Basic Spanish help?

Hi! (this is not Kitty, it's her friend) Can you please help me with some basic Spanish? Can you please tell me if this is correct and fill in the blank ones? (?) means I don't know / I am not sure. (towards the end, it's less basic)

  • Hi = Hola
  • Good Day = Buenos dias
  • How are you? = ¿Qué tal?
  • I'm good/fine. = Estoy bien
  • My name is = Me llamo / Mi nombre es
  • Where do you live? = ¿Dónde vives?
  • I live in = (Yo) Vivo en
  • Where are you from? = ¿De dónde eres?
  • I am from = Soy de
  • How old are you? = ¿Cuántos años tienes?
  • I am ... years old = Tengo ... años
  • What is your last name? = ¿Cómo te apellidas?
  • My last name is ... = Me apellido ...
  • What's your job/profession? = ¿Cuál es tu profesión?
  • I am a student. = Soy estudiante.
  • What time is it? = ¿Qué hora es?
  • It's five-thirty = Son las cinco y media
  • How was your trip? = ¿Cómo (?) tu viaje? (?)
  • It was great! = (?)
  • It was interesting! = (?)
  • I had fun visiting all the new places = (?)
  • We visited so many exiting places = (?)

Can you think of any more basic things to say?

Thank you!

It was interesting! = (?)

¡Qué interesante!

That may or may not fit into your context, depending on if you're using it as an expression or not...

Great job, but one thing- ff Kitty's friend is a female, she would say encantada, not encantado. - Goyo, Nov 27, 2009
