  • Here's Your Prescription: How To Go to the Pharmacy in Spanish 17.10.2026 2min
    🎧 Want the words ready before you ever need them? The Spanish Emergency Kit is what I put together for exactly that: https://readytospeakspanish.com/  Ep160 Here's Your Prescription: How To Go to the Pharmacy in Spanish Stuck in Your Head: Songs to Learn Spanish You made it through the call, the front desk, the doctor. And then they hand you a piece of paper and send you somewhere else. The pharmacy. One more conversation. So this last song in the medical theme is a little Andean walk, charango and flutes, all the way to the counter. And it ends with the line this whole series has been building to: ya tengo las palabras. Now I have the words. Intro Before you travel or move to a Spanish-speaking country, get the Spanish Emergency Kit. It's a course you buy and hope you never have to use. Gather your medical history and learn to ask for help in Spanish, without fluent Spanish. Grab the link in the description of this song or go to ReadyToSpeakSpanish.com. Verse 1 The doctor says, here's your prescription Aquí tiene su receta — Here's your prescription Take this every eight hours Tome esto cada ocho horas — Take this every eight hours Now go to the pharmacy Vaya a la farmacia — Go to the pharmacy And there they'll ask, do you have the prescription? ¿Tiene la receta? — Do you have the prescription? Chorus Aquí está mi receta — Here's my prescription Aquí está mi receta — Here's my prescription Voy a la farmacia, voy a la farmacia — I'm going to the pharmacy, I'm going to the pharmacy Cada ocho horas — Every eight hours Cada ocho horas — Every eight hours Aquí está mi receta — Here's my prescription Verse 2 At the counter, here's my prescription Aquí está mi receta — Here's my prescription I need this medicine Necesito este medicamento — I need this medicine How many hours apart? ¿Cada cuántas horas? — How many hours apart? With food? ¿Con comida? — With food? Chorus Aquí está mi receta — Here's my prescription Aquí está mi receta — Here's my prescription Voy a la farmacia, voy a la farmacia — I'm going to the pharmacy, I'm going to the pharmacy Cada ocho horas — Every eight hours Cada ocho horas — Every eight hours Aquí está mi receta — Here's my prescription Bridge ¿Tiene la receta? Sí, aquí está — Do you have the prescription? Yes, here it is ¿Cada cuántas horas? Cada ocho horas — How many hours apart? Every eight hours ¿Con comida? Sí, con comida — With food? Yes, with food Gracias, gracias, ya tengo las palabras — Thank you, thank you, now I have the words Chorus Aquí está mi receta — Here's my prescription Aquí está mi receta — Here's my prescription Voy a la farmacia, voy a la farmacia — I'm going to the pharmacy, I'm going to the pharmacy Cada ocho horas — Every eight hours Cada ocho horas — Every eight hours Aquí está mi receta — Here's my prescription Phrases Spanish / English Aquí tiene su receta / Here's your prescription (what you'll hear) Tome esto cada ocho horas / Take this every eight hours (what you'll hear) Vaya a la farmacia / Go to the pharmacy (what you'll hear) ¿Tiene la receta? / Do you have the prescription? (what you'll hear) Aquí está mi receta / Here's my prescription Voy a la farmacia / I'm going to the pharmacy Necesito este medicamento / I need this medicine ¿Cada cuántas horas? / How many hours apart? ¿Con comida? / With food? Ya tengo las palabras / Now I have the words Why This Matters "Cada" means "every," and it's the word that tells you how to take your medicine. Cada ocho horas, cada día, cada mañana. If you only catch one word from the pharmacist, make it that one, and whatever comes right after it. Usage Tip Always ask "¿Cada cuántas horas?" and "¿Con comida?" even if you think you understood. Then ask them to write it down: "¿Puede escribirlo?" from Ep154. In Spain, prescriptions are often electronic, so the pharmacy may just ask for your health card instead of paper. "Aquí tiene" works either way. That's the whole journey, from the first call for help to the pharmacy counter. Put all ten in a playlist and let them run in the background.

