    Martinez
    Romualdez
    Gonzalez
    Gomez
    Etc

    I really enjoy your lessons and thank you for them. I have a request!! I am a mother...trying to learn Spanish and most of my everyday conversation is with my little humans. Can you do a lesson on everyday phrases for moms? Like "go clean your room" "don't hit your sister" " you can't have desert until you finish all your dinner" "its ok baby, mommy will keep you safe =) etc etc etc. PLLLLLEEEEEEASEEEE!!!!Motherhood is very repetitive so I think a lesson like this would be IMMENSELY helpful. Gracias!!

    In Argentina, children call " Señorita" to their primary school teachers, regardless of whether they are married or single. It is a custom that persists because in the 19th century the law prohibited married women from being school teachers. Therefore at that time they were all "Señoritas"

    So according to my professor who has a degree in Romantic Languages from University of Michigan (he can speak English, French, Spanish, Catalan, Portuguese, Italian, and a bit of German) the reason last names end in "ez" is because it's left over from when the goths (germans, germanic people) invaded Spain.
    It's a possessive 's' (My cat's water. The peoples' rights. Her mom's car.) So "Son of Rodrick" (very germanic name, "Rodrick") would be "Rodrick's son" and then "Rodrick's" became "Rodriguez".

    • @liarosario87
      @liarosario87 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      You are right. The ending "ez" means "son of." "Rodriguez" = "son of Rodrigo"; "Fernandez" = "son of Fernando"; "Gonzalez" = "son of Gonzalo", etc.

    • @henhaooahneh
      @henhaooahneh 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Probably yes, you're right, but we are not totally sure about that origin is true. Spain is plenty of Germanic last names (Fernández, Hernández, González...) but also non Germanic names end in ez: López (Lope son) Pérez (Peterson) or even the old Iberian names (Íñiguez) The main problem is Germanic languages do not mark the names with the possesive "S" but with the name "son" old IE "sunus". The Latin languages instead mark the names with the genitive, a kind of possesive, for that reasons Italian names end by "I". It is a sort of Irish names starting by O' (from English "of" a translation from French "de"; in Spanish DeDiego, DeJuana, Del Valle, etc...)

    Love you videos and your presentation is excellent for holding my interest. Have you done a video for common things that are said when you go to the doctor? The reason I ask is that my wife who is a respiratory therapist went to Honduras last year and again this year. She helps people with asthma. Not asking for too technical lauguage. Just like; take your temprature, blood pressure, weight, are you breathing ok, etc. We are still learning even though we have translators and they are great. Maybe someday we can do our own translating.

    Wow, the diversity of culture never ceases to amaze me! It's really nice to use both parent's names as your surnames, (that's a new one to me) :D
    Desafortunadamente, where I come from, most of our societies are still using the patriarch system so it's always one sided.( Father's side)
    FYI in our culture, the middle name is the first name of your father while the surname is his second name or otherwise known as the 'clan name'. Por ejemplo, if your father's name is Jack Peter then your full name would be Ana Jack Peter:) (¿no es justo,no?)
    Anyway, It's always a pleasure to learn different cultures. Saludos!!!

    If two people with two last names get married and have a child, does the child get four last names? Because I'd imagine after a few generations entire conversations would just be people saying eachothers last names.

    • @victoriamuniz8958
      @victoriamuniz8958 6 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      No, the child is only given the first last name of the father and the first last name of the mother.
      For example:
      The name of the father is José Muñiz Suarez ( the last names are Muñiz Suarez)
      The name of the mother is María Pérez Fernández( the last names are Pérez Fernández)
      Since only the first last name of each parent is used, the child's name would be Jesús Muñiz Pérez.

    • @Karina-jm2oe
      @Karina-jm2oe 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      No no. It is still a men's world so eventually the mother's last name dies with their kids. I think this is one of the reasons why mothers get worked up. I will only pass my paternal name to my kids because they get the other one from their father.

    Thanks Ana. I never realized that Lola is short for Dolores. I always thought it was just a name. I think of the song Lola by Café Quijano.
    Yes, Kevin is very common in Mexico nowadays. My ex-girlfriend has a nephew with that name. Moreover, I have heard that the City of Monterrey now has a law that says that the government will not allow newborns to have foreign names. The only exception will be for babies with at least one foreign parent.

    Brilliant video, as always. It's a shame to learn that traditional names are declining in use in favour of English names, but I suppose that's inevitable with the ever increasing influence of American culture. :-(

    Mi great great grandpas name was:
    Atilano de Santa Brígida de Ursula Campos y Castañeda….
    Nació en 1838 y su acta de nacimiento dice que era español…. Los marcaban si eran españoles, Indios o mestizos.
