Brittany freaking out and fucking up the first word and then absolutely destroying the rest of the video is the most iconic thing that I have ever witnessed
I lost a spelling bee in the first round with the word “saucer” because I was telling myself in my head that it ends in “-cer” so I started spelling the word with the letter “c”. I didn’t even finish spelling the word, I just walked off stage.
holii, a los españoles y españolas, en inglés nos llaman "spaniards", así que cuando te refieras a "chica española", será "spanish girl", pero si te refieres a "la española", será "the spaniard" tampoco me gusta corregir pero a lo mejor te sirve de algo
i think she should do it with two fluent spanish speakers, one from spain (obviously) and the other from any latin american country since spain and latin american spanish is very different
Nice of you guys are interested in learning Spanish, I’m from Colombia, here English is so important if you wanna get a better job, better salary etc, I was in the Us for some months and I rarely saw an American interested in learning Spanish, I guess is more popular in states at the border
@@crunchybluecreature coooolll at least you got people to practice with, I learned all by myself, had no people to talk to ‘till I visited the us, all my family are colombians lol, keep practicing:)
@@Sky._.broadbandsentance structure is so hard! Sometimes you think you have it then you realize you defaulted to english rules( i only took 2 years of spanjsh so i dont have as much experience, but that was my struggle)
I didnt notice anything other than what she was doing on duolingo. She primed me to be distracted and even then her video was so entertaining i STILL didnt notice.
As a native Spanish speaker, I think the intermediate level was pretty hard. I was trying to translate along with you and I even got the tenses mixed up lol. We Spanish speakers are not experts in our own language lol, so you did great!
I like that the quiz lets you assign yourself points because people from different parts of Latin America would translate the sentences differently from what was shown but they would still make sense. There is no one correct way to say something usually, so I like that feature.
@@oscarbautista4156 girl in english there are like 8 different sounds with the same letters that confuse the fuck out of non native english speakers too, english is WAY harder to learn than spanish but luckily we don't care about sounding perfect or being formal were all common rats lol

Not me, a Mexican person, fluent in Spanish, still panicking trying to answer while following along w this video😭 Pero chica, ¡tu acento y pronunciación son tan buenos! Habría asumido enseguida que eras una reina latina xx
@@JoshyJosh the fact that in her comment she never stated that she was latina but because of her good pronounciation and accent she woud of assumed that she was Latina
@@moonjunhui13 her accent doesn't sound Latin American though, it sounds more Spanish to me. As in, European Spanish from Spain. And I'm saying this as a Spaniard myself. She does have really good pronounciation, but I'd have assumed that she was Spanish before assuming she was Latina.
As an Spaniard I'm impressed with your Spanissh pronunciation. Before duolingo (because at Duolingo they use Latin America pronunciation) when you were talking Spanish for a moment you were from spain for me 😂😂
Later, but this actually has sort of an easy explanation, in a lot of Spanish courses in the U.S. they tend to teach español peninsular over a Latin American variation, specially in a college setting since for some reason it's perceived as more formal. It also depends on the particular case of the person giving said class, most Spanish native speakers that teach the language in the US are from Latin America or their parents are, so they will teach it in a more americanized dialect (con seseo y sin "vosotros"), the ones that teach it but are not natives probably learned it later on when attending college and they will consequently teach it having the Spain dialect as a baseline. Brittany probably learned Spanish more intensively when she was in college, hence her accent being close to that of a Spaniard.
Watching you in Duolingo was killing me, I'm learning French with that owl and he is RUTHLESS! I wake up every day to "wouldn't wanna lose that streak now!" basically threatening me to do my French lesson NOW!

HAHAHAHAHA, i don’t know if it is because of the people i am surrounded, but i don’t remember hearing “otoñal” or “primaveral” (spring time)very often. I will start using it more because it’s correct and kinda funny.

