“As a tenured educator and facilitator I truly
appreciated Julie’s ability to flexibly adapt
to multiple learning styles in her training/
classroom. She infuses many aspects into her
curriculum, hence maximizing student results.
Two years of studying Spanish was nothing
compared to what I learned in two weeks time
with Julie. Her philosophy works!”

designed to teach our employees to communicate
with our Spanish-speaking customers. We learned
the language, plus important cultural facts about
Spanish-speaking countries.”

with all languages. Gracias Maestra!”

level and yet challenging in a polite way.”

casino, having our Leaders understand basic
conversational Spanish is critical to their
success in interacting with their teams. Julie
does a phenomenal job making the classes she
teaches fun and interactive. I would highly
recommend Julie as a competent, passionate,
and enthusiastic trainer.”
—Jackie Hansen

“When learning to speak a new language,
students often feel shy or intimidated when
trying to put together more than a few words.

Spanish makes the learning process fun and
easy, so students show more confidence in
pronouncing words and forming sentences.
I would recommend these beneficial key
words and phrases - whether for personal or

IS ONE OF THE LARGEST IN THE WORLD.
Introduction:
A Tour of the Book
Welcome = ¡Bienvenidos!
We are so glad you have joined this learning adventure, and we hope you will
be able to use these phrases immediately. This book has useful, practical phrases
designed to help anyone communicate with Hispanic friends and clients. If you have
forgotten your high school Spanish, and you really need to communicate, then this
is the book for you.
Spanish Chatbook will help you speak in real-world Spanish right now. Each of
the six lessons includes 12-15 conversational phrases. The first time a phrase is
introduced, it will have the English phrase = the Spanish phrase followed by the
pronunciation guide in italics. This guide is meant to help a native English speaker
read the Spanish phrase out loud and pronounce the words correctly.
2
SPANISH CHATBOOK
Each new word in the pronunciation guide is capitalized. For example, nice to
meet you = mucho gusto (Moo-cho Goose-toe). A single letter is pronounced as the
letter. Bien = (B-N) A word with an accent mark means that that syllable is stressed
and should be emphasized when spoken. For example, telephone = teléfono (TellLay-phone-oh) indicates to put the emphasis on the “LAY” in this word.
Lessons 1-6 are primarily written in the polite Usted form, most commonly
spoken among adult acquaintances and used for cutomer service. Usted is
pronounced Ew-sted—like the ew in the word “new”. Our book, Business Spanish
Chatbook includes 180 phrases that use Usted and will help supervisors or customer
service representatives. Our other book, Culinary Spanish Chatbook is written in the
informal Tú which is used among close friends. Both books can be purchased on
our website, www.SpanishChatCompany.com.
Each lesson contains a review of the phrases from the previous lesson, 12-15 new
phrases, spoken practice, multiple choice exercises, matching, a skit with a typical
conversation, grammar tidbits, translation practice, an exam, flashcards, games
and puzzles. Awareness of the Hispanic culture is woven into each lesson with facts
about each Spanish-speaking country, trivia questions, an explanation of cultural
differences in styles and overall cultural diversity considerations. You will need dice,
scissors and bingo pieces or small paper scraps for the activities.
A few partner exercises are included in each lesson. Find a friend, family member
or native speaker to help you with these activities. A lunch study group that meets
for an hour or two each week is ideal. Each lesson will take about 1-2 hours to
complete. Many native speakers will have a variety of ways to say the same sentence,
such as “How are you?”, “How are you doing?”, “How is it going?” and “What’s up?”
None of the ways are wrong. They are just, different styles. In Spanish Chatbook, we
have chosen a phrase and will review that same phrase over and over. Feel free to
change and customize it to fit the slang of your Hispanic friends. We’ve tried to use
correct Spanish without being too formal or too “Spanglish”. Don’t get discouraged.
Keep trying to learn!
To improve your pronunciation, purchase the Spanish Chatbook CD. Each time
you see the CD symbol on the left, follow along to improve your Spanish skills. On
the CD, native speakers pronounce the Spanish phrases, allow time for you to repeat
them, and act out each of the phrases in conversational role plays. Listen to over
75 phrases and typical conversations while driving, working, or exercising. Use the
book and CD together to maximize your learning experience! Order the CD from
our website, www.SpanishChatCompany.com. Spanish Chatbook aims to help you
apply knowledge of Spanish immediately by personalizing the activities and making
learning enjoyable. Let’s go! = ¡Vámonos! (Vah-moe-nose!)

