Meaning of YOU'VE LOST ME and I DON'T FOLLOW YOU - A Short English Lesson with Subtitles

Do you ever have it

¿Alguna vez te ha pasado

where someone is explaining something to you,

que alguien te está explicando algo

and you're just really confused?

y estás realmente confundido?

You don't understand what they're saying.

No entiendes lo que están diciendo.

You could, in English, say to them, "Whoa, you've lost me.

Podrías, en inglés, decirles, "Vaya, me has perdido".

"Stop for a minute and re-explain

Detente por un minuto y vuelve a explicar

"what you were just explaining to me."

"lo que me estabas explicando".

In English, when you say, "You've lost me,"

En inglés, cuando dices "Me has perdido

it doesn't mean that they've actually lost you

", no significa que en realidad te hayan perdido

out somewhere in the wilderness, like behind me.

en algún lugar del desierto, como detrás de mí.

It simply means that you no longer understand

Simplemente significa que ya no entiendes

what they are telling you.

lo que te están diciendo.

Maybe someone is telling you how to make

Tal vez alguien te está diciendo cómo

a certain kind of food,

hacer cierto tipo de comida,

and they tell you what you need to do for step one

y te dice lo que necesitas hacer para el paso uno

and step two and step three and step four,

y el paso dos y el paso tres y el paso cuatro,

and they're going really, really quickly,

y van muy, muy rápido,

and all of a sudden, you are a little bit confused,

y todo de una de repente, estás un poco confundido

and you don't actually remember what they told you.

y en realidad no recuerdas lo que te dijeron.

You could say, "Whoa, just a minute.

Podrías decir: "Vaya, un momento

"You've lost me.

". Me has perdido.

"Please back up to step four and re-explain it to me."

"Por favor, retroceda al paso cuatro y vuelva a explicarme".

So when you say, "You've lost me," in English,

Así que cuando dices, "Me has perdido", en inglés,

you're saying that you're confused

estás diciendo que estás confundido

and that you don't understand what they are telling you.

y que no entiendes lo que te están diciendo.

We have another phrase in English, I don't follow you,

Tenemos otra frase en inglés, no te sigo,

which means almost exactly the same thing.

que significa casi exactamente lo mismo.

So if someone is explaining something to you

Entonces, si alguien te está explicando algo

and you're having trouble understanding

y tienes problemas para entender

what they're telling you,

lo que te está diciendo,

you could say, "Whoa, wait a minute.

podrías decir: "Vaya, espera un minuto.

"I don't follow you."

"No te entiendo".

Basically what you're saying is, "Stop.

Básicamente, lo que estás diciendo es: "Parada.

"Re-explain, because I am not understanding

"Vuelve a explicar, porque no estoy entendiendo

"what you are telling me."

" lo que me estás diciendo ".

So in English, if you say to someone, "You've lost me,"

Entonces, en inglés, si le dices a alguien: "Me has perdido

it means that you don't understand

", significa que no entiendes

what they are explaining to you,

lo que te está explicando. ,

and if you say to someone in English, "I don't follow you,"

y si le dices a alguien en inglés: "No te sigo",

basically you are saying the same thing.

básicamente estás diciendo lo mismo.
