It's important to realize that if you speak Spanish to them they will reply in Spanish and you probably will have no idea what they are saying. One thing to reply would be "mÃ¡s despacio por favor" (more slowly please). You pronounce despacio as des-path-io. Whatever you try to say just keep it very simple.

Hola, no hablo espanol. Hablas ingles? -Hello, I don't speak Spanish. Do you speak English?

And of course, Feliz Navidad!

I wouldn't worry too much; when you're in Europe, you'll find that many people speak English. And even if they don't, use hand gestures, and they'll be able to figure out what you're trying to say.

Feliz Navidad!

For Monkeez...they donÂ´t have BaÃ±os in public places in Spain. They have aseos, or servicios. A BaÃ±o has a shower and bath. You find those in homes.

And Marina didnÂ´t learn very well at the knee of her papÃ¡. Her spelling is completely off and the grammar isnÂ´t much better.

I have found that no matter where you go, there are a few phrases that are indespensible:

Please Por favor
Thank you Gracias (if you want to sound authentic, itÂ´s pronounced Grah thee ahs).
YouÂ´re welcome De nada
Hello Hola, Buenos DÃas, Buenas Tardes (afternoon until sunset) Buenas noches (almost always as a saying goodbye).
So long Hasta Luego, Hasta la vista (the h is silent)
How much? Â¿CuÃ¡nto cuesta?
and the numbers from one to ten
uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, seis, siete, ocho, nueve, diez.
Where is....? Â¿DÃ³nde estÃ¡?

Also, Merry Christmas is Feliz Navidad. (Not to be forgotten for the season.)

Â¡Buen viaje!

don't worry, they won't get what you say...

and if you don't talk spanish is very unlikely your are going to learn spanish in few days.

don't stress yourself, and have a good one in spain, at least get a translator ecause nobody speaks english, it is easier to find english speakers in mexico.

hahaha
