Overview topics/tips in Spanish tree
Since I couldn't find a list like this yet, I have created an overview of which lesson in the Spanish tree has which tips/teaches which topics*. This way, it's easier to find the right lesson if you want to practice a specific topic or want to read the tips about something again.
If there are any errors, please let me know and I'll edit this post. Also, I tried my best with the grammatical terms, but there could very well be errors in it (especially with the direct vs. indirect objects, I always have trouble telling which is which).
*These are only the topics that are mentioned in the tips, a lot of these lessons also teach some other things that are not mentioned in the tips section, so if you know some of those, feel free to let me know and I'll add them

Using "de + [infintive]" as part of conditionals, and mixed conditionals
Ran into the claim that the imperfect subjunctive -ra form can sometimes be used like the indicative such that A & B are correct and equivalent, though usage like A is diminishing over time:
- A: Ese es el caballo por el cual hubiera vendido mi casa de tener yo una.
- B: Ese es el caballo por el cual habría vendido mi casa, de tener yo una.
Translated to English, this would be "This is the horse for which I would have sold my house if I had one."
I hadn't seen this use of "de + [infinitive]" before and really couldn't understand A until I ran it through deepl to get a translation. Talking to a spanish native friend, he said it would be correct and have the same meaning using "si" as in C:
- C: Este es el caballo por el que habría vendido mi casa si tuviera una.
Given C, This seems to be one of those mixed conditionals that are tricky because the speaker describes something they would have done in the past given something that isn't true in the present (and by inference wasn't true in the past). Though "if I had one" and "si tuviera una" have a distant nature that could express past time in other contexts, in this context I think they are expressing unlikelihood with the distant tense.
But maybe D, which is not a mixed conditional, would also be a possible paraphrase of B? D is not a mixed conditional since both the if and then clauses are in the past (hubiera tenido is double distant- once for unlikeliness, once for past), and maybe thats ok given "de tener" as an infinitive doesn't have much temporal information. But I suspect D does not have the same meaning, and would actually be the same as E. I made up D and E though, so I have a bit of uncertainty which would be correct and which would be equivalent to A and B.
- D: Este es el caballo por el que habría vendido mi casa si hubiera tenido una.
- E: Este es el caballo por el que habría vendido mi casa de haber tenido una.
So I suspect D and E could be correct Spanish but have a slightly different meaning than A&B,
But anyhow, going back to C, which transforms B to use "si" instead of "de", I wonder if I can do something similar to A and produce F? Is F correct and have the same meaning as A and B?
- F: Ese es el caballo por el cual hubiera vendido mi casa si tuviera una.

How to get 8s/9s in languages: Spanish edition
So, I thought I'd make this little guide to help people doing French/Spanish. For reference, I did my Spanish exam last year and got an 8 (got 9s on all my components except listening, lol). I'm doing French right now (and I'd be doing Japanese too if it were a viable option, haha). I've gotten 9s in my French mocks, so I guess I'm qualified to give advice. (Note: I'm not native in any of these languages. I learnt them all from scratch.)
Note 2: keep in mind it's almost been a year since my Spanish exam so excuse any mistakes I might make.
So, Spanish. Let's go.
DOCTOR PLACE. Learn it and use it. Doctor is "ser", place is "estar". I'd type it out here but there's some really good posters online that will explain it better than I can and offer specific examples. Basically, it's a more concrete way than "ser is permanent, estar isn't". I mean you'd say "estaba muerta" (she was dead) not "era muerta" even though death is "permanent". So, yeah. Learn doctor place.
Para is PERFECT, Por is for EVERYTHING ELSE
- P = Purpose
- E = Effect
- R = Recipient
- F = future/point in time
- E = employment
- C = comparison
- T = towards
Next, speaking. Circumlocution is a really good skill. That word basically means being able to communicate an idea in more than one way. So for example:
- I'm hungry | tengo hambre
- My stomach's empty | mi estomago esta vacio
- I'm starving | estoy hambriento
- I need food | necesito comida
All of those sentences communicate the same idea but in different ways. If you can do the same thing in Spanish you'll never get stuck in a speaking. You can't teach yourself new words in the exam--so learn what you've got already!!!! (This also applies to writing tbh)
LEARN SYNONYMS. The reason why so many people fuck up on listening is because they often use synonyms and expect you to know them. For example:
Option on the exam says "John says he is stupid". So, you'd think that he would say "soy estúpido".
