Lesson 1
You go / you are going: va
Use va to say where another person is going and to ask simple movement questions.
One new building block
va
you go / you are going when speaking politely to one person
no va
you are not going
¿Va...?
Are you going...?
Spanish often leaves out usted. In this module, va by itself can mean you are going.
Build the meaning step by step
Va al hotel. = You are going to the hotel.
No va allí. = You are not going there.
¿Adónde va? = Where are you going?
Compare voy and va
Voy means I go / I am going. Va means polite you go / you are going.
Voy al hotel. = I am going to the hotel. Va al restaurante. = You are going to the restaurant.
Use va a + basic verb for “you are going to…”: va a verlo, va a necesitar. Use adónde when asking about a destination.

Lesson 2
You come / you are coming: viene
Add viene to say when or why another person is coming and connect it naturally with va.
One more building block
viene
you come / you are coming when speaking politely
no viene
you are not coming
¿Viene...?
Are you coming...?
Ask about time and purpose
¿Cuándo viene? = When are you coming?
Viene por el documento. = You are coming for the document.
¿Viene a hablar conmigo? = Are you coming to speak with me?
Compare voy, va, vengo, and viene
Voy = I am going. Va = you are going. Vengo = I am coming. Viene = you are coming.
The point of view matters: going moves away from here; coming moves toward here.
Use viene a + basic verb to express purpose: viene a hablar. Use va a venir for “you are going to come.”
viene · you comeno viene · you are not coming¿Viene...? · Are you coming...?cuándo · whenva a venir · you are going to come
