This is a very good lesson when you have to eat lunch every day with the same family. I would always say the same things: “Si, gracias” or “No, gracias.” Now I have a variety of things to use to spice up my answers! My Spanish tutor here in Portland, Oregon (from a company called Portland In Spanish) suggested that if I had time, when she taught me a basic phrase, I should look up alternative phrases with the same meaning if I use it a lot. Thanks Adir! You helped me complete my homework for the week.