  • Do You Have Insurance? How To Book a Doctor's Appointment in Spanish 17.10.2026 2min
    🎧 Want the words ready before you ever need them? The Spanish Emergency Kit is what I put together for exactly that: https://readytospeakspanish.com/  Ep159 Do You Have Insurance? How To Book a Doctor's Appointment in Spanish Stuck in Your Head: Songs to Learn Spanish Calling to book an appointment scared me more than walking in. On the phone you can't point, you can't show your card, you can't read their face. And the very first question is almost always the same: ¿Tiene seguro? So this one's a reggaeton, with that question on loop until your answer comes out before you even think about it. Intro Before you travel or move to a Spanish-speaking country, get the Spanish Emergency Kit. It's a course you buy and hope you never have to use. Gather your medical history and learn to ask for help in Spanish, without fluent Spanish. Grab the link in the description of this song or go to ReadyToSpeakSpanish.com. Verse 1 When they pick up, they'll ask how can I help you? ¿En qué le puedo ayudar? — How can I help you? Do you have insurance? ¿Tiene seguro? — Do you have insurance? With which company? ¿Con qué compañía? — With which company? Does Monday work for you? ¿Le va bien el lunes? — Does Monday work for you? Chorus ¿Tiene seguro? Sí, tengo seguro — Do you have insurance? Yes, I have insurance ¿Tiene seguro? Sí, tengo seguro — Do you have insurance? Yes, I have insurance Quiero una cita, quiero una cita — I want an appointment, I want an appointment Quiero una cita, por favor — I want an appointment, please ¿Tiene seguro? Sí, tengo seguro — Do you have insurance? Yes, I have insurance Quiero una cita, por favor — I want an appointment, please Verse 2 Say I want an appointment Quiero una cita — I want an appointment I need to see a doctor Necesito ver a un médico — I need to see a doctor Yes, I have private insurance Sí, tengo seguro privado — Yes, I have private insurance Monday works for me Sí, el lunes me va bien — Yes, Monday works for me Chorus ¿Tiene seguro? Sí, tengo seguro — Do you have insurance? Yes, I have insurance ¿Tiene seguro? Sí, tengo seguro — Do you have insurance? Yes, I have insurance Quiero una cita, quiero una cita — I want an appointment, I want an appointment Quiero una cita, por favor — I want an appointment, please ¿Tiene seguro? Sí, tengo seguro — Do you have insurance? Yes, I have insurance Quiero una cita, por favor — I want an appointment, please Bridge ¿Tiene seguro? Sí, tengo seguro — Do you have insurance? Yes, I have insurance ¿Tiene seguro? No, no tengo seguro — Do you have insurance? No, I don't have insurance ¿Le va bien el lunes? Sí, me va bien — Does Monday work for you? Yes, it works for me ¿A qué hora? ¿A qué hora? — At what time? At what time? Chorus ¿Tiene seguro? Sí, tengo seguro — Do you have insurance? Yes, I have insurance ¿Tiene seguro? Sí, tengo seguro — Do you have insurance? Yes, I have insurance Quiero una cita, quiero una cita — I want an appointment, I want an appointment Quiero una cita, por favor — I want an appointment, please ¿Tiene seguro? Sí, tengo seguro — Do you have insurance? Yes, I have insurance Quiero una cita, por favor — I want an appointment, please Phrases Spanish / English ¿En qué le puedo ayudar? / How can I help you? (what you'll hear) ¿Tiene seguro? / Do you have insurance? (what you'll hear) ¿Con qué compañía? / With which company? (what you'll hear) ¿Le va bien el lunes? / Does Monday work for you? (what you'll hear) Quiero una cita / I want an appointment Necesito ver a un médico / I need to see a doctor Sí, tengo seguro / Yes, I have insurance Sí, tengo seguro privado / Yes, I have private insurance No, no tengo seguro / No, I don't have insurance Sí, el lunes me va bien / Yes, Monday works for me ¿A qué hora? / At what time? Why This Matters Two verbs carry this whole call. "Quiero" (I want) gets you the appointment: quiero una cita. "Tengo" (I have) answers the insurance question: tengo seguro, or no tengo seguro. When they ask "¿Con qué compañía?", just say the name of your insurance company. No sentence needed. Usage Tip In Spain, people often answer the phone with "¿Dígame?" or just "¿Sí?" Don't let it throw you. Jump straight in with "Hola, quiero una cita, por favor." And if they talk too fast, you already have the lifeline: "Más despacio, por favor.

