Common Spanish Phrases for After the Party
Here are some very common phrases in Spanish that every Mexican has said after a party is over and that you’ll learn on this Tik Tok video. Don’t think that these phrases are just for adults. That’s not the case at all.
Kids could also benefit from learning and using these expressions. Because they’re so common they’ll probably hear them when they visit Mexico or talk to a native Spanish speaker.
Help your children learn this, so they can later apply them in a real-life situation. Some of these next phrases work as orders or petitions and some as general expressions:
- ¡Ay, no! / Oh, no!
- Se acabó la fiesta. / The party is over.
- No hay nadie aquí. / There’s no one here.
- ¡Ni modo! / Oh well!
- Hay que levantar. / I have to clean up.
- ¡Ven aquí! / Come here!
- Ayúdame. / Help me.
- ¡Ándale! / Come on!
- Vamos a limpiar. / Let’s clean.
- Listo. / Ready / Done.
- Levanta los platos. / Get the dishes.
- ¡Muy bien! / Nice! / Very well!
- Barre el patio. / Sweep the patio.
- Te toca. / It’s your turn.
Parents and children can practice this together. Whenever you want your kids to help you with a chore that fits one of the phrases above, tell them in Spanish. And the kids could use one of the slang expressions as an answer. For example:
- Mom / Dad / Tutor: Levanta los platos, por favor. (Get the dishes, please).
- Kid: Listo! (Done!)
See? These phrases are for daily life.
