If someone can't think of anything to say, we'd say "at a loss for words". Is there a matching phrase in Español for the phrasebook? Gracias
would it be:
en una pérdida para las palabras

You can say: "Me quedé sin palabras", "No sé que decirte"... - 00e46f15, ABR 18, 2010

A polite way to communicate this is "Me faltan las palabras adecuadas". Another possibility is "No encuentro las palabras adecuadas."
I hope this has helped!

thank you, but do you know if it has the same meaning in Spanish as in English? - AKgal, ABR 18, 2010
