I hope you found them interesting. Please make sure that you listen carefully to the intonation as it is very important to pronounce the expressions correctly. I recommend that you watch this lesson a few times repeating the expressions after me until you get the pronunciation and intonation just right. Afterwards, I recommend that you think about situations when you would use the expressions. In doing this you will find that the expressions come to your head more quickly and naturally in real life.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Que teng\u00e1is una semana fabulosa y os espero en mi pr\u00f3ximo v\u00eddeo.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a1Adi\u00f3s!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hola \u00bfC\u00f3mo est\u00e1is todos?
