Hi Holly! Hello from Greece! I love your videos, your story of life fascinates me, your good energy and the fact that you always smile! Even when you talk about sad or difficult situations. Here in Greece, we love learning foreign languages, we start English at school in 3rd Grade but we also go to Private Schools at the same time to enforce our knowledge. We also learn other languages such as French, German,Spanish,etc...We are aware of the fact that Greece is a small country and our language is only spoken here ( and in Cyprus),so in order to communicate with the tourists with the rest of world in general we need to learn foreign languages. The word "toe" doesn' t exist in Greek either! And it' s such a useful word! And the word "estadounidense" existes also in Italian. They call you "statunitense/statunitensi" and not Americans. In Greece we call you Americans. I also speak Spanish, I love your videos in Spanish, your accent is so clear, you helped me keep contact with the language. Keep up the good work!

I think a crush is pretty well translated as a "flechazo". At least in Spain. The others are very good examples. But I have to say, even if it´s difficult to understand for english speakers, that spanish people can live perfectly without saying "toe" or "wave", in my opinion. Most of the times when you refer to the toe you will just say "dedo" (because it´s obvious that you are talking about feet and not hands). And nobody says "saludar con la mano", we just say "saludar". If you are at distance you will wave, if not you will say hey! or kiss, stretch hands or whatever, but you are "saludando" everytime. We definitely need a word for the others. Good video

Lock as a verb in Paraguayan Spanish is “llavear” if you refer to a key (cerrar con llave) and “candadear” if you refer to an actual lock (cerrar el candado). We tend to be lazy in Paraguay, so our variation of Spanish is a bit more straightforward and short in some cases 😂

@@elhector83 No. To procrastinate is to sistematically postpone your duties by finding excuses in everything and anything, even when you know you're doing it. If you re-schedule a meeting, you are postponing it, you're not procrastinating it, which is something gramatically incorrect too. In Spanish is the same, and actually I should have written this in Spanish as you had already written in it, sorry. It's my mother tongue so idk why I'm still writing in English

Why not use traba/trabado/trabar as lock(ed)???

@CreepyCrow6 5 лет назад

You can say “traba la puerta” to “lock the door” at least I use it with my Argentinian family, in Spain I never heard it. I never thought about the word “wave” in Spanish, I was trying to come up with a word but is true, we don’t have one! I’m learning english and your videos are being very useful, not only for the english but also learning things I didn’t know about my language.

@atententen3326 Год назад

One of my new favorites is worry. All the machine translators give preocupados, but worried and preoccupied are not the same in English. I feel like distracted is a more common synonym. Preoccupied in English is more about being detached from what's going on around you. Worry can be very engaged in what's going on around you. And, of course, worry has a very amusing etymology, which makes it closer to struggle.

A. Awkward puede ser incómodo (que tiene más significados) según el contexto, como el ejemplo de los tíos que estaban bailando: awkward situation -> situación incómoda. B. In a clumsy way, could be "torpe", o en expresiones o frases: poco elegante. C. "Delicado" también podría ser. Ejemplo: "you've put me in a very awkward position" Al menos así las uso yo, y quien me diga que no las puedo usar así porque "lo dice la RAE", que no responda este comentario, pls

@miguel-h 6 лет назад

kinsgton987 incómodo es lo más cercano al significado pero creo que “awkward” va más allá de lo incómodo, y no existe esa expresión en español.

@bl8757 5 лет назад

this is such a cool video! Even though it's so closely related to Spanish, french seems to have a lot crossover with english that's missing in Spanish. We have the word "lutter" i think a direct cognate with "luchar" but it really works about the same as English "struggle" though sometimes it's more dramatic like some grande struggle. To lock also directly exists in french "verouiller" in france or in Quebec "barrer" which is funny cause to someone who knows European french that is like saying "bar/barricade the door". But yep, foot fingers and no good word for awkward or to wave at someone I guess we'd have to say "faire un signe de la main" make a sign with your hand? haha. French has "méchant" for mean but it's not only "mean" it can be broader and more intense than our "mean". Like i was watching a mystery movie with my host dad and he was like "oh ouais, il est le méchant" meaning something like "yep that guy (that character) is the culprit or the badguy.
