X marks the spot right HERE: esta (Spanish for “this one”) vs. esa (“that one”).

 

Mnemonic Device:

  • X marks the spot right HERE: esta (Spanish for “this one”) vs. esa (“that one”).

Explanation: The Spanish words ‘esta’ and ‘esa’ are easily confused. It helps to remember that esta has a “t,” which looks somewhat like an x, and is the one that’s “right here,” not “over there.”