  • Medical Series, Part 8: How To Check In at the Doctor in Spanish 17.10.2026 2min
    🎧 Want the words ready before you ever need them? The Spanish Emergency Kit is what I put together for exactly that: https://readytospeakspanish.com/  Ep158 Medical Series, Part 8: How To Check In at the Doctor in Spanish Stuck in Your Head: Songs to Learn Spanish The front desk is where I used to freeze the most. Not because the questions were hard, but because they came one after another, fast. Name. Appointment. Insurance. Card. So this one's a salsa. Verse one is everything they'll ask you. Verse two is how you answer. And the chorus is the one phrase that gets you through all of it: aquí tiene. Intro Before you travel or move to a Spanish-speaking country, get the Spanish Emergency Kit. It's a course you buy and hope you never have to use. Gather your medical history and learn to ask for help in Spanish, without fluent Spanish. Grab the link in the description of this song or go to ReadyToSpeakSpanish.com. Verse 1 At the desk they'll ask your name ¿Cómo se llama? — What's your name? Do you have an appointment? ¿Tiene cita? — Do you have an appointment? Do you have insurance? ¿Tiene seguro? — Do you have insurance? Can you give me your card? ¿Me da su tarjeta? — Can you give me your card? Chorus Aquí tiene, aquí tiene — Here you go, here you go Tengo cita, tengo seguro — I have an appointment, I have insurance Aquí tiene, aquí tiene — Here you go, here you go Aquí está mi lista — Here's my list Aquí tiene, aquí tiene — Here you go, here you go Aquí tiene, gracias — Here you go, thank you Verse 2 Tell them, my name is Alex Me llamo Alex — My name is Alex Yes, I have an appointment Sí, tengo cita — Yes, I have an appointment Yes, I have insurance Sí, tengo seguro — Yes, I have insurance Hand it over, here you go Aquí tiene — Here you go Chorus Aquí tiene, aquí tiene — Here you go, here you go Tengo cita, tengo seguro — I have an appointment, I have insurance Aquí tiene, aquí tiene — Here you go, here you go Aquí está mi lista — Here's my list Aquí tiene, aquí tiene — Here you go, here you go Aquí tiene, gracias — Here you go, thank you Bridge ¿Tiene alguna alergia? No tengo alergias — Do you have any allergies? I don't have allergies ¿Toma algún medicamento? Aquí está mi lista — Do you take any medication? Here's my list ¿Tiene cita? No, no tengo cita — Do you have an appointment? No, I don't have an appointment Aquí tiene, aquí tiene — Here you go, here you go Chorus Aquí tiene, aquí tiene — Here you go, here you go Tengo cita, tengo seguro — I have an appointment, I have insurance Aquí tiene, aquí tiene — Here you go, here you go Aquí está mi lista — Here's my list Aquí tiene, aquí tiene — Here you go, here you go Aquí tiene, gracias — Here you go, thank you Phrases Spanish / English ¿Cómo se llama? / What's your name? (what you'll hear) ¿Tiene cita? / Do you have an appointment? (what you'll hear) ¿Tiene seguro? / Do you have insurance? (what you'll hear) ¿Me da su tarjeta? / Can you give me your card? (what you'll hear) ¿Tiene alguna alergia? / Do you have any allergies? (what you'll hear) ¿Toma algún medicamento? / Do you take any medication? (what you'll hear) Me llamo… / My name is… Sí, tengo cita / Yes, I have an appointment No, no tengo cita / No, I don't have an appointment Sí, tengo seguro / Yes, I have insurance No tengo alergias / I don't have allergies Aquí está mi lista / Here's my list Aquí tiene / Here you go Why This Matters Almost every front desk question starts with "¿Tiene…?" (do you have…?). And almost every answer starts with "tengo" or "no tengo." Learn that pair and you can answer most of the check-in without thinking. Then "aquí tiene" covers the rest: card, passport, list, anything you hand over. Usage Tip Swap in your own name when you sing along. If you do have allergies, the line you want is "Soy alérgico a…" (or "alérgica" if you're a woman), then show the name written down. And keep your medication list on your phone or a card. "Aquí está mi lista" is a lot easier than pronouncing every medicine.

  • Medical Series, Part 7: How To Say "Since When" in Spanish 17.10.2026 3min
    🎧 Want the words ready before you ever need them? The Spanish Emergency Kit is what I put together for exactly that: https://readytospeakspanish.com/  Ep157 Medical Series, Part 7: How To Say "Since When" in Spanish Stuck in Your Head: Songs to Learn Spanish After "where" and "what kind," the next question is always "since when?" And timing is one of those things you think you'll just know how to say, until you're standing there doing math in two languages. So this one is a cumbia. That steady scraping rhythm ticks like a clock under every line. Desde hace. Desde ayer. Va y viene. Intro Before you travel or move to a Spanish-speaking country, get the Spanish Emergency Kit. It's a course you buy and hope you never have to use. Gather your