With great respect usarenco, Luis who is also native used disculpe yet you corrected me and told me it should be disculpa Please tell me why? And what is wrong with my response that I could not gain any points ? - FELIZ77, Feb 20, 2011

Desculpe, ¿Cómo llego a (o al aeropuerto/al hotel).... .....por favor ?

Disculpe carries with it the meaning ''I'm sorry to trouble you but,...'' so if you are needing to ask someone walking in the street it is more polite than simply saying lo siento

Disculpa... - gone, Feb 18, 2011
Thank you :) i used an online Spanish Verb conjugator as the verb wasn't in my 501 Spanish verbs book I put in what I thought was the imperative for the Ud form (singular) - FELIZ77, Feb 18, 2011
Disculpe is the formal imperative. The verb is disculpar. - Azabache, Jun 11, 2011

The easiest, and yet polite, form:

Disculpe, el metro Insurgentes...?

Disculpe, el Hotel Fiesta Inn...?

Perdón, el Museo del Prado...?

Perdón, el aeropuerto...?

Well here's a simple way to do it,

you can simply say :

perdón señor(a)

and then ask for whatever you want

For ex: if you want to go to the metro station simply say:

Perdón señor, ¿El metro, por favor?

wink