The one thing I’m jealous of the US school system for is the fact that learning a language (predominately Spanish I’m assuming?) is offered as a subject in schools. In Australia, primary school we didn’t have any languages to learn and in my high school it was Japanese (I could never understand kanji so didn’t take it). I think it’s a necessary and convenient flex to be able to speak and understand another language
I really surprised to hear that foreign languages aren't common subjects in Australian schools. Yes, Spanish is the predominant one but French, German, and American Sign Language are also common
I did Japanese in grade 6 and 7 and German in grade 8 and 9 and it was offered in senior school but I had no interest in it cause the teachers were the worst 😑 and I know other schools teach/taught LOTE but yeah I dont think it's pushed that much, tends to be a bludge subject. I agree LOTE should be a necessity, I did linguistics in uni and it honestly changed my whole outlook on culture and language, would highly recommend looking into it!
I desperately want to learn at least enough Spanish to have basic conversation, but I can’t roll my Rs and people have told me there’s no point in learning Spanish if I can’t
there are even many native spanish speakers from every part of the world who simply cannot roll their r’s because of speech problems. doesn’t stop them from speaking spanish.
Haha same here. I told people I spoke some italian. Wich technically wasnt wrong but I took lessons for like, two months and literally dont remember anything XD
as a spanish speaker, im always impressed with your* accent and fluidity! when learning a new language, we make mistakes and its normal~ loved that you have to film it twice bc you take it so serious!
pero like… simpatizo completamente contigo porque cuando estudiaba español para AÑOS Y AÑOS y tiene exposición regularmente en la escuela y cuando se gradúa y no tiene un trabajo que o personas en su vida quienes usan español regularmente, es TAN difícil mantener tu capacidad de español, entonces esto es muy impresionante (: y gracias a ti para compartiendo tu historia con la lengua, es bonita (:
This is without a doubt my favorite vdeo of yours. You allowed yourself to be a little vulnerable with your audience and i appreciate that. I only took 2 years of Spanish and i barely even passed the second year! It was so much harder than i thought it would be! Your spanish skills are really impressive! (Edit for typo)
I came back to your content with your video about moving to Spain and now get this recommended. Really impressed with your Spanish, your accent sounds waaaaaay more natural than what you get in apps *_* Can't wait for a full video in Spanish, demostrando que la que sabe sabe
Hi, my first language is Spanish and I speak fluently English and live in La. I also would’ve translated the sentences as you did ! I was really impressed on how your think in Spanish. It’s a very intricate way, you know already a lot and it’s intensive Spanish. I think the app or website where you’re learning from asks you for a more natural translation rather than a literal one. But I also like to translate very literal because to me if I don’t it’s another whole different sentence just like I saw they were correcting you for in the sentences. Also you right , there’s many ways to translate it . Good job tho.
Voy a decir que eres bilingüe. Pero hay diferentes niveles del bilingüismo que, según los estándares internacionales del lenguaje, oscilan entre A1-C2. Yo he hablado español TODA MI VISA pero no soy capaz de hablar de las cosas más complejas que se encuentra en nivel C2 porque no soy filósofo 😂. Basically people think that you are supposed to know how to say EVERY SINGLE WORD in a language just because you say you’re bilingual and that’s not how language works. I’m impressed…and I actually really like your Spanish accent.
You seriously did AMAZING! I like learning languages, i can read and understand a lot of things, but forming and writing SENTENCES?! SO hard for me. You make me wanna study harder!
"Era una mañana fría de otoño" suena mucho mejor que "otoñal". Just sayin'... Me encanta que una de mis personas favoritas de Internet hable español. Te queremos, Brittany! 💛💛
Yeah, I'm a native Spanish speaker and you never gonna hear that word. I think that the native speakers only use that words to write poems and stuff like that
Please do more vids about Spanish!! I'm trying to learn too! I just checked out some chapter books in Spanish from the local library and I have bit off more than I can chew cause I only took French in high school lmao
I was born in Spain, I have been speaking Spanish all my life and I must say that you have a very good accent and you pronounce the words very well, by the way, you are very funny. 🤣
Spanish is my first language and I had a hard time translating some words 😂😂 But as a Latina, I can say that your pronunciation and your way of constructing sentences is very good. In the most common way-literally no one talks like SpanishDict says. (what matters for us, is to make sure you understand what we're saying LOL)
You did really well, Brittany. I would not have gotten anywhere near as far as you did in Duolingo. I took 5 years of Spanish through high school and college but since I haven't practiced in years, I'm also very rusty. Thanks for the free laughs and entertainment.
your Spanish is so good omg take it from a native speaker, your accent, you VOCABULARY, the second thinking, honestly, you're quite fluent in Spanish for sure no doubt
As a native spanish speaker, I LOVED THIS VIDEO. MAMA YOU SLAY 🎉 I am always so happy and proud of any human being who tries to master Spanish because it isn't easy and the accent is so cute and I just love it.

