Spanish review: Lessons 8, 14, 16 and 19
Hi! Today, instead of adding a new video, I want to post a brief Spanish review of some previous lessons, so you can read them and refresh what we have learned before. This will be necessary to follow our next lessons in a better way, since we need to be on the same page regarding the base that we have already acquired.