medical history and learn to ask for help in Spanish, without fluent Spanish. Grab the link in the description of this song or go to ReadyToSpeakSpanish.com. Verse 1 They might ask you, since when? ¿Desde cuándo? — Since when? For ten minutes Desde hace diez minutos — For ten minutes For two hours Desde hace dos horas — For two hours Since yesterday Desde ayer — Since yesterday Chorus Desde hace, desde hace — For, for Desde hace dos horas — For two hours Desde ayer, desde ayer — Since yesterday, since yesterday Va y viene, va y viene — It comes and goes, it comes and goes Está empeorando — It's getting worse Desde ayer, desde ayer — Since yesterday, since yesterday Verse 2 They might ask, does it hurt all the time? ¿Le duele todo el tiempo? — Does it hurt all the time? Yes, it's constant Sí, es constante — Yes, it's constant Or it comes and goes Va y viene — It comes and goes And it's getting worse Está empeorando — It's getting worse Chorus Desde hace, desde hace — For, for Desde hace dos horas — For two hours Desde ayer, desde ayer — Since yesterday, since yesterday Va y viene, va y viene — It comes and goes, it comes and goes Está empeorando — It's getting worse Desde ayer, desde ayer — Since yesterday, since yesterday Bridge ¿Desde cuándo? Desde ayer — Since when? Since yesterday ¿Desde cuándo? Desde hace dos horas — Since when? For two hours ¿Todo el tiempo? Va y viene — All the time? It comes and goes Está empeorando, está empeorando — It's getting worse, it's getting worse Chorus Desde hace, desde hace — For, for Desde hace dos horas — For two hours Desde ayer, desde ayer — Since yesterday, since yesterday Va y viene, va y viene — It comes and goes, it comes and goes Está empeorando — It's getting worse Desde ayer, desde ayer — Since yesterday, since yesterday Phrases Spanish / English ¿Desde cuándo? / Since when? (what you'll hear) ¿Le duele todo el tiempo? / Does it hurt all the time? (what you'll hear) Desde hace diez minutos / For ten minutes Desde hace dos horas / For two hours Desde ayer / Since yesterday Sí, es constante / Yes, it's constant Va y viene / It comes and goes Está empeorando / It's getting worse Why This Matters Two little starters cover almost every timing answer. "Desde hace" plus an amount of time (diez minutos, dos horas, tres días). "Desde" plus a moment (ayer, esta mañana, el lunes). That's it. And "va y viene" is one of the most useful three words you'll ever learn at a doctor's office. Usage Tip If you don't know exactly when it started, "No sé" is an honest answer. Don't guess a time just to fill the space. If you wrote down when it started, show them. A note on your phone works better than mental math under pressure.

    🎧 Want the words ready before you ever need them? The Spanish Emergency Kit is what I put together for exactly that: https://readytospeakspanish.com/  Ep156 Medical Series, Part 6: How To Describe Pain in Spanish Stuck in Your Head: Songs to Learn Spanish "It hurts" gets you in the door. But the next question is always "what kind of pain?" And I realized I had no answer, not even in my head. So this one's a tango. Dramatic, a little over the top, because pain words deserve some theater. Punzante. Intenso. Ardor. Once they're sung like this, they don't leave. Intro Before you travel or move to a Spanish-speaking country, get the Spanish Emergency Kit. It's a course you buy and hope you never have to use. Gather your medical history and learn to ask for help in Spanish, without fluent Spanish. Grab the link in the description of this song. Verse 1 They might ask, what's the pain like? ¿Cómo es el dolor? — What's the pain like? Sharp and stabbing Es un dolor punzante — It's a stabbing pain Strong and severe Es un dolor intenso — It's a severe pain And if it's burning Tengo ardor — I have burning Chorus Es punzante, es punzante — It's stabbing, it's stabbing Es un dolor intenso — It's a severe pain Tengo ardor, tengo ardor — I have burning, I have burning Siento presión aquí — I feel pressure here Siento presión aquí — I feel pressure here Es un dolor intenso — It's a severe pain Verse 2 If it feels like pressure Siento presión aquí — I feel pressure here They might ask, from one to ten Del uno al diez, ¿cuánto le duele? — From one to ten, how much does it hurt?

(what you'll hear) Es un dolor punzante / It's a stabbing pain Es un dolor intenso / It's a severe pain Tengo ardor / I have burning Siento presión aquí / I feel pressure here Un ocho / An eight Un diez / A ten Why This Matters You only need three starters to describe almost any pain. "Es un dolor…" (it's a … pain), "Tengo…" (I have…), and "Siento…" (I feel…). Pick the one that fits and add a single word. Punzante, intenso, ardor, presión. Usage Tip The one-to-ten question comes up a lot, and you don't need a sentence to answer it. Just say the number: "Un ocho." If you blank on numbers, hold up your fingers. That counts too.

