Hey, how have you all been?<\/p>\n

Let’s suppose you’re traveling in a Spanish-speaking country. You decide to rent a car and here are some useful sentences when you go to a service station. As you don’t know where things are, you can start by asking where the service station is:<\/p>\n

\u00bfHay una estaci\u00f3n de servicio por aqu\u00ed?<\/em> – Is there a service station nearby?
\n\u00bfD\u00f3nde puedo encontrar una estaci\u00f3n de servicio? <\/em>– Where can I find a service station?<\/p>\n

When you get to the service station, you can ask the clerk:<\/p>\n

Quiero diez litros <\/em>– I want ten liters…<\/p>\n

… de gasolina.<\/em> – … of gas.
\n… de gas\u00f3leo\/di\u00e9sel<\/em>. – … of diesel.
\n... de normal.<\/em> – … of regular unleaded.
\n…de extra\/premium\/etc. <\/em>…of extra\/premium (high-octane unleaded).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n… el agua?<\/em> – … the water?
\n… el aceite?<\/em> – … the oil?
