Gracias Thank you
The words that smooth every conversation: gracias and de nada, por favor, and two ways to apologise — perdón (a small bump, getting past someone) and lo siento (a more heartfelt regret). You close with hasta luego. Spanish is warm and direct with courtesy: these few words go a very long way. And we keep tuning the sounds — the c of gracias, the v of favor.
