Are you starting to study Spanish or thinking about doing it? Are you planning a trip to Spain or to other Spanish-speaking country? Do you want to learn Spanish in order to get by at work or to have better job opportunities? Or is it your goal to improve your memory and logical faculties?
The truth is that there are a lot of reasons for people to learn a new language. Regardless of what is yours, there are some basic sentences you must learn to say the first things we normally talk about when we meet someone new.
In this article, you will learn the most common Spanish phrases to master your first conversation with a native speaker. They include how to greet and say goodbye, how to ask how the person is doing, how to show politeness, how to ask where is the person from and other common Spanish phrases that will be your survival kit to communicate with Spanish native speakers.
Good Morning in Spanish and Other Greetings
Let’s begin with the greetings. Knowing how to greet someone is very important no matter the language you’re trying to speak because it shows respect to the other person and it is an easy way to start a friendly conversation.
In Spanish, the same way as it is in English, there are greetings that you can use in any situation and others that depend on the period of the day. Here are the most common greetings in Spanish:
Hola – Hello
Buenas – Hi (informal)
Buenos días – Good morning
Buen día – Good morning (less common, used in Argentina)
Buenas tardes – Good afternoon
Buenas noches – Good evening
Bienvenido – Welcome
Que gusto de verlo – What a pleasure to see youBe careful to pronounce correctly the letter G in Spanish in this last sentence.
You can add more enthusiasm to any of these greetings by using the exclamation point. Just remember that, in Spanish, there are upside-down question and exclamation marks. Hence, you have to also write the inverted exclamation point at the beginning of the sentence, like this:
¡Buenos días! – Good morning!
¡Bienvenido! – Welcome!
¡Que gusto de verlo! – What a pleasure to see you!
We have seen how to greet people in Spanish. What about the farewells? How to say goodbye, see you soon or have a good day in Spanish? Here are the most common farewells in Spanish:
Adiós – Goodbye
Chao – Goodbye
Hasta luego – See you later
Hasta pronto – See you soon
Hasta la vista – See you next time
Hasta mañana – See you tomorrow
Nos vemos – See ya
Buenas noches – Good night
Que tengas un buen día – Have a good day
Que te vaya bien – Have a good day
Cuídate – Take care (informal)
Cuídese – Take care (formal)
How Are You in Spanish
After greeting the person, it is very important to ask if the person is doing well. By doing so, you show interest and consideration to the person and you open up your way to continue the conversation. Let’s see how we can ask how the person is doing and also how to respond if someone asks you the same thing.
¿Qué tal? – How are you?
¿Cómo estás? – How are you?
¿Cómo está usted? – How are you? (usted is more formal than tú)
¿Cómo te va? – How are you?
¿Cómo te ha ido? – How have you been?
¿Qué pasa? – What’s up?
¿Qué cuentas? – What’s up?
Estoy bien, ¿y tú? – I am fine, and you?
Bien, ¿y usted? – Good, and you? (usted is more formal than tú)
What determines if you are going to use usted or tú is the degree of formality of the situation. Knowing when to use formal or informal phrases is very important to convey the correct tone to what you are saying. For example, if you are talking to your boss, if you are in a business meeting or if you are writing a business email, you have to be more formal. On the other hand, if you are talking to your family or to your friends, you can be more informal.
Saying that you are well or fine is the most common answer when someone asks how are you doing. However, what if you’re not fine? How can you say you are not feeling well, that you are more or less or that you are sick or tired in Spanish? Let’s see:
Estoy estupendo – I am great.
Estoy muy bien – I am very well.
Estoy así así – I am okay.
Estoy más o menos. – I am so-so.
Estoy regular – I am regular.
Estoy mal – I feel unwell.
Estoy fatal – I am terrible.
Estoy un poco cansado – I am a little tired.
Estoy exhausto – I am exhausted.
Estoy enfermo – I am sick.
