Hello everyone, this is Paul from SpanishWithPaul.com and welcome to this one-hour Spanish course for beginners. If you'd like to download the course book that goes along with this, you can click the box you see on the screen right now, or I've also put a link to it in the description. It's very important that you interact with the course and that whenever I ask a question, you pause to think out your answer. So don't just...
sit back and listen to it passively because you really won't get the best results from doing that. So with all that said let's jump straight into it. The word for it is in Spanish is simply es spelt E S and the word for normal is normal. So exactly the same spelling just we change the pronunciation to normal. How would you say It's normal.

Es para mí. It's not for me. No es para mí.

How would you say it's impossible? Es imposible. It's not impossible. No es imposible.
Do you remember the word for something? Algo. How would you say something impossible? Algo imposible.
The word for now is ahora. Ahora on its own in Spanish means hour and this a is implying at the hour. So, ahora means now. How would you say, now it's impossible?
Ahora es imposible. Do you remember the word for today? Hoy.
How would you say, it's impossible today? Es imposible hoy. The word for nothing Nothing is nada. Nada.
How do you say nothing is impossible? Nada es imposible. Nothing is impossible for me.
Nada es imposible para mí. How do you say the word important? Importante. Now say, today is important. Hoy es importante.
Today is important for me. Hoy es importante para mí. To say perfect in Spanish would be perfecto.
We have perfecto. How would you say, it's perfect? Es perfecto. Look at this slide.
We have this way, that way, like this, and like that. All of that is covered in Spanish with one little word, which is así, with an accent over the I. Así. How would you say, it's like this? Es así.
It's perfect like this. Es perfecto así. Do you remember the word for now? Ahora.
How would you say, now it's perfect? Ahora es perfecto. Now it's perfect like that.
Ahora es perfecto así. How do you say the word impossible in Spanish? Imposible. And the word important?

Algo. Now say it's something fantastic. Es algo fantástico. How would you say it's for me? Es para mí.
Now if we wanted to ask that as a question Is it for me? You just use the intonation of your voice. So it would be, es para mi? You can see it's the same thing as a statement, es para mi.
But as a question, es para mi? Unlike English where we have to change the word order, in Spanish it's a lot simpler. You simply say the same sentence but use the intonation of your voice to make it clear. That now you're asking a question.
How would you say it's normal? Es normal. Now ask.
Is it normal? Es normal? Is it normal like that?
Es normal así? How would you say it's important? ¿Es importante? Now ask, is it important?
¿Es importante? Now ask, is it something important? ¿Es algo importante? The verb to be in Spanish is estar. We have e and Star.

Es fantástico estar aquí hoy. What's the word for good? Bueno. And very good?
Muy bueno. How would you say, it's very good to be here today? Es muy bueno estar aquí hoy.
The verb to do is hacer. You can see in the spelling we have an H, but in Spanish pronunciation the H is always silent. It's ignored.
So your pronunciation really starts from here. We have a ser. A ser is the verb to do.
A ser. Now if we wanted to express to do it, this it, what we do is take a ser and we hook on the word lo. Lo stands for it. So we would get hacerlo.
Here you have the verb hacer and the it tagged on to the end of it. So to do it would be hacerlo. How would you say it's important to do it? Es importante hacerlo. Do you remember how to say the word impossible in Spanish?
Imposible. Now try to say it's impossible to do it. Es imposible hacerlo. It's impossible to do it now.

We have sa and ber. Saber means to know. How would you say I need to know?
