Where and how to speak Spanish correctly?

On the Spanish spoken by about 500 million people on the planet. There are about 60 countries in the world with significant Hispanic populations, even America is a country where spanish is spoken.

Spanish language is one of the easiest languages ​​to learn. Almost all words in it are read as they are written, with some exceptions:

h - not readable

ll - reads like "y", but there are still other national variants of "l", "j"

y - reads like "y", and if used as a union, then "and"

j - reads like Russian "x"

z - as "c" ( Latin America) or English "th" (Spain)

ñ - reads softly "ny"

r - "pp" if it is at the beginning of a sentence or when there are two rr

c - before a, o, u - as "k"; before e, i - as "c" (Latin America) or English "th" (Spain)

g - before i and e - like the Russian "x", before the rest of the vowels "g".

The identity of the culture of the people is expressed in the dialect and language spoken by the population of the country. Studying Russian-Spanish phrasebook, take a look at our foreign phrasebooks for travel to other foreign countries:

So now you know how to speak spanish correctly... We recommend that you print this with pronunciation and use it when traveling.

Currently, Spain is the country most frequently visited by Russian-speaking tourists. However, for some reason the Spaniards are in no hurry to learn Russian, as well as English. In Barcelona, ​​Madrid and major tourist cities, it is quite possible to communicate in English, but if you want to see non-tourist Spain, be prepared for the fact that the locals will only speak Spanish. Apparently that is why most tourists either trustingly attach themselves to Russian-speaking hotel guides, or constantly engage in pantomime, communicating with the Spaniards :)
To make your vacation more enjoyable and comfortable, try to remember a few of the most necessary words and phrases in Spanish.

I want to warn you right away that the Spanish language may sound indecent to Russian speakers, but keep in mind that “h” is almost never read, two “ll” are read like “th”. For example,

• Huevo in Spanish reads “uebo” (egg)
• Huesos reads "huesos" (bones)
• Perdi - "Perdi" (I lost) - from the verb perder (to lose)
• Dura - "fool" (lasts)
• Prohibir - "proibir" (prohibit)
• Debil - "dEbil" (weak) - often found on water bottles, means that the water, for example, is slightly carbonated.
• Llevar - Yebar (to wear). Para llevar - “para yebar” (takeaway, for example, takeaway food in a cafe)
• Fallos - "file" (errors)

So let's go - the most useful words and phrases in Spanish!

Greetings, goodbyes in Spanish

In the photo: the faster you learn a few phrases in Spanish, the more pleasant it will be for you on vacation :)

In Spain, to greet a person, you just need to call him Olya :)
It is written - Hola! Pronounced - a cross between "Ol I"And" OL but”

A more formal greeting: "Good afternoon!" - Buenos dias! - pronounced “b Have enos d AND as "

Good evening! - Buenas Tardes! - “buenAs tArdes” - always used in the afternoon.
Goodnight! - Buenas Noches! - “buenAs noches” (night) - used after 7 pm.

To say goodbye, Spaniards rarely say the famous, thanks to Arnold Schwarzenegger, phrase “hasta la vista” (see you). Most often they will say: "see you soon!" - Hasta luego! - "Asta LuEgo"
Well, or they say "goodbye (those)" - Adios - "adyOs"

Tell the interlocutor your name, for example: "my name is Anton" - Me llamo Anton - "me yAmo Anton"
You can say where you come from: "I am Russian / Russian" - Soy ruso / rusa - "soy ruso / rusa"

Daily Spanish words and phrases, courtesy

Residents of Malgrad de Mar talking in the street

Yes - Si
No - No.
It is more polite, of course, to say "no, thanks!" - No, gracias! - "but grAsias"

A very important word that always helps in Spain: "please" - por favor- "por favor"
And also "thank you" - Gracias- "grAsias" (in the middle of the word the letter "c" is indistinct and even lisping)

In response, you can hear: "not at all!" - De nada - "de nada"

If we want to apologize, we say “I'm sorry” - Perdon - “fart”
To this the Spaniards often answer: "everything is all right (no big deal)!" - No pasa nada - "but pasa nada"

How to ask directions in Spanish

To practice Spanish, ask the locals for directions

Sometimes the tourist gets a little lost in the city. Then it's time to ask in Spanish:
where is…? -? Donde esta ...? - "Donde esta?"

For example, if you are going to travel and cannot find the bus station, learn the phrase in Spanish: “dOnde esta la parAda de autobus?” Of course, a detailed answer in Spanish can be discouraging, but a Spaniard will most likely duplicate the direction with his hand :)

Street signs in Figueiras town

Here are some other useful Spanish words for directions:

To the left - Izquierda - "IskErda"
To the right - Derecha - "derecha"
Straight - Recto - "rEkto"

In Spanish "street" - Calle - "kaye"

We ask where is the Rambla -? Donde esta la calle Rambla? - "dONde esta la kaye rambla?"
We ask where is the beach -? Donde esta la playa? - "Donde esta la playa?"

You can look for the Russian Embassy - "Where is the Russian Embassy?" -? Donde esta la embajada de Rusia? - "donde esta la embahada de rusia?"
Another helpful line is, "Where is the toilet?" -? Donde estan los aseos? - "donde estan los aceos?"

Basic Spanish words for transport

To navigate along the way, a tourist still has to memorize a dozen Spanish words

Schedule - Horario - "orArio"
Sale - Venta - "Venta"

I would like to - Querria - "qErria"
This is good! - Esta bien - "Esta bien!")

"Help me please!" -? Ayudeme, por favor! - "AyudEme, then favorite!"

Shopping, reservations

In the photo: tourists are interested in the prices of souvenirs in Bilbao

What it is? -? Que es esto? - "ke es esto?"
Basic shopping phrase: "how much does it cost?" -? Cuanto cuesta? - "Quanto cuEsta?")

Cash - Efectivo - Efectivo

Car - Coche - "Koche"
Entrance (to any institution) - Entrada - "entrada"

Phrases in Spanish about food (in a restaurant, shop, in the market)

Photo: fragment of the menu in a small restaurant, Malgrad de Mar

Sometimes when you buy food in a cafeteria or a bar, the Spaniards ask: Do you take the food “to go?” - Para llevar? - "para yebar?" If you want to eat in a cafe, you can answer with a short “No” and add: “I will eat here” - Para aquí - - “PARA AKI”

Our Spanish expert Natalya Volkova has compiled a selection of essential phrases. Thanks to them, you will be able to deeply feel the atmosphere of this cheerful country and touch its daily life. In addition, it has long been known that most Spaniards do not speak English.

Learning to greet and say goodbye in Spanish

The simplest universal greeting ¡Hola! - Hey!

There are also phrases that indicate the time of day, for example: ¡Buenos días! - Good morning! Good afternoon! (can be heard from 6.00 to 12.00 noon), ¡Buenas tardes! - Good afternoon! (from 12.00 to 20.00) and ¡Buenas noches! - Good evening! (from about 20.00) with the same phrase the Spaniards wish "Good night!" The answer to these greetings can be the repetition of these phrases, or only part of them: ¡Buenas tardes! - ¡Buenas!
