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.
