Hola a tod@s y bienvenid@s de nuevo a un blog sobre Series in Spanish. In this blog of Spanish Culture we are going to present some series in Spanish that will help you a lot to improve and practice your Spanish, at the same time that you spend a very very entertaining time! We all know that the series provide us with a very interesting leisure variant. Because of their short duration, they are much easier to practice a non-native language. Today we can find countless series both on television and on streaming video platforms.
It is the latter that will serve us the most for our purpose of improving our Spanish. On this type of platform, be it Netflix, HBO, PrimeVideo, etc. We find the possibility of changing the language in which to watch the series, for this reason it is best to watch the series in Spanish and select the subtitles according to our level of language skills.
Tips (Consejos)
Some tips to make the most of your time are that you must be realistic with your level of Spanish. It is useless to start watching a series in the original version if we understand absolutely nothing and we are going to surrender to the second chapter. From this point of view it will be much more productive to select the subtitles to start practicing listening comprehension of Spanish. When the time comes and you are ready, you will be able to watch the series completely in its original version without any help.. Â
Subtitles
As for the subtitles, it is also very important to decide if we are going to use them in their original version or in our native language. Although in principle we have the feeling that it is of no use to us, using subtitles in our native language can serve to introduce us more comfortably in these series in Spanish. When we feel ready we must make the move to Spanish subtitles. Although it is true that it is convenient to try to make this happen as soon as possible to make the most of the time. consequently
At the moment that we are using the subtitles also in Spanish, there is a point that we must take into account, sometimes the subtitles will not exactly match the audio. This is because, generally, the subtitles in original version are developed by professionals for people with hearing problems. In this sense, sometimes the dialogue is simplified to provide the nuances that are lost by not being able to listen to the audio. This is not a problem, but we must take it into account so as not to think that we are understanding audio more.
