Good morning, good afternoon, good evening. We are going to begin our second online class. This online lesson first in first lesson. Our previous homework was homework number 12. Write a paragraph in Spanish about yourself. If you don't know Spanish, write something in English. My name is Juan. I am from Cuba. I live in Guyana. I am a professor. My name is Juan. I am from Cuba. I live in Guyana. I am a professor.
Let's check homework number four. How do you spell your name? How do you spell your name? My name is Juan. So I can spell the name J-U-A-N. I can also say, "My name is spelled J-U-A-N."
In this class, we are beginning unit number one: "What is your name?" In this class, starting unit number one, "What is your name?" Let's begin. Let's follow.

And now, we are going to see the summary for this class. Let's see the summary for this class. The greetings. The names of my classmates. The commands in the class, or instructions. The verb "to be called" (llamar se) is the grammatical structure. Subsequently, personal pronouns. The Spanish alphabet. The imperative.
On page 30, 31, we will read that will be the textbook "Dos Mundos." We will use the book "Mosaicos." We will use the textbook "Mosaicos" on page 30 and 31, etc. So, let's start. We will mention the specific name of the book, which will be "Textbook Dos Mundos." That is the main material for this course. In every unit, we will have a video evaluating a Spanish-speaking country. In this edition, we will be talking about Mexico. The United Mexican States, Mexico. It's a new Spanish-speaking country. And this is a line.
Let's talk about the interactivity and political vision of Mexico. The official name of the country is the United Mexican States. Mexico City is the capital. It is one of the largest metropolises in the world, and again, it is larger than New York. Another important city is Guadalajara, Monterrey, Tijuana, and Puebla. With spectacular white sandy beaches, it is easier to find coral reefs. Communism demonstrates the reflectors. Destinations in the world. The treasures of the Mexican nation. These are destinations. The house of celebration. Mexico is believed to be the place where we can celebrate famous people. The singers include Pedro Infante, Jorge Negrete, Vicente Fernández, José José, Juan Gabriel, Luis Miguel, and Ana Gabriel. Traditionally, the music includes Mariachi, Banda, Norteño, Corridos, and Rancheras. And in my Mexican culture, or in the country, hello, I am Mario. From Mexico. My country is in North America. The capital is Mexico City, and the currency is the peso. Some of the typical dishes from Mexico are pozole, barbacoa, mole poblano, and of course, tamales. Here in Mexico, we say "wey" for friend, or "qué padre" is amazing, "no manches" is don't joke. And we say "camión" for bus. Greetings from Mexico to the students of Mr. Juan Carlos Romero Díaz. Bye.
Good morning, good afternoon, good evening. That is where they say the beginning of greetings. That's the way to greet. Buenos días (good morning), buenas tardes (good afternoon), and buenas noches (good evening) are different ways to greet in Spanish. Let's go to page seven. Here, you can see the different ways to greet at different times of the day. Buenos días, buenas tardes, buenas noches. Or to introduce somebody. "Mucho gusto" (nice to meet you). And in Spanish, it's "igualmente" (likewise). But let's go to that in English. The first person normally says, "Nice to meet you." And the second person says, "Nice to meet you too." With that, in different ways in Spanish, normally the first person says "mucho gusto." And the second person says "igualmente." Let's repeat. "Igualmente." "Igualmente." It looks very long, and how to pronounce it, but no. "Igual" means equal. And the suffix "mente" is like "ly" in English. So, "igualmente" literally translated would mean "equally." But it means "likewise." And it's a little bit better. "Igualmente." Repeat. "Igualmente." Excellent, guys. Very good.
And remember from the previous lesson, "Cómo estás?" (How are you?). What we can also say is "Cómo está usted?" That means "How are you?" but more formal. And when someone asks you, "How are you?" you say "bien" (fine). But if you are very well, you can say "muy bien" (very well). And to your second person, you say "hasta luego" (see you later). You can also say "adiós" (goodbye). And remember that in the previous lesson, you learned the word "por si las dudas" (just in case). Activity. Now, my house being with it to party. By my friend, he knows the latter. Iguanas. The party will be speaking Spanish. So, the response in each of the following situations.
