01 Present Tense – Querer (to want)

Hola. In this video lesson, we’re going to cover the verb querer (to want).

Notice that in this video I only really discuss the verb meaning ‘to want’ but it could also be used as ‘to love’ with people and pets.

ex:
Juan quiere a sus padres. – Juan loves his parents.
Ellos quieren a sus gatos. – They love their cats.
(Yo) Te quiero. – I love you.

In the lessons when he is giving us time to practice saying the sentence (he pauses) it would be helpful to leave the sentence up on the graphic. I can’t remember it long enough and he pauses with a black screen above his head.

Sr. Jordan,

Love the videos! I see the videos on -e to -ie and -o to -ue stem-change verbs. Do you have a video on -e to -i stem changes? Did I miss it somewhere? Thank you!

Sometimes, though fortunately not often, you put in a short phrase that you don’t translate, and no matter how many ways I try to look it up in the Spanish part of the dictionary, I can’t figure out the meaning. In this video, you say something that sounds phonetically like: “kaytokah” or maybe “taytokah.” Here’s another one: “taycordas,” which you say near the beginning.
Sincerely,
Marian