YOU CAN LEARN TO READ SPANISH

This guide will help you pronounce and read every word in Spanish,
although you will have to use detective skills to be able to understand
anything. Read these words and phrases out loud, paying careful
attention to the sounds of each letter.
The vowels = Las vocales:
The good news is, the vowels are always the same!
A = (ah)
la banana (Lah Bah-nah-nah) = the banana
la mamá (Lah Mah-MAH) = the mom
E = (eh)
las escaleras (Lahs S-call-lair-ahs) = the stairs
el bebé (L Bay-BAY) = the baby
I = (eee)sí (See) = yes
qui-qui-ri-quí (Key-key-ree-key) = cock-a-doodle-doo
O = (oh)no (No) = no
¿Cómo? (Co-moh) = How’s that?
U = (ew or oo)
Mucho gusto (Moo-cho Goose-toe) = Nice to meet you.
LESSON 1: READ AND CHAT IN SPANISH IN JUST FIVE MINUTES
The consonants = Las consonantes
B and V
sound similar ¡Vámonos! (Bah-moh-nose) = Let’s go!
H is silent
(Cross it out) Hola.(O-lah) = Hello
Habla (Ah-blah) = talk
J and Ge and Gi
sound like H
Julia (Who-lee-ah) = Julie
José (Ho-say) = Joe

girasol (Here-ah-soul) = sunflower
QUE- Kay ¿Por qué? (Poor-K) = Why?
porque (Poor-K) = because
QUI- Key
¿Quién? (Key- N) = Who?
LL- Yeah or Yah Me llamo _______________.
(May Yah-mow) = My name is_______________.
Ñ- Like bunion Señor (Seen-yore) = Mr. or Sir

Perro (Pair-r-r-row) = dog
Without rolling the r it would be: Pero (Pair-row) = but
Having trouble rolling your RR’s? Your tongue muscle needs exercise. You should
be able to roll your RR’s if you spend a few months practicing this Spanish phrase:
Un tigre, dos tigres, tres tigres = One tiger, two tigers, three tigers
(Ewn T-gray, Doughs T-grays, Trays T-grays)

and Spanish are both Latin-based languages and some words are
similar. Read these words out loud using your new pronunciation skills
and then guess the meaning of each word. When you are finished,
refer to the Answer Key at the back of the book.

Let’s begin chatting with these common greetings and goodbyes.
Read the phrase out loud using the italics to help with pronunciation.
1. Good morning. = Buenos días.
(Bwhen-nose Dee-ahs.)
2. Good afternoon. Good evening. (12 p.m. – dark) =
Buenas tardes.
(Bwhen-nahs Tar-days.)
3. Good night. = Buenas noches.
(Bwhen-nahs No-chays.)
4. See you later. =
Hasta luego.
(Ah-stah Loo-way-go.)
LESSON 1: READ AND CHAT IN SPANISH IN JUST FIVE MINUTES

Circle the English choice that matches the Spanish phrase.
1. Buenos días
a. Good afternoon.
b. Good night.
c. Good morning.
d. Good job.
3. Buenas noches.
a. Good afternoon.
b. Good night.
c. Good morning.

