Hola
Cómo estás?
Ready for a new lesson?
Imagine you are visiting a
Spanish country in Latin America, the Caribbean or maybe Spain. That’s probably why you are here after all.
And suddenly… you are lost.
If you feel your Spanish is
not so good, at least this vocabulary list will help you to ask help while you
find where you are
Where Am I?
Finding your way is a lot easier if you know how to ask
for directions. It's even easier if you understand the response!
DÓNDE ESTÁ?
(WHERE IS ...?)
VOY A ...
(I'M GOING TO)
CÓMO VOY A ... DE AQUÍ?
(HOW DO I GET TO
... FROM HERE?)
PUEDE AYUDARME?
(CAN YOU HELP ME?)
ES LEJOS?
(IS IT FAR?)
PUEDO CAMINAR DE AQUÍ HASTA ALLÁ?
(CAN I WALK FROM
HERE TO THERE?)
DÓNDE ESTÁ IA PARADA DE AUTOBÚS MÁS CERCANA?
(WHERE IS THE
NEAREST BUS STOP?)
DÓNDE PUEDO COMPRAR UN BILLETE?
(WHERE CAN I BUY A
TICKET?)
PUEDE ENSEÑÁRMELO EN ESTA MAPA?
(CAN YOU SHOW IT TO
ME ON THIS MAP?)
And here it’s a
list of Locations:
LA EMBAJADA AMERICANA
(AMERICAN EMBASSY)
LA ESTACIÓN DE METRO
(METRO STATION)
LA ESTACIÓN DE TRENES
(TRAIN STATION)
LA CUADRA
(BLOCK)
EL EDIFICIO
(BUILDING)
LA ACERA
(SIDEWALK)
(LA CALLE)
STREET
(LA ESQUINA)
STREET CORNER
So next time, if
you feel lost in a Spanish country, don’t worry if you are just learning the
language.
See you next
lesson.
Adiós
