Vannary, Sarah-Charlotte, AprilWhen You Meet Someone for the first Time:

Posted by Vannary Kom in Spanish 1 - Sanchez on


When you meet someone new, whats the first thing you often ask? Thats right! You ask for their name! After reading this, you will know how to ask someone their name and respond to that question yourself! All in Spanish, of course. The first thing you need to know for Names is Nombre is the word for "name" in Spanish. To teach you about names, I am going to use bullets. Again names have formal and informal.


• ¿Cómo te llamas (tú)? [informal]
   ¿Cómo se llama (Ud.)? [formal]   = Whats your name?

• Me llamo __________. ; Yo soy _______. ; Mi nombre es _________. = My name is ______.

• If you were going to say "and you?" after you tell someone your name... you would say either ¿Y tú? when you talk to a younger person or ¿Y Usted (Ud.)? when your talking to an older person.

These are all things to say when you meet someone new. 
*******NOTE: Remember which ones are formal and informal! (tú vs. Usted [Ud.]) ********
