I will also teach you many Spanish phrases, sayings, verbs, and verbal tenses that are related to these words. In this Spanish lesson you will also practice your Spanish comprehension because I speak a lot in Spanish. So why not? ¿Por qué no? Watch my lesson and improve your Spanish like a rockstar.

Remember a few important things: Spaniards may not have a problem recognizing some of these words because they actually pronounce the "z" and the "c" different from the "s". So "cocer" it would be something like "cother" for Spaniards. But in America where the majority of Spanish speakers live we do not make a difference in the sound which lead us to misspellings.
