Spanish for work?

Question

Hi, I work at a KFC (I'm a teenager so for judge) which stands for Kentucky Fried chicken if you were wondering;however, my problem is that I can speak and understand limited spanish but I need help with a few words. In spanish, how do you say "it comes with" like "the meal comes with chicken, corn, etc", and also, I need to know some other phrases like "What can I get you?", "what would you like?". I know "que le gustaria" means "what would you like, but does that sound fluent?

Answer 1

I like your question. It shows you are interested in doing your job better by serving your customers.

• El pollo está acompañado con elotes, pan, papas purée, etc.
• ¿Cómo puedo servirle? How can I help you?
• ¿Qué le gustaría? What wold you like? (This is perfect)
• ¿Le gustaría algo más? Would you like anything else? Or just ¿Algo más?
• Estará Será $2.15. That will be $2.15
• Aquí es su feria. Here is your change.

I like your answers gringo...very helpful without being intimidating. - 0095ca4c, Oct 16, 2013

Thank you Margherite. - gringojrf, Oct 16, 2013

Thanks so much! Just one more question, is there a way to say a meal? Like "This meal comes with chicken, corn, etc." and I heard that you could use traer as "it comes with" is that true? - Rickyavalos16, Oct 16, 2013

For meal use "comida". I am not a native speaker so my suggestions should be subject to review. I have not heard "traer" used in this manner but that doesn't mean it cannot be used. - gringojrf, Oct 16, 2013

I like this too. - heliotropeman, Oct 17, 2013

Answer 2

is there a way to say a meal? Like "This meal comes with chicken, corn, etc." and I heard that you could use traer as "it comes with" is that true?

La comida/el plato viene con pollo, maiz etc.

In a fast food place or where you know the patrons it´s also very common to just say ¿Qué le/les damos? but ¿Cómo puedo servirle? is proper.

Estará $2.15. That will be $2.15

Serán $2.15

Feria is a slang term normally used to indicate the amount of money you have with you at any particular moment. It originally it comes from things like bus fare, but in the case of change, you should say cambio.

Feria is used extensively in baja. Cambio is seldom heard. In the CFE office the sign asks you to pay with feria. So I would not call it slang. - gringojrf, Oct 16, 2013

I still have trouble with ser v estar. Thanks. - gringojrf, Oct 16, 2013

So then anywhere outside of BC, "cambio" should be used - 005faa61, Oct 16, 2013

Agreed. Cambio is acceptable everywhere. - gringojrf, Oct 16, 2013
