DISCLAIMER: Don’t take this too seriously, I might have made a few mistakes. Those of you that speak Spanish, could you correct me if I do make a mistake? Thank you!! 


Hey, guys! I’ve been learning Spanish for almost a month now and I thought, to practice, I’d make a post to help you learn some Spanish! So come along with me and let’s speak some Spanish!!

The Basics

Hello = Hola 

How are you? = ¿Como estas?

Good = Bien

Bad = Mal

So-so = Así así

Good morning! = ¡Buenas Días! 

Good night! = ¡Buenas Noches! 

Bye = Adios

Yes = Si

No = No

What = Que

Sorry = Lo siento

Excuse me = Disculpe

Pardon = Pérdon

Spanish = Español

English = ingles


A, Or, Of, The, And, In, Is, My

A and The are different depending on the gender of a noun. In Spanish, basically all nouns are either male or female, and even some words that aren’t nouns. 

A (feminine) = Una 

A (masculine) = Un

The (feminine) = La 

The (masculine) = El

Of = De

In = En

Or = O

And = Y 

My = Mi 

Is = Es


Eating and Drinking

I eat = Yo como

You eat = Tú comes

He eats = Él come

I drink = Yo bebo

You drink = Tú bebes

He drinks = Él bebe 

Water = Agua

Juice = Jugo

Milk = Leche

Coffee = Cafe

Orange = Naranja 

Apple = Manzanas

Bread = Pan

Salad = Ensalada 

Tomato = Tomate 

With = Con (i.e. ensalada con tomate)

Without = Sin (i.e ensalada sin tomate)

Cup = Taza


Describing Family and People

Girl = Niña

Boy = Niño

Man = Hombre

Woman = Mujer

Friend (feminine) = Amiga

Friend (masculine)= Amigo

Referring to multiple friends = Amigos

Best friend = Mejor amigo/amiga

Mom = Madre/mama

Dad = Padre/papa

Sister = Hermana

Brother = Hermano 

Aunt = Tía

Uncle = Tío

Grandfather = Abuelo

Grandmother = Abuela

Cousin (boy) = Primo

Cousin (girl) = Prima


Numbers (to 30)

Starting with 1 = Uno

Uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, seis, siete, ocho, nueve, diez, once, doce, trece, catorce, quince, dieciséis, diecisiete, dieciocho, diecinueve, veinte, veinte y uno, veinte y dos, veinte y tres, vienticuatro, veinticinco, veintiséis, veintisiete, veintiocho, veintinueve, treinta!


Important Notes

To be grammatically correct in Spanish, you must have Un, El, La or Una in front of a noun. So for instance, “Un niño.” “La mujer.” “El papa.” “Una madre.” Even, “El jugo,” “La manzana.”

HOWEVER this doesn’t apply if you’re trying to say something like your mom or my mom. 

“Tú mama,” “Mi mama.”

Even your juice, “Tú jugo,” instead of “Tú el jugo-“ (your the juice??)

Most Spanish words are feminine and masculine (specifically nouns). Normally, a word ending with O is masculine, and a word ending in A is feminine. This isn’t always the case though.

~

In Spanish, adjectives come after nouns! I have not stated any adjectives, so here is a color- “blanca,” which means white. Instead of saying, “Mi blanca leche,” you’d say “Mi leche blanca.” This goes for any noun you are describing. 

~

Eat in English is basically the same thing, except “He eats” ends with an S. I tend to get confused in Spanish because the word changes depending on who your talking about, and they all mean the same thing. Same with drink, or speak. I think all verbs. It’s still basically the same, except remember

He eats = Él come

You eat = Tú comes

I eat = Él como

Try not to mix these up!!

~

When you need to use proper punctuation, for questions it would be like this - “¿(insert words)?”

And exclaiming is “¡(insert words)!” 

~

If you ever need to say I don’t speak Spanish, say

“Yo no hablo Español”


I hope I taught you many new things, and maybe you can string a few sentences together!! Enjoy, mi amigos!!!
