You can find out more about all of this at coffeebreakacademy.com. Okay, let's get on with the lesson.

Let's begin with number one. Here's your question. What pas in the panadier? And why not is content, Ramon? So the question, What pasa in the panaderia? What happens in the bakers? And why isn't Ramon?

And why isn't Ramon happy? So see if you can work this out. Let's see, Angel is talking to Laura. Nice and straightforward. Angel is talking with Laura. And Ramon is jealous. Do you know the word for jealous? jealous is

celoso or celosa or indeed in Latin American Spanish Celoso, celosa so to say Ramon is jealous we would say Ramon is zealous

so Angel is talking with Laura and Ramon is celoso now to explain why he's jealous we're going to reuse a phrase that he used in the episode he said

I can't support seeing how Angel and Laura flirt and carry on with each other. So the verb to support is support. And this is an interesting construction because it's using two infinitives. He can't support seeing. No pueh support bear. Now in English we say seeing, although this construction sounds a little strange generally in English, but he can't support seeing, and we would change that too in Spanish, he can't to support to see.

No Pue de soporta ver, and to see how Angel and Laura carry on with each other, fool around. Now, to fool around, to carry on is tonteer. It comes from the word tondiare. Tonto, which means silly. So, tonteer, the infinitive, no can support,

ver, like Angel and Laura, tontean. So the whole question and answer. What is the panaderia, and why not is content, Ramon? Angel is talking with Laura and Ramon is celoso. No, can support,

to be as angel and Laura tontean. We're going to see. Number two. So the question means, why has Laura gone away? Why has she left? Well, Ramon wanted to tease her. Now, there's an expression in Spanish to tease that literally means to take from someone the hair. Tomarle el pelo to someone to someone. So Ramon was wanting to tease her. Ramon, which verb are we going to use? It's querer to want, and it's in the imperfect tense.

Ramon queria Tomarle el palo to Laura. So Ramon wanted to tease, Laura. But in the end, she took it badly. So in the end, at final, she took it badly. Now, to take something badly is Tomarselo mal.

Tomarselo. So you've got a say and a lo in there. So changing this around. But at final, ce lo has tomado mal. She took it badly. We could also say here, se lo tomo mal,

using the preterate tense. So let's do the whole. question and answer. Why has been asked Laura? Ramon wanted

to take the but at final he's he's he's he's

number three Estella he says to Ramon that no be okay so this is slightly

more complicated Estella he says to Ramon that no so Estella tells

Ramon not to worry. Why does Estella tell Ramon that he shouldn't worry about this situation with Angel and Laura? Well, according to Estella, how would we say that? There's a nice word, it's Seguun.

Segun Estella. As soon as another new girl appears in the area. That's quite tricky. Let's split it up. a new girl would be one a chica new girl

another new girl another new girl another chica newa so as soon as as soon as is translated by en quanto and because this is referring to a future which may or may not happen

you've guessed it there needs to be a subjunctive so as soon as another new girl appears the verb to appear is Apparcer in Latin America so as soon as in quanto

the subjunctive of Apparcer In quanto Apparcea Another Chica New in the area in the barrio Angel will fall in love

with her To fall in love is enumorarse enamorarse of someone so Angel he'll

enamorara of her he will fall in love with her and what will he do well he'll dump or he'll drop Laura

immediately to dump or to drop in Spanish is plantar so he plantara future tense a Laura inmediate question and answer. Estella

to say to Ramon that no be okay. According to Stella, in when it appears another chick new in the barrio, Angel, she'll will be enamorara of her and plantar a Laura immediately. Number four. What opinion Antonio of Angel? So what does

Antonio think of Angel? Opinard The alien means to think of someone. Not to think of someone when they just come into your mind and you spare a thought for them, but to have an opinion about someone. So let's say Antonio has known Angel for only two days. And use Des de Aze here. Antonio Conoce a Angel, remember your personal a. Antonio Conoce a Angel.

since just two days Antonio has only known Angel for two

days but he doesn't like him but no he and Iona

should watch him to keep an eye on him vigil vigilar is to

keep an eye on vigilarle to keep an eye on him so he says

that they have to watch him, they have to keep an eye on him. Dice that they have to keep an eye on him. Very well, then, then, all the question and the response, what opinion, Antonio, of Angel? Antonio, he knows Angel, since just so only two days,

but no he doesn't. He says, what they've got to vigilarly. Number five, So the question no want to go to the fiesta of Cumpreaeanus of Ayona.

So the question is fairly straightforward. Why? Angel no want to go to the birthday year? Why does Angel not want to go to Aiona's

birthday party? Well, let's see that Angel, he doesn't know what his friends will want to do. So he doesn't know no

know what his friends will want to do so we have to change this around slightly and say Angel doesn't know that which his friends will want to do

or indeed that which will want to do his friends which probably sounds better in Spanish so Angel no know what they are future tense of care what he can't

do his friends Angel no know what care to his

friends and he doesn't think that he's going to have a good

time in a birthday party like that so he doesn't think

and no think now you'll remember that when you don't think

that something will happen you have to use the subjunctive so he no pienza

that's a subjunctive so he doesn't think that he's going to have a good time now the phrase used in today's episode to have a good time was passarse lo bomba so let's try and work this out he doesn't think that he is going to have a good time no pienza que

to him it is going to pass bomb. That's really quite tricky. No, he doesn't think he's going to have a good time. Listen again. No pina that's a birthday party like that.

In a fiesta of a birthday year's a year. So the whole question and the whole answer. why Angel not going to go to a

year to a year because he doesn't know what they're

to do they're and not think that he's going to pass

bomb in a year a family so such a lovely

guy Angel anyway number six what what what

he past the so what happens at the end of the

episode well when Angel arrives, the others realize that he's drunk. So when Angel arrives, when when he gets Angel. Now notice that that's not one of these future subjunctive situations using when he arrives, we will do such and such. This is when he arrives, the others realize. So we're telling fact here. We know what's happened. So when he arrives, the others

realize. When he gets Angel, the other they realize that he is drunk. He's barrage. When he gets angel, the other other's they are in mind that he's

barachho. Angel sings happy birthday to Ayona. So, Angel he can't to Ayona Kumplea-a-year-fel-to-her tells or sings Kumbly-a-eus-Felis-Li-A-Nus-Felis.

But Teresa is very angry. She's mad. Now, the way to say that is en-fadado, or en-fadada, in Teresa's case. So, but Teresa is angry. But Teresa is enfadada so she tells him to go to his bed immediately.

So this has to become so she tells him that he goes subjunctive immediately to his bed. So he says that he immediately to the camera. Okay, the whole

question and answer. What is at final of the episode? When Gé Angel, the others see know that he's

a born he's a year old but Teresa is a enfadated

so he says that he said that that has been quite a

tricky task for you today with a number of advanced grammar points

and constructions hopefully you've found it useful I would always

suggest that you go back and listen to Veranoes once more, just to get the whole idea of what's happening and to pick up all the interesting phrases that were used in the show.
