Listen in Spanish

Spanish you can follow by ear

This is the Spanish side of Recursio's listening section: a podcast in easy Spanish, written and recorded for learners at around B1. Each episode takes one everyday situation — ordering at a bar, to begin with — and goes through the phrases people actually use there: first one by one with examples, then in a full scene.

Every episode page has three parts: the video, the phrases it teaches and the full transcript. Nothing is hidden behind the audio, so you can listen first and read after, or follow the transcript while you listen. When Latin America says something differently, the episode tells you.

A workable routine: listen once without reading and accept that you will miss things; listen again with the transcript; then pick three or four phrases you would really say and practise them out loud — each episode ends with a short speaking practice for exactly that. The guides linked under each transcript explain the grammar behind what you heard.
