Tu vs. Ud

Posted by Taylor Thomas on

When speaking with the President, you would speak in a proper voice. You wouldn't say "Hey dude! What's cracking" You would say "Hello Mr. President how are you today?" However you might say "hey! what's up?" to the President's daughter.

     In order to do this you have to know

     1. What is formal and what isn't.

     2. Who you are speaking to.

     3. When to use Tu and when to use Usted.


When asking the Presidents daughter her name you would say "Hola! Como te llamas tu?

Tu is the Informal way of saying you. Usted is the formal way of saying you.

So when asking the president his name you would say "Hola! Como se llama ud.?

Hola! Greetings:

Posted by Keyaira Doughty on

In order to greet someone and have a simple conversation in Spanish you have to know:

How to say Hello in Spanish

How to Ask someone their name

How to ask someone how they are doing.


         You can say hello to someone by saying one of the following greetings according to the time of day:

¡Hola! = Hello (Anytime)

¡Buenos dias!= Good Morning

¡Buenas Tardes!= Good Afternoon

¡Buenas noches!= Goodnight


When asking someone their name in Espanol you say ¿Como Te llama?

There are two ways to ask someone their name. When speaking to an adult to say ¿Come se llama?

When speaking to an peer you say ¿Como te llama?

If someone was to ask you ¿Como te llama?, meaning "What's your name", you would say in respone

"Me llama es ___(your name)"

Finally if someone ask you your name and you want to know what's theirs in return you say (if adult) ¿Como se llama (Usted)? or just ¿Y Usted?. When asking a peer what's their name in response you say ¿Como te llamo (tu)?, or just ¿Y tu?.


¿Y? Makes the E sound


When asking someone how they are doing you say:

 ¿Como estas?(peer)

  ¿Como esta?(adult)

        ¿Que tal?


Ways to tell someone how you are doing:

(Muy) Bein, gracias = (Very) Good thankyou

Mas o menos. = Regular/fine/okay/average

 (Muy) Mal = (Very) Terrible


Just like the names, if someone ask you how you're doing and you want to know how they're doing in return you say:

¿Como estas(tu)? or just ¿Y tu? (peer).

When asking an adult you say ¿Como esta (usted)? or just ¿Y Usted?