    🎧 Want the words ready before you ever need them? The Spanish Emergency Kit is what I put together for exactly that: https://readytospeakspanish.com/  Ep155 Medical Series, Part 5: How To Say "It Hurts" in Spanish Stuck in Your Head: Songs to Learn Spanish Bachata is basically the music of heartache, so of course "me duele" had to be a bachata. Funny thing is, in love songs "me duele" means my heart hurts. At the doctor, it means my back hurts. Same two words. Once you hear it in one place, you'll start hearing it everywhere. Verse 1 When they ask where does it hurt ¿Dónde le duele? — Where does it hurt? Point and say, it hurts here Me duele aquí — It hurts here When your head is pounding Me duele la cabeza — My head hurts When your back won't let you move Me duele la espalda — My back hurts Chorus Me duele, me duele — It hurts, it hurts Me duele aquí — It hurts here Me duele la cabeza — My head hurts Me duele la espalda — My back hurts Me duele el pecho — My chest hurts Me duele, me duele aquí — It hurts, it hurts here Verse 2 When your chest feels wrong Me duele el pecho — My chest hurts When your stomach hurts Me duele el estómago — My stomach hurts They might ask, does it hurt here? ¿Le duele aquí? — Does it hurt here? Yes, it hurts a lot Sí, me duele mucho — Yes, it hurts a lot Chorus Me duele, me duele — It hurts, it hurts Me duele aquí — It hurts here Me duele la cabeza — My head hurts Me duele la espalda — My back hurts Me duele el pecho — My chest hurts Me duele, me duele aquí — It hurts, it hurts here Bridge ¿Dónde le duele? Aquí, aquí — Where does it hurt? Here, here ¿Le duele aquí? Sí, mucho — Does it hurt here? Yes, a lot ¿Le duele aquí? No, aquí no — Does it hurt here? No, not here Me duele aquí, me duele aquí — It hurts here, it hurts here Chorus Me duele, me duele — It hurts, it hurts Me duele aquí — It hurts here Me duele la cabeza — My head hurts Me duele la espalda — My back hurts Me duele el pecho — My chest hurts Me duele, me duele aquí — It hurts, it hurts here Phrases Spanish / English ¿Dónde le duele? / Where does it hurt? (what you'll hear) ¿Le duele aquí? / Does it hurt here? (what you'll hear) Me duele aquí / It hurts here Me duele la cabeza / My head hurts Me duele la espalda / My back hurts Me duele el pecho / My chest hurts Me duele el estómago / My stomach hurts Sí, me duele mucho / Yes, it hurts a lot No, aquí no / No, not here Why This Matters "Me duele" plus a body part is the whole pattern. You don't say "my head," you say "the head": me duele la cabeza. Swap the body part and you've got a new sentence. And if you don't know the word? "Me duele aquí" and point. That works for every part of your body. Usage Tip When a doctor presses and asks "¿Le duele aquí?", you only need three answers: "Sí," "Sí, mucho," or "No, aquí no." That's how they find the spot. You don't need to explain, just answer each press.

    🎧 Want the words ready before you ever need them? The Spanish Emergency Kit is what I put together for exactly that: https://readytospeakspanish.com/  Ep154 Medical Series, Part 4: How To Say "Slower, Please" in Spanish Stuck in Your Head: Songs to Learn Spanish Here's what actually happens: you say your phrase perfectly, and then they answer. Fast. And suddenly you're lost. That's not you failing. That's just the next step. So this song is a slow, dreamy bolero, because the whole point is slowing things down. Más despacio. No entiendo. ¿Puede repetir? Three little lifelines. Verse 1 When they're talking way too fast Más despacio, por favor — Slower, please When the words just fly right by No entiendo — I don't understand Ask them, can you say it again? ¿Puede repetir? — Can you repeat? One more time, please Otra vez, por favor — Again, please Chorus Más despacio, más despacio — Slower, slower Más despacio, por favor — Slower, please No entiendo, no entiendo — I don't understand, I don't understand ¿Puede repetir? — Can you repeat? ¿Puede repetir? — Can you repeat? Más despacio, por favor — Slower, please Verse 2 If they ask, do you understand? ¿Entiende? — Do you understand? Can you write it down? ¿Puede escribirlo? — Can you write it down? If they tell you, wait a moment Espere un momento — Wait a moment Just say yes, thank you Sí, gracias — Yes, thank you Chorus Más despacio, más despacio — Slower, slower Más despacio, por favor — Slower, please No entiendo, no entiendo — I don't understand, I don't understand ¿Puede repetir? — Can you repeat? ¿Puede repetir? — Can you repeat? Más despacio, por favor — Slower, please Bridge ¿Entiende? No entiendo — Do you understand? I don't understand ¿Entiende? Un poco — Do you understand? A little ¿Puede repetir? Otra vez — Can you repeat? Again Más despacio, más despacio, por favor — Slower, slower, please Chorus Más despacio, más despacio — Slower, slower Más despacio, por favor — Slower, please No entiendo, no entiendo — I don't understand, I don't understand ¿Puede repetir? — Can you repeat? ¿Puede repetir? — Can you repeat? Más despacio, por favor — Slower, please Phrases Spanish / English ¿Entiende? / Do you understand? (what you'll hear) Espere un momento / Wait a moment (what you'll hear) Más despacio, por favor / Slower, please No entiendo / I don't understand ¿Puede repetir? / Can you repeat? Otra vez, por favor / Again, please ¿Puede escribirlo? / Can you write it down? Sí, gracias / Yes, thank you Why This Matters "¿Puede…?" means "Can you…?" It's your polite request starter. Put one word after it and you've asked for exactly what you need: ¿Puede repetir? ¿Puede escribirlo? Same opening, every time. Usage Tip "¿Puede escribirlo?" is a secret weapon. Numbers, times, addresses, and medicine names are much easier to read than to catch out loud. Hand them your phone or a pen and let them write it. If you hear "Espere un momento," they're not ignoring you. They're asking you to hold on.

