Little wonders

Reacting to what someone says can be difficult in a foreign language, especially when you want to have some variety. Here are some of the most useful phrases you can use to show you’re engaged in the conversation:

• tal cual | used when you think exactly like the person.
• bien ahí | use it when you want to congratulate someone on achieving something.
• ahí va | to show that you understand.
• de una | to say you agree.
• a full | to express that you really like the idea.
• dale | the most common alternative to ok.
• bárbaro | an alternative dale.

Good luck in finding a spot for them in your conversations,

Until soon!