c. Never again.
d. See you soon.
4. Buenas tardes.
a. Good afternoon.
b. Good night.
c. Good morning.
d. Good tacos.
5 = CINCO
Choose a Spanish first name for yourself: (This is the one time in life
where you get to choose your own name.) Check the internet for a
list of Hispanic names. Write your new name here:
Me llamo _______________.
(May Yah-mow _______________.) = My name is _______________.
At your workplace, find a Spanish-speaker and practice saying the appropriate
greeting for the time of day, “buen _______________________.”
For example, “buenas tardes.” Then say, “me llamo _______________________.
Hasta luego.”
If you are working in a group, greet as many people as possible in the next
three minutes. Note: “Me llamo...” literally means, “I am called...” Please do NOT
mistakenly say, “Me llamo es...” which means “I am called is...”. However you can
say, “Mi nombre es...” which is a slightly more formal version of “My name is...”
9
10
SPANISH CHATBOOK
6 = SEIS
In many Hispanic countries, people use two last names every day.
You would use both last names when looking up someone in the
phone book. There are even two blanks on most official government
and school forms. This may cause confusion when dealing with
human resources issues. Be aware that the father’s last name, is
always listed first, followed by the mother’s last name. In other words,
it is your paternal grandfather’s last name followed by your maternal
grandfather’s last name. Confused? Look at the examples below.
Example: José Ramírez García marries María Cruz Vásquez. (See the following
family tree.) Their son is named José Carlos Ramírez Cruz and their daughter is
María Carmen Ramírez Cruz. A woman getting married may keep both her maiden
names or add de _______________ with her husband’s last name. For example, if
the daughter, María Carmen Ramírez Cruz, marries Luis Perez Morales, she may be
María Carmen Ramírez Cruz de Perez or she may drop Cruz and be María Carmen
Ramírez Perez.
In the United States, the son may shorten his name to Carlos Ramirez (dropping
José and Cruz and also dropping the accent mark/tilde). He may choose to hyphenate
his last name as Ramírez-Cruz. José Carlos may even be called Carlitos as a child.
The daughter may be called Carmen Ramírez or even Carmen Perez. In many Latin
American countries, children take pride in reciting not only their two last names,
but adding on the names of more generations. Nicknames and using the endings
of –ito and –ita is common throughout the Hispanic world. Instead of calling a
co-worker “amigo”, it would create better rapport if you would use the co-worker’s
name.

LESSON 1: READ AND CHAT IN SPANISH IN JUST FIVE MINUTES
7 = SIETE
What would your Hispanic name look like?
For example, what was your father’s last name? _______________________+
what was your mother’s maiden name? _______________________ +
(for women only) de _______________________ (your husband’s last name).
If you lived in a Spanish-speaking country, there would be space for these multiple
names on most official forms and documents.
8 = OCHO
Practice this chant using rainsticks, maracas, drums, or some other instrument to
provide rhythm: “A, E, I, O, U, ¿Cómo se llama usted? = What is your name?
(Ah, Eh, Eee, Oh, Ewh, Koh-mow Say Yah-mah Ew-sted?)
At the end of the chant you say, “me llamo _______________.” (May Yah-mow)
meaning, “my name is _______________.” Then say, “mucho gusto.” (Moo-cho
Goose-toe.) which means, “nice to meet you.” If you have a group, play “hot potato”
with a maraca. The person holding the maraca at the end of the chant says, “me
llamo _______________.” The group then replies, “mucho gusto.”
The authentic original rhyme in Latin America is, “A, E, I, O, U, un burro sabe
más que tú,” meaning A, E, I, O, U, a donkey knows more than you. Remember
back to when you or your child was learning to speak English. They start out with
wha-wha for water and everyone cheered. Learn to laugh and cheer at your mistakes
because that means you are at least trying. We will work together as we take baby
steps to learn this new language.

