<v Speaker 1>Olla, quiki lover benilo. Another episodio the Spanish quiki short

2
00:00:06.160 --> 00:00:10.960
<v Speaker 1>fan and slightly chiky. Spanish lessons for beginners mayam Marco

3
00:00:11.279 --> 00:00:16.160
<v Speaker 1>to prove Latino the spaniel. And today we're talking about

4
00:00:16.239 --> 00:00:22.920
<v Speaker 1>a common Spanish confusion, Ola bearsus ola. What aren't they

5
00:00:23.039 --> 00:00:27.199
<v Speaker 1>the same? Nope, but I get what You're scratching your

6
00:00:27.239 --> 00:00:30.120
<v Speaker 1>head right now. Don't worry. I'll clear it up in

7
00:00:30.160 --> 00:00:34.560
<v Speaker 1>a minute. So are you ready for a quiki? Yes.

8
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:44.000
<v Speaker 1>I've had many students who are surfers, surfistas en espanel surfistas,

9
00:00:44.439 --> 00:00:47.079
<v Speaker 1>and every time they ask me how do you say

10
00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:52.600
<v Speaker 1>wave in Spanish? I tell them olah and then confusion

11
00:00:53.439 --> 00:00:58.159
<v Speaker 1>because it's in ola, the word for hello. Well, yes,

12
00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:02.399
<v Speaker 1>both words sound is soactly the same. There is zero

13
00:01:02.600 --> 00:01:07.040
<v Speaker 1>difference in pronunciation, but they're spelled differently and they mean

14
00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:14.000
<v Speaker 1>completely different things. Let's start with Allah spelled at or la.

15
00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:18.480
<v Speaker 1>It means hello, and it's usually followed by a friendly

16
00:01:18.680 --> 00:01:25.799
<v Speaker 1>question like allah gital ollah cova, go ahead, repeat after me,

17
00:01:26.640 --> 00:01:39.400
<v Speaker 1>allah gital ollah. Nice. Now let's talk about allah spelled

18
00:01:40.040 --> 00:01:45.200
<v Speaker 1>or la ah. It means wave, as in la solas

19
00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:49.760
<v Speaker 1>del mark the waves of the sea, and people usually

20
00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:53.599
<v Speaker 1>talk about all us in plural. I don't hear often

21
00:01:54.040 --> 00:01:57.000
<v Speaker 1>just a single wave. So how do we know which

22
00:01:57.040 --> 00:02:00.959
<v Speaker 1>one people mean? Context? Mi amigo. If I start a

23
00:02:00.959 --> 00:02:05.359
<v Speaker 1>conversation with Ola, I'm not talking about waves. And if

24
00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:09.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm pointing at the sea and say media is Aola,

25
00:02:09.800 --> 00:02:12.919
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying hi to the sea. So context is

26
00:02:13.120 --> 00:02:20.199
<v Speaker 1>very important. So let's recap Olah spelled at la is

27
00:02:20.439 --> 00:02:27.560
<v Speaker 1>hello and Olah spelled oh la is wave. The sound identical,

28
00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:31.520
<v Speaker 1>but they mean totally different things. And to know which

29
00:02:31.599 --> 00:02:35.479
<v Speaker 1>people mean rely on the context, and that means some egos.

30
00:02:35.520 --> 00:02:42.879
<v Speaker 1>That's all for today. Graciasquitar Spanish Quiki by Latin La.
