In Spanish the day of the week starts on Monday, not Sunday like in America.
Important: The Spanish days of the week start with
no capital letters.
On a piece of paper, write this calendar and fill
out the top, empty spaces with the days of the week in Spanish…
Here are a few practice problems in Spanish asking
for the day of the week that the date is on, try them out (use the calendar above) :
Qué dia de la semana es el 5 de octubré? _________
Qué dia de la semana es el 22 de octubre? ________
Qué dia de la semana es el 11 de octubre? ________
To have a proper conversation we must know how to..
1.) Ask general questions(birthday, date, games ect).
2.) How to Respond to certain questions.
3.) How to speak in the right manner.
Here are some general questions and answers:
General questions are the essentials in a
conversation. They are like the baseline to keep the conversation flowing. If
you know how to have a conversation then you should know how to survive in the
Spanish jungle. =).
In the case
of "Como té llamas", when using 'té
llamas', you should speak to a person of a higher stature. (Ex; the President, a
boss, a manager, ect.)
When using the term 'se llamas', you should usually
be speaking to friends/family.
IMPORTANT; Remember not to get “mucho gusto” and “igualmente”
mixed up, mucho gusto is always first.
When saying igualmente, it is pronounced exactly how
it is spelled. Imagine saying Eagle and mint-e. Eaglement-e.
These are the basic terms you will need to know to
start a conversation with someone, try with a friend and see how well you do.
Below is a link that will help you pronounce the words above.
