What is compassion? Silvia invites us to explore and question ourselves regarding this complex emotion via analysis of an illustration.

Like in English, compounding in Spanish occurs when two or more words merge together to form a new word called a "compound word" or simply "compound." Let's learn about the different types of compound words in Spanish, with examples of each.

Compound words can be divided into four groups based on the nature of their components. In this video, Carlos explains the first group: compounds consisting of two nouns in which the second one attributes some quality to the first.

In every language, there are set phrases such as "You're pulling my leg" that cannot be taken at face value. Silvia teaches us the Spanish equivalent of this English expression as well as many other such Spanish set phrases.

In this third part of his series devoted to compounding in Spanish, Carlos will introduce us to additional types of compound words that are formed upon joining both adjectives and verbs with nouns.

Now that you've learned a bit about how set phrases convey something beyond their word-for-word meaning, let's learn a bunch more that came up for Silvia during her week!

Welcome to the last part of this lesson devoted to compounding in Spanish, where Carlos will review what we've learned thus far while revealing the fourth and final group of Spanish compounds, which are formed by combining two adjectives.

Silvia provides us with another colorful explanation of yet another emotion: euphoria! Let's join her in exploring this feeling while analyzing an illustration that depicts it.

This time, Soledad tells us about toxic people, what defines them, how we can detect them, and what we can do in order not to allow their way of being to spoil our day.

In part two of this lesson on transportation, we will continue to learn the Spanish names for many additional means of transportation as well as the overarching groups into which they fall.
