Some Spanish mistakes are small… but they can completely change what you’re saying 😅

In this video, you’ll learn 7 common Spanish mistakes that English speakers make — especially when translating directly from English into Spanish. Some of these are funny, some are awkward, and some can sound very embarrassing if you say them in the wrong country.

We’ll cover phrases like “I’m hot,” “I’m embarrassed,” “I’m excited,” “I’m bored,” and even the dangerous difference between coger in Spain vs Mexico and Latin America.

This lesson is perfect for Spanish learners who want to sound more natural, avoid awkward mistakes, and understand real Mexican Spanish the way native speakers actually use it.
