I heard someone use a phrase that meant "What do you do?" but I couldn't catch what it was. What's the normal phrase for this is spanish?

gracias

The formal way of saying this would be:

"¿A qué se dedica?" "Me dedico a los estudios" o "Trabajo como profesor."

Or informal:

"¿A qué te dedicas?"

But I might just say:

¿Qué haces aquí? ¿Estudias o trabajas?"

But careful (¡Ojo!), this could be a little intrusive to ask... smile
