In short: it's the first person plural imperative wich is mostly the first person plural present subjunctive. A few first person plural subjunctives are not imperatives, like ir and ver where one uses vamos (let's go), vamonos (let's leave) and 'a ver,' let's see.
For anyone wondering, their FREE course is OUTSTANDING. I'm 40% done and I feel like I have learned more than every game based app combined could ever teach in such little time! I hear Timothys voice everyday and it is time well spent!
I hope so because there's so many fake email sign ups out there, that I'm beginning jaded. You sign up and go to their website for the"free" material and there's nothing. So you waste a ton of time going round in circles only to have to unsubscribe I'm not a content creator but I'm imagining it's just as easy to provide what you promised than to not. So I don't get it
Excellent lesson, topić and explanation. You are the first among dozens of Spanish language teachers I follow to cover this topic. Kudos! You are also the first to list pronouns in a peculiar way: yo;el;tú;ellos;nosotros?! Why?
@@ivanivke Good question. It’s not the standard way many people do it, but we switch up the order in our lessons. We often put the first person and third person together partly because the Spanish yo conjugations and él/ella conjugations have an enormous amount of overlap, so it can feel more intuitive. But also I think it’s helpful to emphasize that there is no “right” order to list conjugations - randomizing it better simulates real conversation, which is unpredictable. Thanks for the comment!
Great video! I’ve heard the use of the subjunctive in the “Let’s” situations and really glad that your video reinforced this concept. And thank you so much for clearly explaining vamos y vámonos. It alway perplexed me why they didn’t follow the rules. Now I can sleep at night 😂! New subscriber, thank you and keep up the great content!
Excellent episode! So helpful in marrying my English - first language - reasoning with Spanish word choice. Note: not a fan of the music background as it distracts rather than supports the content delivery. ¿Maybe a little too “peppy”? A less energetic piece might better enhance one’s retention of your valuable lesson.
Another “exception” would appear to be “let’s begin.” I see both indicative and subjunctive used interchangeably all the time. Comenzamos/comencemos or empezamos/empecemos.
@@Dan-hg7db That’s a good point. And it’s not just those verbs - Spanish speakers very often use the indicative (“we begin”, “we stay”, etc) in place of the imperative, as a more casual way of saying “let’s”. This can actually apply to any verb. I didn’t mention it in the video because I was trying to stick to the official rules of “let’s”, but it’s a great point!
If you “must” have music, it should be at less than HALF the volume of the speaker’s volume….in this instance, the music is more than twice as loud as the speaker - completely reversed. We want to hear what the “speaker” has to say. The music should be no more than a gentle accompaniment….
Course might be great but it's way way to complicated. You have to set up two accounts!! Seriously? It's 2024 I don't need to waste 10 minutes signing up for flashcards. As good as it probably is, way too complex
It's really pretty simple and once you sign up for the flashcards app it works for all their programs. I've done it once and it's seamless. The time you'll save learning Spanish is more than worth it!

Where is the link to the flashcards? The video said it would be in the comments section.
Excellent video great information just a lot to memorize.
Right here! learncraft.co/letsflashcards

Thanks for the feedback! And for the suggestion. We'll rethink our music for future videos.

@@learncraftspanish Thanks for that explanation. I’ve been confused by that for a long time.
He reminds me of Farris Buller
Lol never heard that before (jk)... haha guess I'm not mad about it 🙃
I like your lesson but that background music makes it very very very difficult to focus on what you are saying.
Thanks for the feedback!
The background music is really annoying. It needs to go!
Or maybe a little quieter at least
Appreciate this. We're rethinking how to do music in our videos based on your feedback. Thanks!
I wouldn't have noticed how annoying until you pointed out it.
A little quieter would help a lot. Also having music that’s a little slower and less ‘busy’ would help too

The music is the reason why I stopped watching the video 😵💫
Thank you for the feedback! We'll keep it in mind for future videos.
😂
@@learncraftspanish tone down instrumentos a bit
Please remove the background music
We are working on improving the music for our future videos!
