todas las ensaladas

Question

I'm standing there is Subway and the guy asks me if I want any salad on my sandwich. Yes, I want a bit of everything - I know I'm greedy :-p

I'm thinking to myself, how would I answer that in Spanish?

Sí, todas las ensaladas?

However, does this mean, all the salads - as in, I would be asking for all of every salad?

Gracias de antemano

Answer 1

Where I live, people usually ask what veggies you want on your hoagie, not salads. Don't you just love learning the lingo for things in different places?

When I first moved to the little town I'm living in now, I was ordering subs over the phone for delivery from a local shop and was asked if I wanted that "in the garden".

What??? "No... (long pause) I want that in my house." The lady on the phone thought that was just hilarious and explained that "in the garden" meant "with vegetables".

Kinda went off on a tangent, maybe you could say something like un poco de todas? - hollyjollyberry, Dec 9, 2011

I don't understand the question. All the salads? Subway offers a choice of vegetables and salad greens, as well as various sauces, that they can put on sandwiches. But here these would not be referred to as 'salads'. People would just ask, 'What would you like on your sandwich?'

to which I would reply..."a bit of each salad" - billygoat, Dec 9, 2011

I can imagine someone walking into a Subway in Texas and asking for rocket salad on their sandwich :) - lorenzo9, Dec 9, 2011

yes. Athough come to think of it, we do get vegetables too lol, but we just call it all collectively 'salad' - billygoat, Dec 9, 2011

Answer 3

I'm not so sure, thats a good question but, being first, guess ill just put a picture of a salad and call it a day. XD sorry about the randomness.
