You can try to use these expressions every time you want to agree, disagree or partially agree to someone. Try to mix them up and not use always the same ones, as you will forget the others. I suggest that for the moment you leave the colloquial expressions we have learned here for conversations you have with people you are friendly with or people who know how to take a joke, as some of the colloquial expressions could come across as sounding a bit rude if you don\u2019t use them in exactly the right moments and with exactly the right tone of voice. Using colloquial Spanish correctly takes time and practice. It is good to listen to native speakers talking together as often as possible to get a feel for how we use the expressions. Try to watch Spanish TV programs or listen to Spanish Radio if you don\u2019t live in an area with Spanish speakers.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Que pase\u00eds una semana genial y hasta pronto.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a1Adi\u00f3s!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a1Hola a todos!
