Have you ever bumped into someone and they couldn’t speak anything but Spanish and you wanted to say excuse me in Spanish. Well that happened to me. In this lesson I will show you all kinds of different manors you can say in Espanol. It isn’t difficult at all.

1. When you say thank you, you say Gracia’s        It is pronounced Grrraaasia’s

2. When you say Thank’s a lot you say                    It is pronounced Moochass Grrraaasia’s

Muchas Gracias!!!!                                                

3. When you say Thank’s a Million you say           It is pronounced Miil Grrraaasia’s

Mil Gracias!!!!

There are several ways to say your welcome en espanol.  For a reminder when you see R’s in espanol, you role your tongue always.

The first way to say Your Welcome in espanol is:

1. De nada                 You pronounce it like this:             day na da

2. Por` nada              You pronounce it like this:              Poor` na da

3. No hay de que      You pronounce it like this:              No hay d ke

If you didn’t ever catch what someone said you would say in Spanish:

1. Como                    You pronounce it like this:                Co mo

Como is an easy word to say because the word has two O’s and you have to add a C in the beginning and an M in the middle of the word.

If you need to say please in Spanish you would need to say:

1. Por Favor             You pronounce it like this:                Poor` Favor`                           

There are three ways of saying excuse me in Spanish. They are:

Con Permiso (When someone is standing in your way)       You pronounce it like this:    Con Per me so

Disculpe (to get someone’s attention)                                        You pronounce it like this:    Dis culp ay

Perdon (if you accidentally bump into someone)                   You pronounce it like this:    Per` don

(Scenario)

William was walking very fast to get to work and he bumped into Samuel and this is what they said:

William: Perdon (Excuse Me)

Samuel:  Esta Bien (It’s ok)

William: ¿Como te llamas?

Samuel: Mi nombre es Samuel

William:  ¿Como?

Samuel:  Samuel

William: Mucho gusto

Samuel: Igualmente!!!

Have you ever wanted to know what time it was saying it in Spanish? I have wanted to know. Asking the time and telling the time is an easy way of saying it in Spanish. It isn’t really hard at all. In this lesson I will teach you how to ask and tell time in Spanish so that you will know how to answer, or ask the question, what time it is in Spanish.

You could ask what time it is in three ways.

What time is it?

1.  ¿You say Queue Hoar es?                                You pronounce it like this:     K   Or`a     es

2. ¿You say Que Hora son?                             You pronounce it like this:     K    Ora      son

3. ¿You say Que Hora tiene?                          You pronounce it like this:      K Ora   ty   iene

When you want to say o clock you must say

1. Es la una                                                   You pronounce it like this:           S   La una

When you say a full sentence with a number you must have in the front:

Son las:        For example       Son Las dos (2)          2:00

                                                      Son las tres (3)           3:00

                                                      Son las cuatro (4)      4:00

When you say 15 in time, you must say

1.  Y cuatro      For example        Dos y cuatro         2:15

                                                           Tres y cuatro        3:15

                                                           Diez y cuatro        10:15

When you say 30 in time you must say

1.   Y media      For example       Dos y media           2:30

                                                           Tres y media        3:30

                                                           Diez y media         10:30

When you say 45 in time you must say

1. Meno’s cuatro      For example       Ocho meno’s cuatro        8:45

                                                                     Cinco meno’s cuatro       5:45

                                                                     Nueve meno’s cuatro      9:45

Reminder:  Number’s of minutes before an hour is always said meno’s in Spanish.

(Scenario)

What's the date? Does this question sound familiar? This is a common question we all ask at one point. Well, when you need to know, ask someone, "¿Cual es la fecha de hoy?" That's how you ask for the date. Someone will then reply with, "Hoy es el (#) de (mes)." This means, "It's the (#) of (month)." You would then know the date. How about months? Do you know the months? Let's go over it.

1. enero : January

2. febrero : February

3. marzo : March

4. abril : April

5. mayo : May

6. junio : June

7. julio : July

8. agosto : August

9. septiembre : September

10. octubre : October

11. noviembe : November

12. deciembre : December

You are trying to do a worksheet. But you can't even get to the first problem since you can't fill in the date box. You wonder for a good minute and finally ask your friend.You ask, "¿Cual es la fecha de hoy?" Your friend then replies, "Hoy es el( #) de (mes)."Now you know the date. Your worksheet is based on months. You partner up with your friend to say the months.

1. lunes : Monday

2. martes : Tuesday

3. miercoles : Wednesday

4. jueves : Thursday

5. viernes : Friday

6. sabado : Saturday

You arrive at school. You wonder what today is so you can figure out your schedule. You ask your friend what today is. You say, "Que dia es hoy?" Your friend replies with "viernes." Know you know it's Friday. And that you forgot to study for the quiz. ¡Ay, Dios Mio!
