Hi Aubrey. Welcome to the forum 
There is a video lesson called Greetings and Introductions. Maybe that will help?
Hi Aubrey, when you are now starting the Spanish language you will learn greetings and salutations. For example "Bienvenido" means welcome and it agrees with the gender of the person so if you are referring to a group of women you would say for example "Bienvenidas a Caracas!" which means welcome to Caracas other expressions commonly used are
Hola-Hi ¡Qué alegría!-How delightful! Mucho gusto-It's a pleasure or nice to meet you ¡Qué bien!-How great ¡Chévere!-Great! or cool! ¡Estupendo!-Wonderful! ¿Cómo te llamas?-What is your name? Me llamo...-My name is... Este es mi amigo....-This is my friend.... ¿Qué tal?-How are things? ¿Cómo estas?-How are you? Estoy feliz-I am happy Estoy triste-I am sad Estoy regular-I am ok ¿Cuál es tu nacionalidad?-What is your nationality ¿De dónde eres?-Where are you from? Soy de Guatemala-I am from Guatemala These are basically used in conversation
