I have two remaining...or something like that.

How would you say that without saying: me quedan, me faltan.....

resante???

The verb "sobrar", to have left over, be left over, may also work.

Me sobran dos...

Are you asking how to say that in Spanish? or in English?

I've always thought you were fluent in Spanish, that's why I'm confused.

He is, but I believe he's asking for an alternative -- kind of a "thesaurus like" question?? - territurtle, Nov 10, 2011

You could use restar.

intransitive verb

  1. to be left (faltar)
  • sólo restan tres días -> only three days are left
  • sólo me resta agradecerles su ayuda -> all that remains is for me to thank you for your help

I would say (and have often heard) "Me quedan dos."
