Un poco de cultura • When greeting someone in a Spanish speaking country it is customary to exchange an air kiss or “beso” on one cheek. (In Spain, they “air” kiss on both cheeks). Many times a hug will accompany this kiss. • If two men are greeting each other, they will either hug or shake hands. • Culturally most Spanish speakers do not have the same personal “bubble” that we have in the US.

Formal vs Informal: Un video para explicar

usted This is the formal “you”. We use to show respect to… • elders, • people in respected positions, • people you don’t know well or at all, • people you call by their last name and • anyone with a title. When abbreviated it looks like this: Ud.

usted = you (formal)

tú This is the informal or familiar “you” that is used with • good friends, • family, and • people younger than you. • people you call by their first name

tú = you (informal/ familiar)

Formal vs Informal: If you are unsure about the age or familiarity, use formal Spanish. With certain people, you may speak formally in some situations while informally in other situations.
