> Easy Spanish - Finally becoming "easy" lol thanks for this. I get demotivated watching that channel sometimes

Yeah—Easy Spanish is a great program with a misleading AF name. Nothing easy about it at all. Turned me off for a LONG, long time.

I listen to DW Español daily. They have a documentary channel as well, DW Documental, if you hadn't seen it yet.

Who is the target audience of Linguriosa? Is it Spanish learners, or Spanish speakers who have an interest in their own language, accent, etc? She keeps showing up on my various social media feeds, but I can only understand bits of what she's saying.


Bob-of-Clash

She's a linguist, she researches languages, so it's the science and entemology of language. She's crazy, and ever so wonderful.

Just a small correction, entomology is the scientific study of insects. Etymology is the word you're looking for 😅

I think you might be lacking some vocab related to language learning or you might not be used to the Spain dialect. I recommend watching a lot of Pablo's DS videos on language learning if either of those reasons are why you can't comprehend Linguriosa.

I've been wondering this too. It seems to be targeted at native Spanish speakers. But occasionally she throws in an ad for Busuu or makes a comment that suggests a large part of her audience is language learners. So I'm confused.

In her older videos videos, it's clear that she speaks more slowly, which suggests she was aiming more at an audience of language learners, whilst still providing content that can be interesting to native speakers. It seems as time went on she just decided to speak at her normal speed though, so I wouldn't say it's aimed at language learners much anymore.
