We have compiled a Spanish tourist phrasebook so that you can use simple combinations of words to form a simple question and understand a simple answer. With the help of our phrasebook, you will not be able to participate in a philosophical discussion or discuss an event.
In our Russian-Spanish phrasebook, intended for tourists, we have collected those words and expressions that we ourselves used. Just what you need to communicate.
Hasta la vista, baby!
I must say right away that Galya and I do not speak Spanish, only spoken English. But before the trip, as always, we learned phrases that help simple communications.
Some, of course, we knew. Among such well-known phrases were the famous words: “Hasta la vista, baby.” Naively, we believed that this was a common farewell. Many Spanish phrasebooks we found on the Internet reported that "Hasta la vista" is "goodbye."
Naturally, we applied our “knowledge of Spanish” at the first opportunity. Imagine our amazement when the owner of the house in Santander, where we booked a pretty room on the second floor, turned pale and agitated. We were going for a walk around the city and said goodbye to him in the way we know - "Hasta la vista". Instead of "baby" we, of course, inserted his name.
Deciding that our pronunciation was not clear enough, we once again said goodbye together. This time more clearly and loudly, so that the Spaniard understood us for sure.
He was stunned and began to ask what we did not like so much in his house. I had to resort to the application described above.
Soon we learned that we were saying goodbye to the owner forever. He decided that we would never return...
Conclusion: Spaniards almost never use this phrase. Here's "goodbye" to you! Just say "Adios!" And, of course, smile)
Another useful word that we often heard from the Spaniards when asked how to get to a boring place for us is “rotonda”.
Rotunda - a place on the road where a roundabout is made. We have more common intersections, and in Spain - roundabouts (thus they get rid of unnecessary traffic lights). Naturally, it is more convenient to indicate the direction in which Galya and I are moving from some point. In 80% it was a rotunda (circle).
I must say that even with a map of the city in hand, it is not easy to navigate in Spain, because. they very rarely write street names on houses. The most convenient in this regard is Germany. In Germany, street names are on every pole and with directions.
Check . You need to know at least a little the names of the numbers. It is best to have a notepad and pen handy. When you buy something, calmly ask to write down the cost in a notebook.
The phrase "speak slower, I don't understand Spanish well" helps.
Another personal observation. In Russia, we often turn to strangers with the words: “Excuse me ... or Excuse me, how can I get through ...” In Spanish, the word por favor (por favor) - please recommend using before contacting. For example, on the street. "Por favor (please, in our sense," excuse me please), and then the question is how to get to Torres Street (for example).
We have noticed that almost all Spaniards exclaim "¡Hola!" (Ola). But beggars and beggars, just addressing, pronounce "porfavor". Maybe Galya and I came across such polite beggars, maybe we were just lucky and this is an accident, but we decided to pronounce the word “por favor” in specific situations - in a store or in personal communication, already in the process of communication, and on the street turn to people with the greeting "¡Hola!" But this is only our observation.

Spanish Dialogue Example
Of course, during a conversation it is inconvenient to go into a phrasebook and read. Some words are worth learning. You can prepare questions in a notebook. In extreme cases, you can poke your finger into a printed phrasebook.
Here is an example of a dialogue compiled from this phrasebook:
- Ola (greeting)
- Me he perdido (I'm lost). Puede usted ayudarme? (could you help me?) Donde esta? (where is) La calle (street) …. Torres?
With this phrasebook you asked a question. Now the most important thing begins: you need to understand the answer.
1. Show the map of the city
2. If there is no map, take a notepad and a pen
3. Ask, feel free to:
— ¿Podria usted hablar más despacio? (Could you speak more slowly). No comprendo! (I don't understand). Repitan por favor (repeat please). ¿Me lo puede escribir? (Can you write it? In our case, draw it).
1. Ask again and clarify:
- Lejos (far?) Todo recto (straight?) A la izquierda (left?) A la derecha (right?)
2. Watch your hands and facial expressions
3. At the end, do not forget to say:
Muchas gracias (thank you very much). Adios (goodbye!)
Before going to Spain, Galya and I watched the lessons
« Polyglot. Spanish from scratch in 16 hours " (Channel "Culture")
Sincerely,
Currently, Spain is the country most frequently visited by Russian-speaking tourists. However, for some reason, the Spaniards are in no hurry to learn Russian, however, like English. In Barcelona, Madrid and major tourist cities it is quite possible to speak English, but if you want to see non-tourist Spain, be prepared for the fact that the locals will only speak Spanish. Apparently, this is why most tourists either trustingly tie themselves to Russian-speaking hotel guides, or are constantly engaged in pantomime, communicating with the Spaniards :)
To make your stay more enjoyable and comfortable, try to memorize a few essential words and phrases in Spanish.
