I haven't decided in Spanish
Justin is talking about the future, but he doesn't want to pretend he has everything figured out.
He'll say he hasn't decided, explain that he has no fixed plan, and mention one thing he is genuinely looking forward to.
You'll also practice asking about weekend plans, talking about saving for something, and making a cautious prediction.
The big choice can wait; honest, flexible Spanish is the goal today.
By the end of this lesson

Scene — the choice can wait
Late afternoon at Café Laurel, after Michael has cleared the lunch dishes. Justin, Michael, and Yako are discussing the weekend.
A notebook shows several possibilities, but none has been chosen. Yako is watching the page from his usual two chairs.

Learn — honest plans
These six chunks help you describe an uncertain plan without sounding evasive. You'll also learn to name something you're excited about.
Notice how the frame lines take a natural verb or time phrase after them.

Todavía no he decidido
I haven't decided yet
When to use it: Say this when you are still considering your options and have not made a decision.
Todavía means still or yet; he decidido uses the present perfect for a decision up to now.
Say it: Stress the final syllable of todavía: toh-dah-BEE-ah.

No tengo planes fijos
I don't have a fixed plan
When to use it: Use this when your schedule is open and no specific arrangement is set.
Planes fijos means plans that are fixed or settled, not merely ideas you have considered.

¿Vas a hacer algo ___?
Are you doing anything ___?
When to use it: Ask this to find out whether someone has plans during a particular time.
The blank can hold a time phrase such as este fin de semana or mañana.
Say it: In vas a hacer, link the words smoothly: bah-sah-ah-SER.

Tengo muchas ganas de ___
I'm really looking forward to ___
When to use it: Say this when you feel strong anticipation or enthusiasm about a future activity.
Ganas de is followed by an infinitive or noun; learn the chunk as a whole.

Estoy ahorrando para ___
I'm saving up for ___
When to use it: Use this to explain that you are putting money aside for a future goal.
Ahorrando is the gerund of ahorrar, and para introduces the goal you are funding.

No creo que vaya a ___
I don't think I'm going to ___
When to use it: Say this when you doubt that a future action will happen.
After no creo que, vaya is subjunctive because you are expressing doubt.
Say it: Vaya sounds like BAH-yah, with the stress on the first syllable.
Story — one thing to look forward to
Watch Justin answer honestly instead of choosing a plan too soon. The highlighted chunks show how he separates settled ideas from possibilities.
Turn on Show English if you need help.

Practice — plans, hopes, and choices
You'll identify meanings, choose replies, fill gaps, swap details, and build complete lines from word chips.
Read the situation carefully, because the best answer depends on what Justin actually intends.
