[Tr] Rolling R's 117 - Una conversación con el mecánico

Thu, Aug 19, 2010

In this video, Larry Keim demonstrates another conversation in Spanish. It takes place between a mechanic and their customer.

You might have noticed that, here at Rolling R’s, we’ve been circling back to cover some basic Spanish concepts for the people who are just discovering our site. We’re trying to make sure there’s free content available for beginners and intermediate Spanish learners alike.

On that note, this week’s episode is a continuation of the previous free episode. Larry does more with subject pronouns and starts changing verbs to fit the subjects. He reviews AR, ER, and IR verbs.

If you’re new to Spanish, this episode will help you learn some fundamentals.

The Quicktime version of the video is here.

Of course, if you want access to all of the past video tutorials, please check out the membership information page.

This episode of Rolling R’s is for the Spanish beginner (If you’ve been watching Rolling R’s for a while, this will be a nice review for you).

In this video, Larry covers one of the most important and foundational concepts for communicating effectively in Spanish. Action words (verbs) are at the essence of communicating in any language, and the template that you see in this video will help you get started with using Spanish action words. Some people call this a conjugation table, but just think of it as a tool to help you build Spanish sentences in a simple way.

Larry begins by showing the different Spanish subject pronouns. These set up who or what is doing the action. Here they are:
Yo = I Nosotros = We
Tú = You Vosotros = You all
Usted = You (formal)
Él = He
Ella = She Ustedes = You all
Ellos = They (masculine)
Ellas = They (femanine)

In the video, Larry reviews the concept of “formal� and “informal� ways of talking in Spanish, and he also touches on gender. Overall, this Spanish lesson video will provide a solid start to learning the language.