    🎧 Want the words ready before you ever need them? The Spanish Emergency Kit is what I put together for exactly that: https://readytospeakspanish.com/ Ep153 Medical Series, Part 3: How To Ask for English in Spanish Stuck in Your Head: Songs to Learn Spanish For a long time I thought asking for English meant I'd failed. Like I was supposed to push through in Spanish no matter what. But in an emergency, the goal isn't to prove anything. It's to be understood. Asking for someone who speaks English is one of the smartest things you can say. So this one gets the full mariachi treatment, trumpets and all, because it deserves to be sung proudly.

    🎧 Want the words ready before you ever need them? The Spanish Emergency Kit is what I put together for exactly that: readytospeakspanish.com  How To Say Where You Are in Spanish (Medical Series, Part 2) Stuck in Your Head: Songs to Learn Spanish Asking for help is step one. Step two is telling someone where you are, and that's the part I realized I'd never practiced. Not the full address out loud, just the little starter that gets you there. Estoy en. And for the rest? Show your phone. That counts too. Verse 1 When they ask you where you are ¿Dónde está? — Where are you? I'm at the hotel Estoy en el hotel — I'm at the hotel I'm at home Estoy en casa — I'm at home I'm out on the street Estoy en la calle — I'm on the street Chorus Estoy en, estoy en — I'm at, I'm at Estoy en el hotel — I'm at the hotel Estoy en casa — I'm at home Aquí está la dirección — Here's the address Aquí está la dirección — Here's the address Estoy aquí, estoy aquí — I'm here, I'm here Verse 2 They might ask, what's the address? ¿Cuál es la dirección? — What's the address? Show your phone, here it is Aquí está la dirección — Here's the address And if you don't know where you are No sé dónde estoy — I don't know where I am Say I'm here, I need help Estoy aquí, necesito ayuda — I'm here, I need help Chorus Estoy en, estoy en — I'm at, I'm at Estoy en el hotel — I'm at the hotel Estoy en casa — I'm at home Aquí está la dirección — Here's the address Aquí está la dirección — Here's the address Estoy aquí, estoy aquí — I'm here, I'm here Bridge ¿Dónde está? Estoy en casa — Where are you? I'm at home ¿Dónde está? Estoy en el hotel — Where are you? I'm at the hotel ¿Cuál es la dirección? Aquí está — What's the address? Here it is ¿Cuál es la dirección? Aquí está, aquí está — What's the address? Here it is, here it is Chorus Estoy en, estoy en — I'm at, I'm at Estoy en el hotel — I'm at the hotel Estoy en casa — I'm at home Aquí está la dirección — Here's the address Aquí está la dirección — Here's the address Estoy aquí, estoy aquí — I'm here, I'm here Phrases Spanish / English ¿Dónde está? / Where are you? (what you'll hear) ¿Cuál es la dirección? / What's the address? (what you'll hear) Estoy en el hotel / I'm at the hotel Estoy en casa / I'm at home Estoy en la calle / I'm on the street Aquí está la dirección / Here's the address No sé dónde estoy / I don't know where I am Estoy aquí / I'm here Why This Matters "Estoy en" is your whole location kit in two words. Add any place after it: el hotel, casa, la calle, la playa. You don't have to pronounce a long street name under pressure. Say "Estoy en," then point to the address on your phone or card. Usage Tip Save your full address somewhere you can open without internet, including floor and door. In Spain, addresses often include them (something like 3º 2ª), and that's the detail people forget. If you're lost, "No sé dónde estoy" is an honest answer and a useful one.