Listening exam: "soy atontado" (also means stupid)
Because you only prepared for one word, you get thrown off. So, get into the habit of learning synonyms. You don't have to learn many. You can still get good marks without knowing synonyms. But if you have a good memory... it's worth a try.
LEARN YOUR "I" AND "HE/SHE/IT" CONJUGATIONS in PAST PRESENT AND NEAR FUTURE
I'll use a similar example from above. Option on the exam says "John thought he was stupid". So, you'd think that he would say "pensé que era estúpido".
Listening/reading exam: "la madre de John pensó que era estúpido" (John's mom thought he was stupid)
If you only pay attention to "era estúpido", you'll think he's saying he's stupid. So, in reading, if you know that "pensó" is imperfect 3rd person "thought", you'll know instantly that John isn't thinking that about himself. You can't know every piece of vocab, but usually the verb will give you a clue, so: know your conjugations. 'I' and 'he/she' are the most common.
CORRECT YOURSELF
Examiners love it when you correct yourself in a speaking exam. It shows self awareness and you get higher marks for it. Now I'm not saying make mistakes on purpose, but you are NOT expected to be perfect otherwise it would only be the native speakers getting 9s on their speaking exams.
ORIGINALITY
So, crafting a good answer.
The classic "voy al ciné con mis amigos?" Dump it. Don't. Don't even mention the cinema. Say something that will stand out. If you interest the examiners they'll be more lenient with your mistakes as you're entertaining them.
So, I'll offer another example. This happened in my French speaking (I don't remember my Spanish speaking anymore lol) but I'll translate it to Spanish. In my exam I was asked if I like the market. Rather than saying "yes, I like the market because they sell food" or a one sentence answer, I said "yes, I really like the market because you can find foreign things like babushka dolls from Russia"/"sí, me gusta mucho el mercado porque la gente puede descubrir las cosas extranjeras como babushka dolls de Rusia" My teacher started laughing but I didn't stop there. I said "it can be dangerous sometimes. One time, my money was stolen. It was horrible."/"de vez en cuando, puede ser peligroso. Una vez, mi dinero fue robado. Fue horrible."
(Note: I know "you can" wouldn't usually translate as "la gente puede" but I was using the general "you" which doesn't really exist in Spanish like it does in French and English so... yeah. Compromises.)
So, there, I included the following techniques:
- different conjugation (me gusta, la gente puede)
- opinion (porque)
- time phrase (de vez en cuando)
- more than one tense (past and present)
- intensifiers (me gusta mucho rather than just me gusta)
The extra tense could be something as simple as "lo pasé bomba". Literally, right at the end of your speaking, just say lo pasé _____ and boom, you just moved your marks up even higher. It's a cheat code.
don't put yourself in a corner
If you mess up on speaking and don't know what to say (so maybe you're trying to say something really complex and you run into an irregular verb like "tener" and freeze.). Here's what you do. You stop. Then, in Spanish, you say something like: "sorry, I'm going to start again"/"perdon, quiero decir.../quería decir.../quiero repetir" and dig yourself back out of the hole.
HOWEVER don't do this if it's a minor mistake. I'd say only do this during the general conversation if it's absolutely necessary. It gives you time to recollect your words and start again. So, use it as a last ditch resort.
Reading: you don't need to understand everything. In English, we often don't understand every single word we encounter. If I begin to expound into magniloquent language then you may not comprehend the meaning of my lexicon (lmao) but based on the context and your knowledge of other words, you might be able to figure it out. The same idea applies to Spanish. So, you can guess, but make sure it's an educated guess.
Same goes for listening. Honestly, I don't understand listening a lot of the time. But I look at the sheet and think "okay what's likely?" If it's telling me about a guy's daily routine, it's unlikely to say "he puts make up on" (not impossible, but unlikely) so I can rule that option out. That way I can make an educated guess if I really don't understand.
So, to summarise: educated guesses are IT.
Finally: believe in yourself. I know it's cheesy but honestly, self belief goes a long way when it comes to languages. I'm gonna make a separate post about how to prepare for language exams, but this focuses specifically on what to do if you've got little/no time left to prepare (I.e. it's the morning of the exam).
I hope this was helpful!
