Let's put our words together into some new idioms.

Join us on a rigorous step-by-step journey to fluency.

I'm Timothy, and this is LearnCraft Spanish.

Today we're going to get a lot of practice with all of our uses of

ire and a bear that we've been working on this week.

Before we do, let's learn a few more things we can do with our vocabulary.

It's about how those words are put together into blocks of meaning.

Next, let's learn some idioms that use the word yeah.