I want to warn you right away that Spanish may sound indecent for Russian speakers, but keep in mind that “h” is almost never read, two “ll” are read as “y”. For example,
- Huevo is Spanish for "webo" (egg)
- Huesos is read as "uEsos" (bones)
- Perdi - “perdI” (I lost) - from the verb perder (to lose)
- Dura - “fool” (lasts)
- Prohibir - “probIr” (prohibit)
- Debil - “debil” (weak) - often found on water bottles, means that the water is, for example, lightly carbonated.
- Llevar - “yebar” (to wear). Para llevar - "para yebar" (takeaway, for example, food in a takeaway cafe)
- Fallos - “fayOs” (errors)
So let's go - the most useful words and phrases in Spanish!
Greetings, farewells in Spanish
In the photo: the faster you learn a few phrases in Spanish, the more pleasant you will be on vacation :)In Spain, to greet a person, you just need to call him Olya :)
It is written - Hola! Pronounced - a cross between "Ol I” and “Ol a”
A more formal greeting: “Good afternoon!” - Buenos dias! - pronounced "b" At enos d And ace”
Good evening! — Buenas Tardes! - “buenas tardes” - is always used in the afternoon.
Good night! — Buenas Nights! - "buenas noches" (night) - consumed after 19 hours.
To say goodbye, Spaniards rarely say the famous, thanks to Arnold Schwarzenegger, phrase “hasta la vista” (see you later). Most often they will say: “see you soon!” – Hasta luego! – “Asta luEgo”
Well, or they say “goodbye (those)” - Adios - “adyos”
Tell the interlocutor your name, for example: “my name is Anton” - Me llamo Anton - “me yamo Anton”
You can say where you are from: “I am Russian / Russian” - Soy ruso / rusa - “soy ruso / rusa”
Daily words and phrases in Spanish, courtesy
Residents of Malgrad de Mar talking in the street
Affirmative answer: yes - Si
No - No.
It’s more polite, of course, to say “no, thanks!” - No, gracias! – “but, gracias”
A very important word that always helps in Spain: "please" - por favor- "por favor"
And another "thank you" Gracias- “gracias” (in the middle of the word, the letter “c” is fuzzy and even lisping)
In response, you can hear: “no way!” - De nada - “de nada”
If we want to apologize, we say “I'm sorry” - Perdon - “perdOn”
Spaniards often respond to this: “everything is in order (nothing to worry about)!” - No pasa nada - “but pasa nada”
How to ask for directions in Spanish
To practice Spanish, ask the locals for directions
Sometimes a tourist gets a little lost in the city. Then it's time to ask in Spanish:
where is…? – ?Donde esta…? – “Dongde estA?”
For example, if you are going to travel and can't find the bus station, learn the phrase in Spanish: "donde esta la parada de autobus?" Of course, a detailed answer in Spanish can be discouraging, but the Spaniard will most likely duplicate the direction with his hand :)
Street signs in the city of Figueres
Here are some more useful Spanish words for directions:
To the left - Izquierda - "Isquierda"
To the right - Derecha - "derEcha"
Straight - Recto - “recto”
In Spanish, "street" - Calle - "caye"
We ask where is the Rambla - ?Donde esta la calle Rambla? – “donde esta la caye rambla?”
We ask where is the beach - ?Donde esta la playa? – “Donde estA la playa?”
You can search for the embassy of the Russian Federation - “Where is the embassy of Russia?” – ?Donde esta la embajada de Rusia? – “Donde estA la EmbahAda de Rusia?”
Another useful line: “Where is the toilet?” – ?Donde estan los aseos? – “donde estan los asEos?”
Basic Spanish words for transport
To navigate along the way, the tourist still has to remember a dozen Spanish words.
Schedule – Horario – “orArio”
Sale – Venta
Ticket (for transport) - Billete - “BiyEte” or “BilEte”. You can say "ticketE" - they also understand normally.
If you need a round trip ticket, the cashier needs to say: “Ida i Vuelta” - “Ida and vuelta”
Card (travel pass, subscription, it is also a bank card) - Tarjeta - “tarheta”
The next station is Proxima parada
Train - Tren - “tren”
Path, platform - Via - “bia”
Taxi / metro / bus - Taxi, metro, autobus - “taxi, metro, autobus”
Express your opinion or desire in Spanish
Advanced tourists very quickly begin to understand and speak Spanish
I like! - Me gusta - “me gusta!”
