Your videos are packed with information. I especially like the extras: “ ah, moments such as the use of “ historia” vs. “cuento “. Thank you! 🌻🌈

When I moved to Lake Chapala 13 years ago, I could speak pretty well already from having had an employee the previous 10 years who only spoke Spanish. To get better aural comprehension I found XEAD FM 101.9 "ciento uno punto nueve, la buena onda, su onda de alegría." I had it on in the car all the time as there were two DJ's, a guy and a gal who bantered but spoke very clearly and fast enough but not machine gun fast or clipping off ends of their words. After about 5-6 months of just having their babble in the background and not actually trying to understand much, all of a sudden I realized I was understanding 95% of it. I still listen to them now years later.

Buscaba a alguien en quien pudiera contar. Te encontré y dejé de buscar !!

Siga con su siempre interesante trabajo. No hay necesidad de buscar en otro lado. Los que dicen lo contrario te cuentan tonterías.

Bueno, me voy porque tengo que buscar a mi hijo a la escuela.

These are great…I’ve always wondered how to translate things like “are you coming to pick me up?” Never would’ve thought to grab buscar for that…your insight into the language and how it works from an English point of view is priceless thanks for doing what you do!!!

I would also give Dejar an interpretation of "To give leave" which is an archaic term in English now but reflects the verb well.

I gave leave of my job (never going back)

Give me leave to help you

My boss always gives me his leave to depart early on Fridays

Etc

Tengo que buscar a mi amigo en la estación de tren a las diez. (BUSCAR = pick up.) 🎯
