Frases comunes, for Spanish learners 9, Choose one and post a sentence.
I have been reviewing my "everyday phrases", and thought I would share them with you.
Some of these you may find here in the "phrasebook" some you may not.
These are all taken from everyday speech,not from a book, and are all Spanish of Mexico.
I am not going to suggest that I can define the rules for these, they are what we use here in everyday language. These are the kind of thing you will hear as you move around in the Spanish speaking world ( At least in Mexico)
In my notes these are in no particular order so I just take them as they are in my notebook. This group is very ordinary
