I got this question from one of my students, Sherry. If manyana means both tomorrow and morning, then how do you say tomorrow morning manyana mayana? More on that on this episode of Spanish Quiki. Are you ready for a Quiki share? If you've been startying Spanish for a while, you probably noticed how much will rely on the context to understand the meaning of a world. That's exactly the case with manyana, which can be a little confusing because
it means both tomorrow and morning. Let's break it down first. Let's look at manyana meaning tomorrow. For example, me mama jega mayana my mom arrives tomorrow. Here manyana comes right after the verb jega jega manyana, and that's a very common placement. I could also say manyana jega me mama, same meaning, but different word order. But in both cases, do you notice something. I'll repeat both sentences for you, Me mama yega manyana, manyana jega mi mama. I'll give
you a few seconds to think of your answer. In both cases, I just said manyana, no article, no extra word, just playing manyana, and in this form it always means tomorrow. Now let's compare that manyana to when it means morning. Here's an example, Me mama jega por la manyana. My mom arrives in the morning. That refers to the part of the day. It can be the morning of any day, not just tomorrow. For example, me mama jega in la manyana the savado. In both examples, you'll notice something different.
We're using la manyana with the article la me mama jega poor la manyana or Mi mama diega in la manyana the savado. That's your clue's talking about the morning and not just tomorrow. So let's recap manyana. No article means tomorrow. Example, me mamma jega manyana, but la manyana with article a feminine noun, it means morning. Me mamma jega poor la manyana. So now I think you're ready to answer. How we say tomorrow morning? Right, I'll give you a few seconds to think of your answer. That's
it or is it? The full answer is on my blog at Latin led dot com. Chake out the link in the description and that's all for today. Grass Yes, but it's Spanish quiki.
