Spanish subtitles: Dolphins and Humans


Here’s another short video with Spanish subtitles. This time it’s Mexican Spanish: a short piece from Mexican TV about dolphins and their special relationship with humans.

Tip: you can toggle the subtitles on/off with the dropdown list below the video. This way you can first see how much you can understand without subtitles. Enjoy!


What’s the meaning of…?

  • A lo mejor…: Perhaps…
  • Cetáceo: cetacean (sea mammals, like dolphins and whales).
  • Tan seguido: so often. This is typically latin-american. In Spain we say tan frecuentemente (so frecuently), tan a menudo (so often) or, more typically, simply tanto (so much).
  • Nado: swimming (the act of swimming).
  • Brinco, brincar: jump.
  • Funja, subjunctive from fungir: to act/serve (as).
