2. My name is – Me llamo (mee amo)

3. What’s your name? - ¿Cómo te llamas? (como ta jamas)

4. How are you doing? - ¿Cómo estás? (como estas)

5. I am – Yo soy/estoy

6. And you? - ¿ Y tú? (ee too)

7. Basic Emotions

~Contento (happy)

~Consado (tired)

~Infermo (sick)

~Triste(angry)

~Tranquilo (chill)

8. Nice to meet you – Mucho gusto (mooch goosto)

9. Likewise – Igualmente (Eeegwalmenteh)

B~Hola. Me llamo B. ¿y tú?

A~Me llamo A.
