Common words in Spanish
Hola Amigo!

Hola Amigo!! Looking to learn Spanish but scared and confused about where to start? Don’t worry; we get your excitement, and we are so glad to tell you that you’ve come to the right place! Knowing a language other than our own country is fascinating and exciting! This blog will cover some of the most common words in Spanish that you hear people speak on a daily basis! 

10 Common Spanish Words

Learning a new language is not a piece of cake. Binge-watching series that may have Spanish relevance, like a renowned series called Money Heist, attracts the audience to learn that language. However, using those few common Spanish words has also built up a craze where almost everyone speaks that handful of common words in Spanish on a daily basis. Today, we will take a look at those ten common Spanish words!

1. Amor 

Meaning: Love

Pronunciation: Aa-mor

You must have commonly heard people say Mi Amor or the famous song that hopped on the trend: “Where should I put my shoes mi amor mi amor!” The word signifies a person’s love towards another individual. It is a way of showing the other person that you deeply care about them.

2. Felicidad

Meaning: Happiness 

Pronunciation: Feh-li-ci-daad

Most of us have grown up singing Christmas carols, and Feliz Navidad is one of them. But you wondered what it meant? Feliz Navidad means Merry Christmas; this song was sung to wish and hope that everyone spends a happy Christmas. Sounding similar to Feliz Navidad, Felicidad means happiness.

3. Gato

Meaning: Cat

Pronunciation: Ga-toh

An entire house is pet-proofed for them, but all they love is living in a box! Sounds perfect for cats or, let’s say, Gato in Spanish! Gato is one of the common Spanish words, and if you’re looking to go on a short trip with your fur-friend, check out our blog on short stay visa guide for Spain!

4. Perro

Meaning: Dog

Pronunciation: Pe-rr-o

How can we not talk about dogs as they are one of the most common and loved pets in the world? In Spanish, Perro refers to dogs and is also one of the most common words in Spain. A perfect word for our paw-fact friends!

5. Sonreír

Meaning: Smile 

Pronunciation: Son-rye-ir

A basic way to analyse a person’s mood is by just taking a glance at their face. A bright smile defines the positivity in their day. Or if we say kickstart your day with a simple sonreir and be the sunshine of your own life!

6. Gracias

Meaning: Thankyou

Pronunciation: Gra-ci-as 

Emoting or expressing your gratitude towards someone or something just varies from language to language, but the emotion is still the same. Saying gracias basically means thank you. Being one of the most common words in Spanish, many of us say it to people we are grateful to and thank them for any gesture they have done for us or towards us!

7. Amigo

Meaning: Friend

Pronunciation: A-me-go

We come across a lot of people saying Hola mes amigos, meaning hello, my friends! Amigo is not just one of the most common words in Spanish but is also seen as a way of calling out your dear ones, your best friends!

8. Por supuesto 

Meaning: Of Course

Pronunciation: Porsu-po-es-to

Would you like a life-long subscription to free travel and free food anytime and anywhere? POR SUPUESTO!!!!!!!! Por supuesto means nothing but, of course! Por supuesto is one of the most common words in Spanish used to say, of course, when someone strongly agrees to something.

9. Casa

Meaning: House

Pronunciation: Casa

Mi Casa es su Casa, meaning my house is your house, is a very common phrase used worldwide. Casa, meaning house, is another most used Spanish word and was evidently used in the famous Netflix show Money Heist!

10. Por Favor

Meaning: Please

Pronunciation: Por-faa-wore

Por favor is one of the most common words in Spanish that means, please. People generally use this word at the beginning or end of the sentence to request something. For example Por favor, ¿ puedes traerme un vaso de agua? Meaning, please, can you get me a glass of water?

11. Hola

Meaning: Hello

Pronunciation: o-la

Hola is not just another common Spanish word but also one of the most common ways to say hello or strike up a conversation with a friend. You must have heard or seen a majority of people say Hola amigos, meaning hello, friends!

12. Adios

Meaning: Bye

Pronunciation: a-di-o-s

Since hola is used while commencing a conversation, adios is used while parting away! Adios is one of the most common words in Spanish and is majorly used casually in famous movies and series.

Some Spanish words may be common but none of these accommodations are!
