¡Feliz Día de la Independencia a todos en los Estados Unidos! Espero que pasen un día fantástico celebrando con familiares y amigos. 🎉

Today we learned that Spanish pronunciation varies depending on the country and region. One example is the pronunciation of the letters LL and Y. In some varieties of Spanish, these two letters are pronounced differently. For example, some speakers pronounce lluvia with the LL sound, making a distinction between LL and Y, so it is not pronounced the same as yuvia. However, it is important to remember that every Spanish-speaking country has its own pronunciation and accent, and none of them is more correct than another. For example, in my country, Argentina, many speakers pronounce lluvia as /ʃuvia/ (similar to "shuvia"), while in other regions it may sound like /yuvia/ or /jʝuvia/. These differences are natural and are part of the linguistic diversity of the Spanish language. We also talked about the implicit subject (sujeto tácito). In Spanish, the subject is often omitted because the verb ending already tells us who is performing the action. For example: - Yo soy Jorge. - Soy Jorge. Both sentences mean exactly the same thing. In the second sentence, the subject yo is omitted because the verb soy already indicates the first person singular. This is called the implicit subject. This may sound unusual to English speakers because English almost always requires an explicit subject. For example: - I am Jorge. ✅ - Am Jorge. ❌ In English, we cannot omit the subject. The pronoun I must appear before the verb. Therefore, while Soy Jorge is perfectly correct in Spanish, the equivalent Am Jorge is not grammatically correct in English. The correct form is I am Jorge. This is one of the main grammatical differences between Spanish and English. @David Rivera @Marvin Marshall @Kari P

Tengo una preguntita para los que viven en Estados Unidos. Si celebran el Día de la Independencia, ¿qué planes tienen

Les dejo este video e imagen de lo que les había comentado sobre Mbappé y Cáceres. Durante el partido, Cáceres lo marcó muy de cerca y lo abrazaba constantemente para defenderlo. En un momento, Mbappé le dijo en tono de broma: «¿Qué, me querés dar un beso o qué?». Y Cáceres le respondió: «Y sí, ya que estamos». 😅 Gracias por Asistir en la clase: @Trevor Anderson @Sophia Carter @Monica M @Suzanne Rutkowski @Tony K @Dana Buck @Palle Raun @Mark Sell @David Rivera @Alisa K. Here's the video and photo I mentioned about Mbappé and Cáceres. During the match, Cáceres was marking Mbappé very closely and kept wrapping his arms around him while defending. At one point, Mbappé jokingly said, "What, do you want to kiss me or something?" and Cáceres replied, "Yeah, why not?" 😂

Anoche vi el partido entre México e Inglaterra con un amigo hispanohablante. Pensé que practicaría español con él... pero cuando llegué, ¡ya estaba rodeado de puros hispanohablantes! 😅 Me tocó tirarme al agua. Al final creo que me defendí bastante bien, aunque no tan bien como quisiera. Ellos ni parecían darse cuenta... pero yo terminé la noche con el cerebro completamente frito. 😂🧠 ¿Alguna vez has tenido que... "dive into the deep end of the pool"?
