Summary

The creator explains that the Spanish phrase "Puedo tener...?" is not commonly used and indicates a beginner. They suggest using "Me das...?" or "Me podrías traer...?" instead, and mention learning this from the Parrot app.

Product placement

Parrot (app): used to learn Spanish. It ACTS because the creator learned Spanish from it, and the creator's bio link leads to it. Removing it would change the context of how the creator learned Spanish. Parrot app watermark appears on the bio link, which is incidental.

On-screen text

In case your Spanish teacher didn't tell you... When ordering "Puedo tener..?" isn't really used and is a huge indicator that you're a beginner!! Instead, use: "Me das...?" - translates to "You give me.." but isn't as impolite in Spanish as it's English translation OR "Me podrías traer...?" translates to "Could you bring me..?" (learned this on the parrot app) :)
