    I just started learning Spanish 2 months go. Now I can't find a single term to describe that feeling when you haven't yet fully understood Spanish yet but you are able to read and guess sentences to a close meaning. Muchas Gracias mi professor!!!!!

    Can you do a class on “A” at the beginning of a sentence? I just don’t know why it’s needed and don’t see a difference if it is not used. For example:
    1) A mi mujar no le gusta vino tinto.
    2)A continuacionar.
    3) A mi papá le gusta mucho jugar.
    Are those “As” really doing anything for us?
    Thank you.

      "A mi mujer" and "a mi papá" both use the "personal a" and we're stuck with it, even if it seems useless. "A continuación" is just a stock phrase, kind of like "at once" is a stock phrase in English.

    • @gerlautamr.656
      @gerlautamr.656 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Hi, I'm Mexican, so I'll try to answer briefly.
      The word "y" means "and", but when the next word begins with "i" or "y", you must change it to "e", for example: "España e Inglaterra son países europeos".
      And the word "o" means "or", but when the next word begins with "o", you must change it to "u", for example: "Estos u otros virus", meaning "these or other viruses".
      In both cases this is just for better sounding purpose.
      I hope your doubts are clarified now :)

      Yes for pets, though not for all animals. Normalmente, no se diría The personal "a" is used for animals we have a personal connection to. One could say that about a cow, but one wouldn't normally.

    When you begin with a name like Isabel, when do you have to put an "a" in front of it?
    For example,
    "Maria le gusta el carro".
    OR
    "A Maria le gusta el carro".
    Are they both correct? Is one of them correct and why?

    Seems straightforward, but you could have discussed situations where "en" and "a" could be used with slightly different meanings as in "volveremos en casa a las siete" and" volveremos a casa a las siete".

      "quería" = I/he/she "wanted" is the indicative imperfect conjugation.

      Hola,
      "Quisiera" means "I'd like (to)" for example: "Quisiera darte un beso" (I'd like to give you a kiss").
      "Quería" is the past conjugation of the verb "querer" (to want), only for the "yo", "él", "ella", and "usted" forms, for example: "(Yo) quería ir al cine ayer" (I wanted to go to the movies yesterday).
      "Querría" means "I'd want", for example: "Si (tú) me dieras dinero, yo querría irme de vacaciones" (If you gave me money, I'd want to go on vacation).
      "Querría" is also used with he (él), she (ella), and you (usted).
