Had you guys ever heard the word “guay” before this lesson? If so, where… I’d be interested to know.

Hola!
I like those regional lessons.
And I appreciate the latin roots, very useful for a french (or roman langage speaking student:
For exemple, “quedarse” didn’t mean anything for me but a new word to learn by heart and easy to forget.
I will never again forget “quejarse” when I see the root “quassare (to break)” which gives “casser (to break)” in french.

Alain,
¡Buenas tardes! Welcome! I’m really glad that you’re enjoying the regional lessons! We think that this is a good way to get a true taste of the Spanish language, as it’s spoken throughout the world. When you combine this with the grammar-oriented lessons of the Core Curriculum (i.e. the Newbie and Beginner Series), then you really have a well-rounded course.
As for the Latin etymologies, you’re exactly right: this is a great way for speakers of other Romance languages to make connections. And, as we say here at SpanishPod101 over and over again, learning a language is all about making connections!
Thanks for the comment and enjoy the lessons!
Joseph
