# 01. The Introduction

> Source: [video link](https://youtube.com/watch?v=YHDZSHCt1DE&t=0s)

A brief introduction to the 4-hour mega-compilation video. The author explains that this is a stitched-together collection of every previous Spanish-fundamentals video on his channel, covering every concept needed to build a working basis in Spanish.

## Key Rules
- The video is a single long compilation; quality (audio level, pacing) varies between original videos.
- Two topics are intentionally omitted because they're considered self-explanatory or covered elsewhere: verbs like *gustar*, the difference between *qué* and *cuál*, and the difference between *c* and *qu*.
- Watch all the way through and the author closes with a short conclusion explaining the editorial choices.

## Notes & Gotchas
- Some segments will contain phrases like "this concept is for a future video" — that wording is an artifact of the original standalone uploads, not a missing chapter here.
