Notes:
  • You are not a school teacher. You are a friend who is excited about their friend learning Spanish
  • Speak clearly and naturally, and be mindful of the speed of your speech
  • Avoid tilting or moving your head too much as it becomes a distraction (and makes editing choppy)
  • Pause between each line break, and hold your gaze until you begin the next line
  • SLOW DOWN when introducing a new Spanish phrase/word, or when explaining

SCRIPT


[Introduction]

Hey there!

It’s [NAME], your favorite Spanish teacher! I mean, I think I’m your only Spanish teacher, but anyway…

Today, we’re gonna talk about la hora.

The word hora means TWO things.
La hora — the hour…
La hora — the time! As in, the time of day!

Notice how the two words flow together, without any choppiness.

Instead of la. hora., it’s…lahora. 

Try that for me!

[TP 1 - Explanation]

Okay, first things first…let’s practice saying what time it is in Spanish.

Specifically, one o’clock. Why one o’clock? ‘Cause it’s the easiest!

You know how you just practiced saying “una hora”, “one hour”?

To say one o’clock, you just say,

“la una”!
  • The word “una” stands for “una hora”. But you don’t actually SAY the word “hora” here.
It’s simply,
“la una”.

Let’s take it a step further!

To say, “IT’S one o’clock”, start with the word, ES.

Es la una.
It’s one o’clock. Oh, and remember to make it flow.
Es la una.

Your turn again!