I do not like! - No me gusta - “but me gusta!”
I would like (a) - Querria - “querria”
This is good! - Esta bien - “est bien!”)
Very well! - Muy bien - “muy bien!”
I don't want! - No quiero - “but quiero!”
Clarifications about mutual understanding + help
I don't speak Spanish - No hablo espanol - "but Ablo Español"
Do you speak Russian? - Habla ruso? – “Abla Russo?”
Speak English? – Habla ingles? “Abla Inglas?”
At first, this phrase will be the most popular: “I don’t understand” - No entiendo - “but entiendo”
The Spaniards very often confirm, they say, “Understood” - “Vale” - “Bala!”
"Help me please!" “Ayudeme, por favor!” - “AyudEme, por favor!”
Shopping, booking
In the photo: tourists are interested in the prices of souvenirs in Bilbao
What it is? – ?Que es esto? – “ke es Esto?”
Basic phrase for shopping: “how much?” – ?Cuanto cuesta? – “cuAnto cuEsta?”)
If you are going to pay for the purchase with a bank card, it will be - Con tarjeta - “con tarheta”
Cash - Efectivo
Car - Coche - “koche”
Entrance (to any institution) - Entrada - “entrada”
Exit - Salida - "salida"
I booked a room - Tengo una reserva de la habitacion - "tengo una reserva de la habitacion"
If you need to spend the night, you can say: “two beds for this night” - Dos kamas por esta noche - “dos kamas por estA night”
Phrases in Spanish about food (in a restaurant, shop, market)
In the photo: a fragment of the menu in a small restaurant, Malgrad de Mar
Sometimes when buying food in a cafeteria or bar, Spaniards ask: Do you take food “to go?” – Para levar? – “para yebar?”. If you want to eat in a cafe, then you can answer a short “No” and add: “I will eat here” - Para aquí - - “para akki”
I will order ... - Voy a tomar ... - “fight a tomar”
Enjoy your meal! — Buen provecho! - "buen provEcho". Or often just “provEcho!”
Hot - caliente - “caliente”
Warm up - calentar - “calentar”
The check, please! - La cuenta, por favor! – “la cuenta, por favour”
Meat - Carne - “carne”
Fish - Pescado
Chicken - Pollo - “poyo”
If, when ordering chicken, you say not “Poyo”, but “Pollo” (if you read “pollo” as you are used to), you will get an indecent word and you will have to say “Perdon” :)
Seafood – Mariscos
Pasta - Pastas
Bread - Pan - "pan"
Spanish words and phrases about drinks
Drinks – Bebidas
Coffee with milk - Cafe con leche
Beer – Cerveza – “SerbEsa”
The most important phrase for mastering Spain: “two beers, please!”- Dos cerveza, por favor!- “dos serbEsas, por favor!”
Water with gas - Agua con gaz - "Agua con gas"
Water without gas - Agua sin gaz - “Agua sin gas”
Black tea - Té Negro - “te negro”
Green tea - Té Verde - “te verde”
Sugar - Azúcar - "atsUkar"
Spoon - Cuchara - "KuchAra"
Spoon (small) - Cucharilla
Fork - Tenedor - "tenedor"
In Spaniards, the sounds "b" and "c" are almost the same. This will be noticeable when you mention, for example, “wine”
White wine – El vino blanco – “el bino blanco”
Rose wine – Rosado – “El Bino RosAdo”
Red wine – Tinto – “el bino tinto”
If you want to order two glasses of red wine: “two glasses of red, please!”- Dos copas de vino tinto, por favor!– “dos copas de bino tinto, por favor!”
Juice - Zumo - “zumo” (sound fuzzy, lisping)
Orange juice, please - Zumo de Naranjo, por favor! - “zUmo de naranjo, por favor!”

Desearía ser una lágrima tuya... para nacer en tus ojos, vivir en tus mejillas y morir en tus labios. I would like to be your tear...to be born in your eyes, live on your cheeks and die on your lips.
Nunca te arrepientas de lo que hiciste si en aquel momento estabas feliz! Never regret what you did if at that moment you were happy!
Only yours.

Tus deseos son mi flaqueza. Your desires are my weakness.
El tiempo no cura. Time does not heal.
