Adverbios de Frecuencia

Hola amig@s

Qué tal si practicamos un poco nuestro vocabulario en Español.

These are the adverbs of frequency in Spanish

Los adverbios de frecuencia sirven para informarte de la frecuencia con que se produce una acción.
---
Adverbs of frequency are used to inform you about how frequent an action is being made:

Siempre- Always
A veces- Sometimes
Frecuentemente- Often/ Frequently
Usualmente- Usually
Raramente- Rarely
Rara Vez- Seldom
Casi nunca- Hardly Ever
Nunca- Never

In Spanish you can use the adverbs of frequency in almost every place of the sentence.  You put the emphasis.

Let's see this example:

I never talk to her

Yo nunca hablo con ella
Nunca yo hablo ella
Yo hablo con ella nunca

Do you see how it's easy.  You just need to know the adverbs of frequency and start trying to create your own sentences.

Buena suerte.

Hasta nuestra próxima lección

The Verb Ser and Estar

Hola a todos


Bienvenido a tu nueva clase de español

Today we are going to study two verbs: Ser and Estar.  They both mean To Be but they are used in different cases.

The Verb "Ser"

You use Ser to create sentences that can be asked using Who.

For example:

I am a doctor, in Spanish = Yo soy un doctor.
She is Sandra= Ella es Sandra.

Ser


Spanish
English
Yo Soy
I Am
Tú Eres
You Are
Él/ Ella Es
He/ She Is
Nosotros Somos
We Are
Ustedes Son
You (pl) Are
Vosotros Sois
You (pl- Spain) Are
Ellos/ Ellas Son
They Are


Now the verb Estar.  This also means To Be but is used only when you are making sentences in present continuous tense (ing), for example "Estoy comiendo" (I am eating) and to create sentences that can be asked using Where

Luisa está en el parque= Luisa está en el parque
Ellos están en San Francisco= They are in San Francisco

Estar


Spanish
English
Yo Estoy
I Am
Tú Estás
You Are
Él/ Ella Está
He/ She Is
Nosotros Estamos
We Are
Ustedes Están
You (pl) Are
Vosotros Estáis
You (pl- Spain) Are
Ellos/ Ellas Están
They Are


Now you see.  In Spanish we have to verbs both meaning to be but each one has a different meaning.  Ser, to express who you are and Estar to express where are you or what are you doing.

You just need to understand this short explanation to start using both verbs.  Good luck

Nos vemos en tu próxima clase.
