This video teaches us how to ask and answer some simple questions in Spanish that could come in handy upon first meeting someone.

In this episode, we learn about Spanish superlatives, or adjectives that we use to state that a thing or person is superior to another.

Although many languages just have one verb meaning "to be," Spanish has both "ser" and "estar," which are used in different situations. Learn the conjugations of these two verbs and some situations in which each should be utilized.

"Ser" and "estar" both mean "to be" in Spanish, but have very different uses. Learn more about what distinguishes them with Ester and Silvia, teachers at El Aula Azul in San Sebastian.

Marta gives us a very detailed rundown of the words for the many parts of the head in Spanish.

We have the debut music video from La Vida Bohème -- an Indy, punkish Venezuelan band with a bit of French in its name. Playing on roof tops in Caracas, the band delivers a subversive song in just a few words. And then they are kidnapped. "Viva la résistance," says the writing on the wall (also dropping in a bit of French). This is one band worth following.

Puerto Rican Draco Rosa, or Draco for short, sings about a promised paradise somewhere near the end of the world. You have to get there, his song explains. On the guitar, Draco is backed up by a bevy of stringed instruments that create a haunting effect. Part of the video is shot on Draco’s ranch in Puerto Rico, which makes you wonder… Does the promised land look like a tropical island?

Our friends from Spain keep sharing their rutina diaria with us, and we can see one thing that’s really important to them: food. They eat all the time! Maybe that’s why they look so happy!

What do we do in the middle of the day? What about eating? A good lunch could easily become the highlight of the day. What are our Spaniard friends eating?

Nothing’s better in the morning than a good breakfast and a good lesson! Let’s start this Yabla day with Marta and Ivana, a young lady who’s as sweet as can be.

After a long day at work, we all want to get home and eat some flavorful, warm homemade food, but the prospect of hours of cooking doesn’t work for everybody. Here, Marta shows you a practical alternative for a delicious and timesaving treat!

Marta was kind enough to invite us to her place. But first, we have to learn how to get into her apartment. You’ve always known that YABLA can open doors for you; now we’re taking it one step further and showing you how to open them yourself!

The trio Fase is hailed as a pioneer in “tropical electronica”. The wonderfully sweet voice of Alma Velasco helped make this plaintive song a favorite among pop fans on both hemispheres. Excellent electro-pop with simple and very clear lyrics that repeat many key words, super for beginners.

Colombian pop sensation Juanes sings this duet with Canadian superstar Nelly Furtado. The song gave each of them an award for best duet and Juanes one for best songwriter at the Latin Music Awards. This song is very clear, very easy, and repetitive using key vocabulary. Great for beginners!

What in the world is Yabla? Julieta explains it to you, and all in in under two and a half minutes! Don’t worry if you don’t speak Spanish, it’s all subtitled and captioned, with plenty of features to help you soak up any new language muy pronto! What are you waiting for? Fire up the video!
