ex:
Juan quiere a sus padres. – Juan loves his parents.
Ellos quieren a sus gatos. - They love their cats.
(Yo) Te quiero. – I love you.

Youtube just upped the quality standards so in my NEWEST videos this will not be offered. You’ll probably only notice the description below for most of the preterite irregular videos.

————————————————————-

I’ve started saving my videos in a high-quality format because youtube offers to viewers the option of watching the videos that way on the website. I just found out that you can watch them in high quality here too. It isn’t a drastic difference but I have noticed that things look a little crisper at least!  Keep reading to see how to do it!

This will only work on the most recent videos!  But to do it…

First, make sure to push the play button.  Then…

and then…

Pretty cool, huh!?  Happy watching!

¡Hasta luego!
