We all like to talk about ourselves a little…and some more than just a little. In this free Spanish podcast we help you learn all the ways of doing this, as well as being able to ask others about what they do. After all, this is the basis of many a great conversation.

Here we give examples of how you can talk about your daily activities in an orderly and accurate way.

It might be worth re-looking at our lesson on reflexive verbs.

Remember, all the additional information and guidance can be found in the comprehensive Spanish worksheets

Every culture is distinct, and none more so than the many and diverse ones found in the Spanish speaking world.

Certainly, when it comes to eating, Spain has its very own rhythm. Listen in to yet another of our Spanish lessons online to see how yours compares.

Also, don’t miss the part in which we talk about the mass confusion over the names of the mealtimes now. It’s a disaster!

Of course, all the additional information and guidance can be found in the comprehensive help-sheets.

There are countless false friends in Spanish.

Have you ever said someone was “enferma” (ill) when you really wanted to say: “enfermera” (nurse)? Or have you mistaken “embarazada” (pregnant) for “avergonzado” (embarrassed)?

Don’t worry, you are not alone!

There are many Spanish words that, although they appear to be very similar to some English words, have completely different meanings. This is a vital podcast for anyone who wants to avoid those ’embarrassing’ moments and ‘pregnant’ pauses.

Keep in mind that if you would like more information that we offer in the podcast, then you can find all the additional information and guidance in our comprehensive Spanish help-sheets.
