The fifteenth birthday party for a girl = La fiesta del decimoquinto cumpleaños de una chica

Quinceañera. Very popular here in California. Many stores carry products and advertisements for them.

Coming back to the driving age, why do people think that because several countries speak the same language, they are going to have the same laws and customs'

Very true. Even in the US, each state determines its own minimum driving age. Here is a map of the states and the ages.

Are you asking us what is the driving age in our countries, or how to say this sentence in Spanish? I hope you are not asking the former, because the driving age is not determined according to the official language of a country, and it can easily vary from one to another. if your question is the latter, it could be asked, for example, like:¿Cuál es la edad mínima para conducir in la mayoría de los países hispanohablantes'In some countries they use "manejar" instead of "conducir".

The fifteenth birthday party for a girl = La fiesta del decimoquinto cumpleaños de una chicaComing back to the driving age, why do people think that because several countries speak the same language, they are going to have the same laws and customs? In Spain is 18, but in other countries could be 16, 19, or 20, or 21, or 7, or anything! I cannot know that! Only someone who has lived in a particular country can answer that for that country. There is no law that says... you cannot drive until you are 20 years old because... you speak Spanish, or 16 because you speak English. That's ridiculous!

Coming back to the driving age, why do people think that because several countries speak the same language, they are going to have the same laws and customs? In Spain the driving age is 18 (at the moment), but in other countries could be 16, 19, or 20, or 21, or 7, or anything! I cannot know that! Only someone who has lived in a particular country can answer that for that country. There is no law that says... you cannot drive until you are 20 years old because... you speak Spanish, or 16 because you speak English. That's ridiculous!
