Mental Health Assessments: Mental Health Symptoms

💬 Deprimido/a changes with the speaker: deprimido for a man, deprimida for a woman. The same pattern shows up in estoy cansado/a.

💬 In Spain, c before e or i is said like (th), so cosas starts with a normal c sound but personas doesn't matter here; a clearer example is haces (AH-thes). Also, ves and oyes are informal singular forms, used with tú.

💬 Alguna vez means "ever" in questions, not literally "some time." You can reuse it in things like ¿Alguna vez has ido al psicólogo?

💬 O más is the natural way to say "or more / or longer" after a number. The same pattern works in 3 semanas o más.

💬 With gustar, the person liked doesn't become the subject: a nadie le guste is literally more like "is pleasing to nobody." The same pattern is a mi madre le gusta.

💬 Solo means "alone" here, while English often says "lonely." Spanish often uses the same word for both ideas, so context tells you which one is meant.
