How can I start learning Spanish?

If you are an absolute total beginner, my biggest recommendation is to check out www.studyspanish.com/grammar and to check out www.conjuguemos.com which are online grammar lessons

Truly what I've found is you start with the fundamentals and you just go through your language learning journey accumulating knowledge, and it always feels like an uphill battle until one day you're aware of all the things you don't know/understand yet, but you also know how to look up what you don't know - and that's how you know you've made it

I personally find that when you're starting Spanish from nothing you need to focus on conjugations and the most essential verbs; most verbs are regular so when you understand the basic rules for -ar, -er, and -ir verbs you can do a lot in Spanish

The most irregular verbs of all time - which tend to be irregular in multiple tenses

ser

ir

ver

dar

estar

tener

venir

decir

querer

poder

poner

hacer

caber*

haber

*caber is annoyingly irregular but not the most super common verb used; it's "to fit (into a space)" like "capacity" so it's useful when you need it, but otherwise more limited

The are other little bits of grammar knowledge that you'll learn as you go, like when to use saber vs conocer, or ser and estar... things that take practice and repetition but let me know if there are any questions you have as you go and I can help give some more insight

There are other things that are important, but less all consuming, like stem-changing verbs [E->I, E->IE, O->UE] or certain irregularities, and exceptions like conocer or little things like fingir or vencer - which are littler things though more easily understood when you have some more experience

You're also going to want to devote a lot of time to the present tense which is the very first tense you're introduced to

Also - Things You Should Know At Each Level - though for your purposes I'd say you're probably A1 and A2 and try not to focus on the rest for now; you'll get discouraged if you think of all the things you don't know, trust me I was there

The true danger of learning Spanish that no one ever warns you of is that you might end up speaking a dialect where they add the diminuitive -ito and -ita to every word because you might end up using that in other languages as well.

This post is sponsored by me, an adult in their late twenties, casually and without a hint of irony dropping into a conversation with other adults the sentence "I saw some birdies at the lakey" in German.

Describing weather with estar & hacer

Both estar and hacer are used for expressions that describe the weather. Despite the fact that both verbs can mean “it is,” the correct verb must be used with its corresponding noun/expression.

Estar está nublado it is cloudy está lloviendo it is raining está nevando it is snowing está lloviznando is drizzling está lluvioso it is rainy está húmedo it is humid está seco it is dry

Hacer hace (mucho) frió it is (very) cold hace calor it is warm hace sol it is sunny hace viento it is windy hace fresco it is cool hace (muy) bien tiempo it is (very) nice weather hace (muy) mal tiempo it is (very) bad weather

Made bean and meat picadillo empanadas cause we had just enough leftovers as ingredients lol.

There's no fast food open and the lines at the grocery look bad.

Considering the ingredients it basically cost 3.75$ to make 14
