Hello, dear Steemians.

I hope you're doing great.

Welcome to the first episode of the season, today, we'll be learning how to greet in Spanish as a native speaker.

The first things you need to do is to identify which type of context you're in.

Formal?

Informal?

Formal Situation

When:

• Business meetings
• Job Interviews
• Meeting someone
• As a courtesy when arriving at an establishment, shop, restaurant, etc.

---

How:

When you're arriving at a... / you come into a... :

• Buenos días = Good morning
• Buenas tardes = Good afternoon
• Buenas noches = Good evening

You can also use the common sentence: Hola, ¿Cómo estas? = Hi, how are you?

When you're meeting someone:

• Hola, encantada de conocerte = Hi, pleased/nice to meet you (for women)
• Hola, encantado de conocerte = Hi, pleased/nice to meet you (for men)

then you can add:

• Mi nombre es ... = My name is...

When you want to know how she/he is:

• ¿Cómo has estado? = how have you been?
• ¿Cómo te ha ido? = how have you been going?
• ¿Cómo te está yendo? = how's everything going?

Informal Situation

When:

• At the office talking with your partners
• Hanging out with your friends or family

---

How:

• Hola, ¿Qué tal? = Hi, what's up?
• ¿Cómo te va? = How's it going?
• ¿Cómo está todo? = How's everything? (here we usually meant to ask about his/her family, work, life, etc)

Venezolanismos

This is a section with our common sentences, interjections, words and many other things.

Here in Venezuela, instead of saying:

• Hola David (Hi, David) - we say: Hola chamo (Hi, boy/buddy)
• Hola María (Hi, María) - we say: Hola chama (Hi girl)
• Hola (Hi/Hello) - we say: ¡Épale!

Youtube

This is it! Please let me know your thoughts about this, below in the comment section. I've been thinking maybe about do a Speaking Spanish challenge... What do you think about it?. Thank you so much for watching, spread the word if liked it. See you next week.

¡Chao, chao!