Not me getting a Duolingo notification threatening me to keep my streak why watching this
as a spanish speaker, im always impressed with your* accent and fluidity! when learning a new language, we make mistakes and its normal~
loved that you have to film it twice bc you take it so serious!
pero like… simpatizo completamente contigo porque cuando estudiaba español para AÑOS Y AÑOS y tiene exposición regularmente en la escuela y cuando se gradúa y no tiene un trabajo que o personas en su vida quienes usan español regularmente, es TAN difícil mantener tu capacidad de español, entonces esto es muy impresionante (: y gracias a ti para compartiendo tu historia con la lengua, es bonita (:
This is without a doubt my favorite vdeo of yours. You allowed yourself to be a little vulnerable with your audience and i appreciate that. I only took 2 years of Spanish and i barely even passed the second year! It was so much harder than i thought it would be! Your spanish skills are really impressive!
(Edit for typo)
I came back to your content with your video about moving to Spain and now get this recommended. Really impressed with your Spanish, your accent sounds waaaaaay more natural than what you get in apps *_* Can't wait for a full video in Spanish, demostrando que la que sabe sabe
Hi, my first language is Spanish and I speak fluently English and live in La. I also would’ve translated the sentences as you did ! I was really impressed on how your think in Spanish. It’s a very intricate way, you know already a lot and it’s intensive Spanish. I think the app or website where you’re learning from asks you for a more natural translation rather than a literal one. But I also like to translate very literal because to me if I don’t it’s another whole different sentence just like I saw they were correcting you for in the sentences. Also you right , there’s many ways to translate it . Good job tho.
Voy a decir que eres bilingüe.
Pero hay diferentes niveles del bilingüismo que, según los estándares internacionales del lenguaje, oscilan entre A1-C2. Yo he hablado español TODA MI VISA pero no soy capaz de hablar de las cosas más complejas que se encuentra en nivel C2 porque no soy filósofo 😂.
Basically people think that you are supposed to know how to say EVERY SINGLE WORD in a language just because you say you’re bilingual and that’s not how language works. I’m impressed…and I actually really like your Spanish accent.
I can’t describe how much I want you to teach Spanish on here or something. This was incredible and I’m only a few months into learning
yes i would love that too. I've been trying to learn Spanish but it's so difficult for me
Careful! One more wrong answer and it’s over. (The editing when she got the answers wrong KILLED ME; amazing job Stanley) 12:32

Brittany tu acento hablando español es excelente, muchas felicidades! YOU ATE THAT
You seriously did AMAZING! I like learning languages, i can read and understand a lot of things, but forming and writing SENTENCES?! SO hard for me. You make me wanna study harder!
"Era una mañana fría de otoño" suena mucho mejor que "otoñal". Just sayin'...
Me encanta que una de mis personas favoritas de Internet hable español. Te queremos, Brittany! 💛💛
Yeah, I'm a native Spanish speaker and you never gonna hear that word. I think that the native speakers only use that words to write poems and stuff like that
Además que “otoño” rima con otra palabra muy española…. Logroño.
Pero "era una fría mañana otoñal" es más poético
Please do more vids about Spanish!! I'm trying to learn too! I just checked out some chapter books in Spanish from the local library and I have bit off more than I can chew cause I only took French in high school lmao
I was born in Spain, I have been speaking Spanish all my life and I must say that you have a very good accent and you pronounce the words very well, by the way, you are very funny. 🤣
Spanish is my first language and I had a hard time translating some words 😂😂 But as a Latina, I can say that your pronunciation and your way of constructing sentences is very good. In the most common way-literally no one talks like SpanishDict says.
(what matters for us, is to make sure you understand what we're saying LOL)
New follower here. I think you have a really good Spanish accent with a twang of Tex-Mex charm. I love that your are so funny and relatable!
I’m surprised by the amount of people saying she sounds very Spanish because the accent is so Tex Mex to me lol
I'm both terrified and honored to know that you have spent a lot of time learning my native language, cant help but stan
This made me feel like I was going back in time and hearing my own thoughts during any and all of my exams in school and uni
you are the most iconic person i’ve ever seen
you actually weren't that bad!! i've been speaking spanish since i was a child and i probably would have failed under pressure too :)
You did really well, Brittany. I would not have gotten anywhere near as far as you did in Duolingo. I took 5 years of Spanish through high school and college but since I haven't practiced in years, I'm also very rusty. Thanks for the free laughs and entertainment.
Brittany: Duolingo if you wanna sponsor me, hit my line
Also Brittany: 10:03
i wanna see brittany try to do irish duolingo. i feel like its an absolute trip and would be really fun
the sentences you were translating were so hard tbh and spanish is my first language
your Spanish is so good omg take it from a native speaker, your accent, you VOCABULARY, the second thinking, honestly, you're quite fluent in Spanish for sure no doubt
As a native spanish speaker, I LOVED THIS VIDEO. MAMA YOU SLAY 🎉 I am always so happy and proud of any human being who tries to master Spanish because it isn't easy and the accent is so cute and I just love it.
