This, but ones where they speak clearly and slowly.
I can read Spanish fine, but I never understand when people speak to me. I've tries watching movies but I never get anything out of it because I can't understand what they're saying...even if I know the words.
Anyone have a recommendation for something to watch where the voice actors are super good at speaking very clearly?
Spanish phonology is wonderful but it has the tendency to kinda blur, especially when it's spoken quickly.
My advice kinda sucks with regards to fun but I'd recommend watching children's shows until your verbal fluency reaches a point where you can comprehend about 40-50% of the words spoken in movies or TV shows aimed at adults, then watch that with the Spanish-language subtitles on in order to continue developing your fluency.
I mentioned it above but dreamingspanish.com is so good for this. Start at your level, watch about 100 hours, then try the next level up. It takes time but it's noticable when you start getting bored of the slow levels and then jump up to videos you couldn't understand previously. I'm at their advanced level now and trying to jump to native tv shows. I think I still need some time with dreaming, but I can definitely understand more tv/radio than I could 6 months ago.
