Tú (vs.) Usted

Hola, today were going to learn about how to differentiate between speaking formally and speaking informally in Spanish.

Now to understand this fully you have to know who you're speaking to. If you are speaking to a friend or someone who's younger than you, then you speak informally (tú). If your speaking to your parents or someone older than you, then you speak formally (Usted). Listed below is a chart with spanish phrases that are formal and informal. You can also use these flashcards to help you distinguish between the two.
