Last week we talked about a verb fue - pasar in the sense of transforming, another verb today?

Yes, today we are going to talk about an interesting verb

Although the word may have a negative connotation, it is also used to describe change and transformation.

Aunque- although

For example, when we say "undergo a change," it doesn't necessarily mean that it's painful, but it implies a transformation, doesn't it?

Exactly! Imagine you are learning a language.  

 At first, it may seem a bit difficult or confusing, right? But step by step, you are changing. You could say you're "undergoing a change" in the way you think and communicate.

Of course! Learning a new language is a personal transformation. Sometimes, you have to "undergo" a change in your mind to understand new grammatical structures or vocabulary.

And here's the interesting thing, when we say "undergo a change", we are talking about a transformation that can be challenging but also exciting. In the end, you become an improved version of yourself!

Finally, you become an improved version of yourself!

Y entonces sonríes / And then you smile

Suffering a change or a transformation is an opportunity to improve yourself.

And you, do you feel that you undergo a transformation when learning Spanish?

This transformation can be a lot of fun! Don't be afraid to make mistakes or face challenges - every step you take brings you closer to mastering this beautiful language!

We invite you to embrace the process, smile at every step and transform your new language.

Thanks for joining us for this episode! See you next week with more tips and tricks for mastering Spanish.

So long and don't forget to transform it with humor and smiles!

Bye bye, bye
