Learning to speak fluently in a second language can be difficult. However, if you’re getting ready for vacation in a foreign country, you’ll certainly want to have at least a basic understanding of the language. The good news is that you don’t have to be fluent to vacation in a Spanish-speaking country. As long as you learn a few basic phrases to help you communicate, a Spanish-to-English dictionary can help with the rest.

If you’re just looking for a few phrases to get you started, though, here are some common Spanish words in English translations.

Top Spanish words in English

Introductory Phrases

• ¡Hola! – Hello!
• Me llamo…/Mi nombre es… – My name is…
• ¿Cómo te llamas? – What is your name?

Commonly, people respond with, ”Mucho gusto!” after introducing themselves to one another, which is similar to saying, ”It’s a pleasure to meet you!”

Finally, there’s the all important ”¿Habla inglés?” These Spanish words in English literally mean, ”Do you speak English?” which can be helpful to know upfront. ”No entiendo” (I don’t understand) and ”No hablo español” (I don’t speak Spanish) are also important.

Common Spanish Greetings

In addition to the standard ”Hola!” there are several other Spanish phrases people use as greetings. Here are some of the most common.

The ”Good” Day Greetings

All ”Good” greetings – good morning, good afternoon and goodnight – begin with the word ”buenos,” which literally means ”good.” You can follow that with ”días” (morning), ”tardes” (afternoon) or ”noches” (night/evening) depending on the appropriate time of day.

The ”How are you?” Greetings

There’s a formal and an informal way of asking someone, ”How are you?” in Spanish. Formal is used in professional settings or when you don’t know a person well. Informal is used in casual situations or with friends.

”¿Cómo está usted?” is the formal.

”¿Cómo estás?” is the informal.

You could also say, ”¿Qué haces?” for ”What’re you doing?” or ”¿Qué tal?” for ”What’s up?”

Common responses to these questions include the following:

• Muy bien – Very well
• Así, así – So-so

Most people respond with, ”¿Y tú?” (and you?).

Polite Words

Wherever you go in the world, politeness is key to having a successful trip. Here are a few phrases you’ll definitely want to know.

• Por favor — Please
• ¡Gracias! — Thank you!
• ¡De nada! — You’re welcome!
• ¡Lo siento! — Sorry!

It’s also important to learn to answer yes (”Sí”), no (”No”) and maybe (”Tal vez”) when answering questions.

Farewell Phrases

A friendly goodbye is just as important as a friendly greeting. Here are a few to learn.

• Adiós/Chao – Goodbye
• ¡Tenga un buen día! – Have a good day!
• Hasta luego – See you later

In Summary

These are only a few of the most basic Spanish words and phrases. Be sure to practice and listen to audio of people speaking Spanish words in English and Spanish as often as possible. This’ll help ensure you can hold your own language-wise on that next vacation.