1. Good evening, Mike. Good evening. How are you? How are you?
2. Hello, Mike. What's up? Nice to meet you. Likewise.
3. Hello, how are you? I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Quite well, thank you.
4. See you later, Mike. Hello, what's up? Good morning. Goodbye.
And let's learn some expressions. Expressions for your name. Open your book on page six. Expressions like "Cómo se llama usted?" (What is your name?). The answer is "Me llamo Pablo." What is your last name? "Apellido" means last name. "Mi apellido es..." (My last name is...). "Mi apellido es Morales." "Cuál es su nombre?" (What is your name?). "Mi nombre es Nora." And this is a summary of all this. "Cómo te llamas?" (What is your name?). "Cómo se llama usted?" (What is your name?). And there is a difference between these two phrases. "Cómo te llamas?" is informal. And the second one, "Cómo se llama usted?" is formal. And so, both are "Me llamo" (My name is). "Me llamo Juan." Or you can say, "Mi nombre es." "Mi nombre es Juan." Another way to ask someone is "Cuál es tu nombre?" (What is your name?). And the answer to that question is "Mi nombre es..." (My name is...). "Mi nombre es Juan." "Mi nombre es María." "Mi nombre es Robert." Now, when you want to ask for someone's last name, the word for last name is "apellido." So, to ask, "Cuál es su apellido?" (What is your last name?). And the answer is "Mi apellido es..." (My last name is...). "Mi apellido es Romero." And now, I will tell you this very clearly because it's a common mistake. Mix in the answers to the two questions. "Me llamo" is "My name is." "Mi nombre es" is also "My name is." But many people say "Me llamo es," and that is the mistake. "Me llamo" is "My name is." So, you can answer "Mi nombre es..." or "Me llamo..." You can say "Me llamo es," and that's a common mistake. That's why I am warning you.
And now, we are going to do activity one, page two. What is the name of the friend? What is the name of the friend? His name is... And what is the last name of...? His last name is... Guys, let's talk about this. We have time to talk about this in the lesson. Specifically, in your book, you like to mention that in Spanish, we run and have specific structures. For example, "Juan's friend." "Juan's friend." For example, "Juan's friend is Pedro." We know that in Spanish, "fly" is different. "Juan and the book of Juan." The book of Juan. In Spanish, what is the word for the preposition "of"? In Spanish, it's "de." So, "Juan's friend" is "amigo de Juan." "The book of Juan" is "el libro de Juan."
This is a dialogue. What is the name of the friend? Her name is... And what is her last name? Her last name is... Within the learning manifest, we will be boring. Listen to this song. This song is written for children, but we love children inside. Now, I invite you to watch the green song.
Hello. Hello. How are you? I'm fine, thank you. How are you? What's your name? My name is Juan. My name is María. Nice to meet you. My name is Manuel Aguayo. How are you? I'm fine, thank you. What's going on? What's your name? My name is Marbella. My name is María. Nice to meet you. My name is Juan. Nice to meet you. My name is Juan. How are you? What's up? How are you? What's up? How are you? What's up? Good morning. What's up? Good morning. What's going on? Nothing. Nothing. Good morning, María. Good morning. Good afternoon. Good evening. Good morning. Good afternoon. Good evening. Goodbye, María. Goodbye.
The phrase to say everything in the second class. There are instructions, commands that we need to learn since the very first class. Open your book on page six. "Los mandatos en la clase" (Commands in the class). "Saque un bolígrafo" (Take out a pen). "Cuente 1, 2, 3" (Count 1, 2, 3). "Escuche" (Listen). "Escriba" (Write). "Póngase de pie" (Stand up). "Siéntese" (Sit down). "Lea" (Read). "Muéstrenme" (Show me). "Muéstrenme el texto" (Show me the text).
In the study activity seven, page six. Activity seven, page six. You have to match the pictures with the commands. "De una vuelta" (Turn around). "Abra el libro" (Open the book). "Cierre el libro" (Close the book). "Camine" (Walk). "Saque" (Take out). "Sáltense" (Jump). "Corra" (Run). "Mire hacia arriba" (Look up). "Muéstrenme el reloj" (Show me the clock). In Spanish, "reloj" is clock and watch.
In the activities, next, you can find your words that you don't know. You can go to the Spanish-English vocabulary at the end of the book. Or you can also use Google Translate or a dictionary. But I will always advise that you will be working with words that you already know. It will be a way to improve your vocabulary. And I have another activity. You are likely to make the following statement in Spanish. "Estudiante" (student). "Instructor" (instructor). "Profesor" (professor). "Comprenden" (understand). "En la página" (on the page). "Tienen alguna pregunta más?" (Do you have any more questions?). "Despacio, por favor" (Slowly, please). "Tengo una pregunta" (I have a question).
Here is a complete list of the words we have to know. Address. Individual. You can go to pages 30 and 31. You will find a list of the words in Spanish with their translation in English. It's a way to learn new vocabulary. And it's by using flashcards. In the description, you will also find a link to another YouTube video where we learn how to make flashcards and how to use flashcards to study Spanish.
