How to show respect in Spanish (even with a limited vocabulary!)

When traveling/living in a Spanish-speaking country, or even just speaking with people from Latin America, it's important to understand their culture - what's common courtesy in their culture?
Even with a very limited vocabulary, there are some basic things you can do to show respect and make sure that you're creating a positive environment to begin communicating in Spanish.
In this video I share the 7 main ways to easily show respect and merge into the local culture with ease.

    Wow no comments!! It is really easy to disrespect a Hispanic person!! I have become an expert so I will understand these corrections very mucho 😂 I heard the first advise and it hits home. I for one have to make this a habit, a NEW HABIT. I mean use it all the time. Now I will listen to the rest of the video and probably find more I need to change!! ❤

    There are definitely some common courtesies that everyone may not be used to 😅 Luckily the Latino people are generally quite forgiving and won't necessarily hold it against you. Definitely good to know though and like you say, start forming those new habits ☺

    It is a challenge to motivate students to participate in the lessons, but At Global Spanish and Portuguese students love learning about other cultures, traditions and ways of living. Besides, they can practise the language with native teachers from Argentina, Colombia and Brazil.This is a good way of engaging them.

    Panama doesn't use Usted as Mexico does.... yes, they used it in the court with the judge, but not on the street.

    Interesting. That's not something I picked up on when I was there. Which part of Panama are you in? What do they use instead?

    I live in Orlando with lots of Hispanics, they will not move out of your way. It's kinda annoying

    Es verdad. Yes, this is a common, cultural thing in most of Latin America. I'm surprised to hear it's been carried over in Orlando, though. Interesante. Thanks for sharing!

    Nice video but she definitely needs to improve her SPOKEN SPANISH! Less woke preaching and more verbal quality should do! 💥
