One Line at a Time, Episode #6 (The Good Place)
In Spanish, why do they say “me amo” for “I love” sometimes, but other times, they say “me encanta” or “me encantan” for “I love”? And, why do they so often say “el,” “la,” “los” or “las” when we DON’T say “the”? In this video, we’ll address both of those questions.

One Line at a Time, Episode #5 (The Good Place)
Topics covered in this episode of One Line at a Time include: Ser Vs. Estar, Por Vs. Para, Ese/Esa/Eso & Este/Esta/Esto (The Demonstratives), the Before/After Question (adjectives), why “podrían” — why the conditional tense? And, more!

One Line at a Time, Episode #4 (The Good Place)
In this episode of One Line at a Time, after discussing a few miscellaneous issues, we’ll tackle a tricky topic: the before/after question. When do we put a descriptive adjective before the noun, and when do we put it after the noun? When do we say “chicos buenos” — and when do we say “buenos chicos”?

One Line at a Time, Episode #3 (The Good Place)
In this episode of “One Line at a Time,” we’ll look at a few little things (vocab, prepositions, that stuff) before we get to the MAIN EVENT: Why they so often say “el” or “la” in Spanish when we don’t say “the” in English?

In this video, we look at another line from the TV show, The Good Place. Issues discussed in this episode: preterite tense Vs. imperfect tense, ser Vs. estar, why do they use an article in Spanish, but we don’t in English? and words don’t mean words.

One Line at a Time, Episode #1 (The Good Place)
This is the first episode of “One Line at a Time”. I pick one line from whatever TV show or movie I’m currently into on Netflix. I tell you what the character said in English, how the subtitlers translated it in Spanish, and I’ll point out anything that gets my attention–anything I find interesting or tricky.

“Weird” Uses of LLEVAR
In this video, we take a look at all those “weird” uses of “llevar”. Which turn out… not to be so weird. We actually say the same things in English a lot of the time–we simply don’t realize it. But after this video we do =)

Llevar & Traer
At first glance, “llevar” and “traer” seem exactly like “ir” and “venir”. They ARE like them. But not EXACTLY. When schools, books and courses present them in a simple manner, they’re kinda missing the part that actually confuses us lol. If YOU’VE ever been confused by the words “take” or “bring” — watch this video!

Ir & Venir
It’s so close to the same! But the one difference is what makes “ir” and “venir” confusing. Spanish uses “venir” in only one context–and they’re very LOYAL to that context. English on the other hand, plays things a little looser. Watch this video to never be confused by “ir” and “venir” again.