Introducing Yourself in Spanish
One of the first things, if not the first one, we learn about a person we have just met is his or her name. You can not say that you really know someone if you do not know the person’s name. Therefore, how can we ask the person’s name and also introduce ourselves in Spanish? Use the sentences below:
¿Cuál es tu nombre? – What is your name? (informal)
¿Cuál es su nombre? – What is your name? (formal)¿Cómo te llamas? – What is your name? (informal)¿Cómo se llama? – What is your name? (formal)Me llamo… – My name is…Mi nombre es… – My name is…
Thank You in Spanish and Other Courtesy Words
Do you know what are courtesy words? They are expressions that show politeness and respect, such as words used to thank other persons or apologize to them. Let’s see how to say the most common courtesy words, like thank you, sorry and you’re welcome in Spanish:
Gracias – Thank you
Muchas gracias – Thank you very muchDe nada – You’re welcomePerdón – I am sorryLo siento – I am sorryDisculpe – SorryMil disculpas – A thousand sorry’sPor favor – PleaseCon permiso – Excuse mePerdone / Perdona – Excuse me Señor (Sr.) – Mr.Señora (Sra.) – Mrs.Señorita (Srta.) – Miss
Where Are You From in Spanish
After you have greeted the native speaker, asked his name, showed interest in him and introduced yourself, you have opened your way to talk about other things with him. It is very common to ask where the person is from and to tell him where are you from. See how you can ask and answer this in Spanish:
¿De dónde eres? – Where are you from? (informal)
¿De dónde es? – Where are you from? (formal)
¿De dónde son? – Where are you from? (plural)
¿Dónde vives? – Where do you live?
Yo soy de… – I am from…
Somos de… – We are from…
Asking Information In Spanish
First of all, we have to learn how to ask things using common Spanish phrases. We have already seen the word ¿Cómo? to ask how the person is doing (¿Cómo estás?) and ¿Dónde? to ask where the person is from (¿De dónde eres?), but there are other words used to ask questions in Spanish. The same way English has the WH question words, Spanish has these specific words to ask questions:
¿Qué…? – What…?
¿Cómo…? – How…?
¿Cuándo…? – When…?
¿Cuánto…? – How much…?
¿Dónde…? – Where…?
¿Quién…? – Who…?
¿Por qué…? – Why…?
¿Cuál? – Which…?
Now let’s see some useful sentences to ask information in Spanish using the question words you have just learned:
¿Qué hora tienes? – What time is it?
¿Qué edad tienes? – How old are you?
¿Cuántos años tienes? – How old are you?
¿Cuándo es tu cumpleaños? – When is your birthday?
¿Cuánto cuesta eso? – How much is that?
¿Quién eres? – Who are you?
¿Qué es esto? – What is this?
¿Cuál es la fecha de hoy? – What is the date today?
¿Entiende? – Do you understand?
¿Comprende? – Do you understand?
¿Por qué te gusta? – Why do you like it?
¿Hablas inglés? – Do you speak English?
¿Dónde está el baño? – Where is the bathroom?
Necesito ayuda – I need help

About the application:
Spanish 21 is a variation of blackjack, that in some cases is the best bet in the casino. In places where the dealer stands on a soft 17, or redoubling is allowed, Spanish 21 may be a better bet than blackjack, depending on the specific blackjack guidelines. If you are looking for a change of pace from traditional blackjack but insist on a mini game with a low house edge, then you may search fresh excitement in Spanish 21.Key feature:* Superb HD graphics and slick, quick video test* Realistic sounds, and smooth animations* Quick and clean interface.* Offline playable: you dont need an internet connection to play this mini game, it run perfectly ok when offline* Constant playing: you don't need to wait for another user to play this mini game* Completely gratis: you don't need any cash to play this mini game, the chips in the mini game are also gratis to get.Here are the full guidelines of the game.Spanish 21 uses six or eight Spanish decks, each deck consisting of 48 cards — the regular 52 cards less the four tens. Any card counter can tell you that removing any 10-point card from the cards moves the odds in favor of the dealer. To create up for this, Spanish 21 gives the user a host of gifts and favorable guidelines. There are lots of Spanish 21 mini games all over the country, so guidelines will vary somewhat from put to put, but the usual guidelines in the player's favor are:+ Late surrender allowed.+ Double after split allowed.+ Re-splitting aces allowed.+ A user 21 always wins.+ User blackjack beats dealer blackjack.+ User may double on any number of cards.+ User may usually hit and double down after splitting aces.+ User may surrender after doubling, known as 'double down rescue.' The user forfeits an amount equal to his original bet.+ A five-card 21 pays 3 to 2, a six-card 21 pays 2 to 1, a seven or more card 21 pays 3 to 1. Premium not honored after doubling.+ A 6-7-8 or 7-7-7 of mixed suits pays 3 to 2, of the same suit pays 2 to 1, and of spades pays 3 to 1. These gifts do not pay after doubling.+ Suited 7-7-7 when the dealer has a seven face up pays $1000 for bets of $5-$24 and $5000 'Super Premium' for bets of $25 or over. In addition, all another users keep a $50 'envy premium.' This premium does not pay after doubling or splitting.Download Spanish 21 now for gratis!
