Hello and bienvenidos. This is Inspired Beginners by Notes in Spanish. Hello Marina. How are you? Very well, Ben. How are you? Fantastic. Thank you. I'm Ben Curtis here with Marina Diaz, as usual, with another inspired beginners in episode for you today. So I hope and I'm sure you're all feeling inspired. Right, we're going to start

as usual with a bit of revision before we get on to today's real Spanish audio. Now, based on some

feedback we've had from you guys, we're going to fix a system now for how we introduce new

vocabulary and revise vocab from last week and using our expert here, Marina.

So basically for today's episode, what will happen is I will ask Marina how to say something in Spanish.

And when she gives us the perfect example, she's going to repeat it twice and then we're going to leave a big

pause afterwards for you to repeat what Marina's said, which we're sure will really help

to get all the vocabulary stuck in your mind. So let's jump straight into it, a bit of revision

from last week. Marina, now there was a word for to go to bed at night. How do you say,

I go to bed?

Me acquist.

Me acquist.

Great, thank you very much. So there we are. That's the system we'll be using.

Two shots from Marina and then a bit of space for you to copy her rather good Spanish accent.

So me acquist as I go to bed.

How would you say I get up in the morning?

Me levanto.

Me levanto. Me levanto.

Fantastic. Now, another thing that we talked about was the fact that sometimes things are difficult.

Now, I wonder if anyone can remember this strange construction to say that I find something difficult.

For example, Marina, how would you say I find it difficult to get up?

Me cuesta, levantar me.
