How to Greet Someone

Greeting someone is the first thing you do when you start a conversation with someone. Greeting someone is saying hello, asking how they are, and answering.

The way to say hello is “¡hola!

There are two ways to ask, “How are you?” in an informal way: ¿Qué tal? and ¿Cómo estás (tú)? And two in formal: ¿Qué tal? and ¿Cómo está (Ud)?

Informal is for friends and family, and formal for adults and when being

respectful.

The way to answer this is by saying Estoy… which means I am or I’m.

The most commonly used words in my class are:






Some challenging words that you might want to try are:





After you are done greeting each other say thank you by saying Gracias.

This is useful because you might need to ask people how they are doing if you visit another

country or if you meet someone that only speaks Spanish like a foreign exchange student.

This skit is of two friends greeting each other:

What’s the Time?

When asking what time it is, say ¿Qué hora es?

The way to respond to this is Son las… and then the number.

You will need the numbers from 2 to 59.




















Short cuts with time:




* When saying 1 o’clock it is different, you say Es la una.

5:45 – Son las seis menos cuarto.

5:15 – Son las cinco y cuarto.

1:00 – Es la una.

This is useful because you might need to ask the time. This helps make sure you’re not late!

This skit is of a student that does not know the time and need to know:

How to ask for someone’s phone number

(For numbers see number charts above)

You might want to use something like these to end the conversation:
