Italian mentoring with Mary

Hi everyone, welcome to Spanish You’ll Actually Use. Today we’re talking about something very real: the fear of speaking another language. 
If you’ve ever felt nervous, embarrassed, or afraid of making mistakes… you’re not alone.

Spanish You’ll Actually Use

Why are we afraid to speak another language?

How should we apologize? What's the best way to say "sorry" in a casual situation? 
Expressions we use: 

My bad / That's my bad (casual). 
Hey, uh, Tim, I accidentally ate the food you made for yourself for lunch. Hh... my bad. I won't 
Honey, I forgot to take out the garbage again tonight. My bad. Look—I'll do it in the morning.

I'm sorry + forgive me (more serious, intimate)
I'm sorry, I broke your favourite coffee mug, hun. I'll get you a new one, and it'll be even better.
Paul, I'm sorry for missing your birthday party, I completely forgot about it. Can you forgive me for that? I... I need to be a better brother.

I'm so sorry I let your parrot escape! I'll go look for her. 
I'm so so sorry about that, Riley—next time I'm going to be late, I will call you.

English with Eric

Informal English with Eric: Apologizing

In questo podcast parlo di Medellìn, una delle città più conosciute della Colombia, come è cambiata dopo essere stata al centro delle dispute tra i gruppi armati per poco più di trent'anni, e adesso come si è trasformata in una città allegra, attiva non soltanto a livello economico ma anche culturale; come la gente ha cambiato la loro storia e adesso è una città bella e piena di arte. A livello grammaticale: uso dei tempi dell'indicativo: presente, passato prossimo; condizionale. Vocabolario dei viaggi, luoghi da visitare a Medellìn.