12
SPANISH CHATBOOK
9 = NUEVE
Tú versus Usted (abbreviation Ud.) both words mean YOU in Latin
America. Tú (Two) is the casual and informal you versus Usted (Ewsted like the ew in new), which is the polite and formal way of saying
you. Usted is used as respect for customer service, courtesy, anyone
older, or higher ranking. Use usted for an initial meeting. We will use
the Usted form because it is best for adult acquaintances. Tú is used
with family members and close friends in your same age group. For
more information on using the tú form, we recommend our book;
Culinary Spanish Chatbook.
One company had complaints with a customer service representative who was
always addressing clients in the informal tú form. Her evaluations were lower, due
to this informality. If you are in doubt in a social situation, just ask, “Is it okay to use
the tú form?” = “¿Me puede tutear?” (May Pway-day Two-tee-are?) For more than
one person use Ustedes (Uds.) = Y’all or all of you. In Spain, Vosotros is used instead
of Ustedes.
10 = DIEZ
Do you need an accent = tilde? Here are some computer keyboard
shortcuts. For more Spanish marks and how and when to use an
accent, see our book Business Spanish Chatbook.
ON A PC: For á, é, í, ó, ú, Á, É, Í, Ó, Ú Hold down
these two keys at the same time:

LESSON 1: READ AND CHAT IN SPANISH IN JUST FIVE MINUTES
16 = DIECISÉIS
Latina? Hispanic? Chicano? Mexican?
Which one should you use?
What is the correct term?
àà Spanish is the language. Please don’t call someone a “Spanish” person.
àà Spanish speakers are any persons who speak Spanish regardless of race.
¡Felicidades! = Congratulations! You are now a Spanish speaker.
àà Latinos are people from Latin America (Central and South America) not
usually including Spain. Latino or Latina is used often in the media and for
cultural events.
àà Spaniards are people from Spain.
àà Mexicans are people who were born in México.
àà Chicanos and Mexican-Americans are U.S. citizens of Mexican descent.
àà Guatemalans are people who were born in Guatemala or born to Guatemalan
parents. This pattern would continue with every Spanish-speaking country
represented.
àà The United States of America in Spanish is “Los Estados Unidos de América,”
also abbreviated with E.E.U.U. Therefore, a United States citizen is known as
“estadounidense.” You would probably be understood if you said you were an
“americano” or “norte americano,” but the terms aren’t entirely accurate. All
the people in North, South and Central America are also Americans. North
America includes the countries of Canada, México and the United States. The
slang terms of güera or gringo or yanqui are sometimes used to refer to U.S.
citizens. These may have negative connotations depending on context.

SPANISH CHATBOOK
àà Hispanics are people from the countries formerly ruled by Spain. The majority
of Hispanics speak the Spanish language. The term Hispanic is used by the
government to describe people from Spanish-speaking countries. Each of
the following lessons will include cultural information about these Hispanic
countries.
àà Hispanic-Americans are U.S. citizens of Hispanic descent. HispanicsAmericans have made significant contributions to the United States history
and culture and continue to influence many lives. In 2007, Hispanics
comprised 15% of the U.S. population. A few influential people include César
Chávez (labor leader), Gloria Estefan (singer), Alex Rodriguez (baseball
player), Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan (Supreme Court Justices), Rita
Moreno (actress), Tito Puente (drummer) and many more.
àà Hispanic Heritage Month: September 15–October 15 is the time to celebrate
Hispanic culture and achievements of Hispanic Americans. México,
Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Chile all
celebrate their independence days on either September 15, 16 or 18. During
Hispanic Heritage Month you could post pictures of your Hispanic employees
or make a display highlighting the contributions of famous Hispanics. Check
for local events celebrating the Hispanic culture. Email the dates and times to
staff members to encourage participation.
àà Hispanics also are known for their slang. You will hear some casual phrases in
many kitchens. You may hear, “Hey, how are ya” = “¿Oye, qué tál?”(O-E-yeh, K
Tall?) or “What’s up?” = “¿Qué pasa?” (K Poss-ah?) You can respond by saying,
“Nothing.” = “Nada.” (Nah-dah.) If you have friends that speak Spanish, you
may have heard a few bad words. Most people seem to be able to learn those
very quickly and remember them on their own, so we will focus on “clean
Spanish” in this book.