    🎧 Want the words ready before you ever need them? The Spanish Emergency Kit is what I put together for exactly that: https://readytospeakspanish.com  How To Say "I Need Help" in Spanish (Medical Series, Part 1) Stuck in Your Head: Songs to Learn Spanish When I moved to Spain, I could practice ordering a coffee all day long. What I didn't have was the words for when something goes wrong. And that's the moment when your brain is least likely to hand you a sentence. So this series is about the bare minimum: what to say, and what you'll probably hear. Not fluent. Just ready. Verse 1 When something's wrong and you need help Necesito ayuda — I need help When you need a doctor fast Necesito un médico — I need a doctor When you need an ambulance Necesito una ambulancia — I need an ambulance Ask them, can you help me? ¿Me puede ayudar? — Can you help me? Chorus Tengo las palabras, tengo las palabras — I have the words, I have the words Necesito ayuda, ¿me puede ayudar? — I need help, can you help me? No hablo mucho español — I don't speak much Spanish Más despacio, por favor — Slower, please Tengo las palabras listas — I have the words ready Tengo las palabras listas — I have the words ready Verse 2 They might ask you, what's wrong? ¿Qué le pasa? — What's wrong? Keep it simple, I need a doctor Necesito un médico — I need a doctor They might ask you, where are you? ¿Dónde está? — Where are you? Just say, I'm here, I need help Estoy aquí, necesito ayuda — I'm here, I need help Bridge ¿Qué le pasa? Necesito ayuda — What's wrong? I need help ¿Dónde está? Estoy aquí — Where are you? I'm here ¿Qué le pasa? Necesito un médico — What's wrong? I need a doctor ¿Dónde está? Estoy aquí, estoy aquí — Where are you? I'm here, I'm here Phrases Spanish / English Necesito ayuda / I need help Necesito un médico / I need a doctor Necesito una ambulancia / I need an ambulance ¿Me puede ayudar? / Can you help me? No hablo mucho español / I don't speak much Spanish Más despacio, por favor / Slower, please ¿Qué le pasa? / What's wrong? (what you'll hear) ¿Dónde está? / Where are you? (what you'll hear) Estoy aquí / I'm here Why This Matters "Necesito" is one word that does a lot of work. Put anything after it and you've asked for what you need: ayuda, un médico, una ambulancia. You don't need to build a sentence under pressure. You just need the first word and the thing. Usage Tip Listen for two questions: ¿Qué le pasa? and ¿Dónde está? Those are often the first things you'll hear. If you catch even one of them, you already know your answer. In Spain and across the EU, the emergency number is 112.

    🎧 Before you travel or move to a Spanish-speaking country, get the Spanish Emergency Kit, the course you hope you never have to use: https://readytospeakspanish.com/    How To Say What You're Doing Right Now in Spanish For a long time, someone could ask me what I was doing and my brain would just stop. I knew the words. I couldn't put them together on the spot. Estoy... and then nothing. This song gives you one little starter, estoy, and one ending that never changes, español. You just swap the middle. Then it walks through everyone in order: me, you, her, us, them. Sing it enough and "what are you doing?" stops being scary. Lyrics Intro I am is estoy Right now is ahora Estoy, ahora — I am, right now Estoy, ahora — I am, right now Verse 1 Yo estoy aprendiendo español ahora — I am learning Spanish right now Chorus Estoy hablando español — I am speaking Spanish Estoy aprendiendo español — I am learning Spanish Estoy escuchando español — I am listening to Spanish Estoy entendiendo español — I am understanding Spanish Estoy practicando español — I am practicing Spanish Estoy escribiendo español — I am writing Spanish Verse 2 Tú estás aprendiendo español ahora — You are learning Spanish right now Chorus Estás hablando español — You are speaking Spanish Estás aprendiendo español — You are learning Spanish Estás escuchando español — You are listening to Spanish Estás entendiendo español — You are understanding Spanish Estás practicando español — You are practicing Spanish Estás escribiendo español — You are writing Spanish Verse 3 Ella está aprendiendo español ahora — She is learning Spanish right now Chorus Está hablando español — She is speaking Spanish Está aprendiendo español — She is learning Spanish Está escuchando español — She is listening to Spanish Está entendiendo español — She is understanding Spanish Está practicando español — She is practicing Spanish Está escribiendo español — She is writing Spanish Verse 4 Nosotros estamos aprendiendo español ahora — We are learning Spanish right now Chorus Estamos hablando español — We are speaking Spanish Estamos aprendiendo español — We are learning Spanish Estamos escuchando español — We are listening to Spanish Estamos entendiendo español — We are understanding Spanish Estamos practicando español — We are practicing Spanish Estamos escribiendo español — We are writing Spanish Verse 5 Ellos están aprendiendo español ahora — They are learning Spanish right now Chorus Están hablando español — They are speaking Spanish Están aprendiendo español — They are learning Spanish Están escuchando español — They are listening to Spanish Están entendiendo español — They are understanding Spanish Están practicando español — They are practicing Spanish Están escribiendo español — They are writing Spanish Phrases Spanish | English estoy | I am (right now) estás | you are (right now) está | she is (right now) estamos | we are (right now) están | they are (right now) ahora | right now hablando | speaking aprendiendo | learning escuchando | listening entendiendo | understanding practicando | practicing escribiendo | writing Estoy hablando español | I am speaking Spanish Why This Matters You're not learning thirty sentences. You're learning one frame: who is doing it, what they're doing, and what it's about. Estoy is the "I am, right now" starter. Then you add a word that ends in -ando or -iendo, and you've got what's happening this second. In each round of the chorus the starter changes with the person (estoy, estás, está, estamos, están) and the rest stays put. Don't worry about why some endings are -ando and some are -iendo. Hear it, repeat it, and let your ear sort it out. Usage Tip Say it while you're doing it. Playing this episode? "Estoy escuchando español." Reading a menu? "Estoy practicando español." Nobody needs to hear you, and it counts. 🎧 Before you travel or move to a Spanish-speaking country, get the Spanish Emergency Kit, the course you hope you never have to use: https://readytospeakspanish.com/  Stuck in Your Head: Songs to Learn Spanish — created by Mystikole AI

You're learning one frame: what I do, then before or after, then when. Estudio español stays the same. Antes or después flips. The time slides in at the end. Once that's in your head, you can put anything into your day. In the chorus you'll hear "de la cena" and then "del trabajo." Don't stress about it. Hear it, repeat it, and let your ear sort it out. The verses walk through the people in order, so you get me, you, her, us, and them without ever opening a grammar book. Usage Tip Say your real day out loud. "Estudio español antes del trabajo." "Estudio español después de la cena." Change the time to match your life. It takes ten seconds and it counts. 🎧 Before you travel or move to a Spanish-speaking country, get the Spanish Emergency Kit, the course you hope you never have to use: https://readytospeakspanish.com/    Stuck in Your Head: Songs to Learn Spanish — created by Mystikole AI

You're learning one frame: who is going, and where. The verses walk through the people in order, and the chorus lets you swap the place. Once you can move through me, you, her, us, them, you can build a brand new sentence with any person and any place. You'll hear "a la playa" and then "al parque" and "al cine." Don't stress about it. Hear it, repeat it, and let your ear sort it out. And that quick chant, voy, vas, va, vamos, van? That's the whole set in order. Sing it and it sticks. Usage Tip Narrate the people around you. On the street, at a café, on the bus: "Ella va al parque. Ellos van a la playa." Planning something with a friend? Just say "Vamos al cine."  Tired of studying and still not speaking?

This is what it sounds like when you actually use them. When I first got to Spain, I knew the words. I'd practiced them. Then I stood at a loud bar, the waiter looked at me, and I said nothing. So this episode is that exact moment, with no music, just a real conversation at real speed. You hear it, then you play my part out loud, then you hear it once more. How to use this episode Round one: just listen. Round two: the pauses are for you, so say my lines out loud, even if it feels silly. Round three: listen again and notice how much you caught. Setup You're at a bar in Valencia. It's busy. You want a coffee and a water, and then you want to pay. Verse 1 I walk in and say hello Hola, buenos días The bar is loud, I get his attention Perdona Chorus Quiero un café, por favor Una botella de agua, por favor Muchas gracias, muchas gracias Hasta luego, hasta luego Quiero un café, por favor Una botella de agua, por favor Muchas gracias, muchas gracias Hasta luego, hasta luego Verse 2 I want my water still Sin gas, por favor He asks if I want more No, gracias Chorus Quiero un café, por favor Una botella de agua, por favor Muchas gracias, muchas gracias Hasta luego, hasta luego Quiero un café, por favor Una botella de agua, por favor Muchas gracias, muchas gracias Hasta luego, hasta luego Bridge ¿Cuánto cuesta? Pago con tarjeta Aquí tienes Vale, gracias Chorus Quiero un café, por favor Una botella de agua, por favor Muchas gracias, muchas gracias Hasta luego, hasta luego Quiero un café, por favor Una botella de agua, por favor Muchas gracias, muchas gracias Hasta luego, hasta luego Phrases Spanish / English Perdona — Excuse me ¿Qué quieres? — What do you want? Quiero un café, por favor — I want a coffee, please ¿Algo más? — Anything else? ¿Con gas? / Sin gas — Sparkling / Still No, gracias — No, thank you ¿Cuánto cuesta? — How much does it cost? Son tres euros con cincuenta — It's three euros fifty Pago con tarjeta — I'm paying by card Aquí tienes — Here you go Hasta luego — See you later Why This Matters The waiter's lines are just as important as yours. ¿Qué quieres? and ¿Algo más? come at you fast, and if you've never heard them, they sound like a wall. Hear them enough times and they turn into a signal: your turn. You don't have to understand every word, only the ones that mean it's time to speak. Usage tip Don't wait until you've memorized it. Play this on your walk to the bar, and say your lines out loud when the pauses come. The first time you say them for real, they'll feel like something you've already done. 🎧 Before you travel or move to a Spanish-speaking country, get the Spanish Emergency Kit, the course you hope you never have to use: https://readytospeakspanish.com/    Stuck in Your Head: Real Talk — created by Mystikole AI
