Spanish Language – some basic phrases

By Monday 14 June 2010Life

Hello or Hola,

As I´ve been living in Benidorm with Boyfriend-W for a few weeks now I thought I´d show you some basic Spanish phases I´ve picked up so far. The english will be in bold, how it´s written in Spanish will be in blue and how it´s said phonetically will be in italics. So here goes:

Hello, Hola, Ola
Goodbye, Adios, Adios

Good Morning, Buenas Dias, Buenas Dias
Godd Afternoon, Buenas Tardes, Buenas Tardes
Good Evening, Buenas Noches, Buenas Noches

What´s your name?, ¿Cómo te llamas?, Como tay yammo?
My name is Antony, Me llamo Antony, Me yammo Antony
Pleased to meet you, Mucho gusto, Mucho gusto

Excuse me, ¡Perdone!, Pardona
Mr, Senor, Senor
Mrs, Senoria, Senoria

Please, Por favor, Por Va Vour
Thank you, Gracias, Grassy ass

That´s just some of the phases I´ve learn´t so far. What is interesting is that it has masculine and femine words which English doesn´t have.

If you want to learn more Spanish I like these websites:

That´s all for now,

Antony

    Not doing too bad with the Spanish Antony! Bit of work required but you’ve only been there a short while so I’m sure there’s more to be expected from you 🙂 x

    Very impressive Mr Simpson. There are many languages which have masculine and feminine words (French for example, which I am currently learning.)

    Living there will really help you pick up the language, you’ll soak it up like a sponge!
