Also, I prefer to conjugate estar and say Estoy muy bien, just a matter of preference. - LiuBang10, Apr 7, 2016

Liu,, Heidi is no longer here and she is also fluent in Spanish ;) - FELIZ77, Apr 8, 2016

Allie, are you sure? I realize this thread is old, but I thought it was worth pointing out that the person who originally said "guapa" on this thread is from Spain.

I´m with Grace. Guapa is valid. - rogspax, Dec 19, 2012

Didn't know guapa was Spain spanish only, I just use it. - LiuBang10, Apr 7, 2016

It's also very Mexican. - Daniela2041, Apr 7, 2016

Answer 3

Theres no such thing as guapa, if you want to call yourself pretty use the term: bonita. This means pretty, as guapo means handsome. ¡strong textSí!

Not true.

Guapo(a) is "good looking" for either man or woman

Yes, absolutely true Heidi used to often use it and many other Spanish speaking people use this word :) - FELIZ77, Apr 8, 2016
