How To Say What You're Doing Right Now in Spanish

For a long time, someone could ask me what I was doing and my brain would just stop. I knew the words. I couldn't put them together on the spot. Estoy... and then nothing. This song gives you one little starter, estoy, and one ending that never changes, español. You just swap the middle. Then it walks through everyone in order: me, you, her, us, them. Sing it enough and "what are you doing?" stops being scary.

Lyrics

Intro I am is estoy Right now is ahora Estoy, ahora — I am, right now Estoy, ahora — I am, right now

Verse 1 Yo estoy aprendiendo español ahora — I am learning Spanish right now

Chorus Estoy hablando español — I am speaking Spanish Estoy aprendiendo español — I am learning Spanish Estoy escuchando español — I am listening to Spanish Estoy entendiendo español — I am understanding Spanish Estoy practicando español — I am practicing Spanish Estoy escribiendo español — I am writing Spanish

Verse 2 Tú estás aprendiendo español ahora — You are learning Spanish right now

Chorus Estás hablando español — You are speaking Spanish Estás aprendiendo español — You are learning Spanish Estás escuchando español — You are listening to Spanish Estás entendiendo español — You are understanding Spanish Estás practicando español — You are practicing Spanish Estás escribiendo español — You are writing Spanish

Verse 3 Ella está aprendiendo español ahora — She is learning Spanish right now

Chorus Está hablando español — She is speaking Spanish Está aprendiendo español — She is learning Spanish Está escuchando español — She is listening to Spanish Está entendiendo español — She is understanding Spanish Está practicando español — She is practicing Spanish Está escribiendo español — She is writing Spanish

Verse 4 Nosotros estamos aprendiendo español ahora — We are learning Spanish right now

Chorus Estamos hablando español — We are speaking Spanish Estamos aprendiendo español — We are learning Spanish Estamos escuchando español — We are listening to Spanish Estamos entendiendo español — We are understanding Spanish Estamos practicando español — We are practicing Spanish Estamos escribiendo español — We are writing Spanish

Verse 5 Ellos están aprendiendo español ahora — They are learning Spanish right now

Chorus Están hablando español — They are speaking Spanish Están aprendiendo español — They are learning Spanish Están escuchando español — They are listening to Spanish Están entendiendo español — They are understanding Spanish Están practicando español — They are practicing Spanish Están escribiendo español — They are writing Spanish

Phrases

Spanish | English estoy | I am (right now) estás | you are (right now) está | she is (right now) estamos | we are (right now) están | they are (right now) ahora | right now hablando | speaking aprendiendo | learning escuchando | listening entendiendo | understanding practicando | practicing escribiendo | writing Estoy hablando español | I am speaking Spanish

Why This Matters

You're not learning thirty sentences. You're learning one frame: who is doing it, what they're doing, and what it's about. Estoy is the "I am, right now" starter. Then you add a word that ends in -ando or -iendo, and you've got what's happening this second. In each round of the chorus the starter changes with the person (estoy, estás, está, estamos, están) and the rest stays put. Don't worry about why some endings are -ando and some are -iendo. Hear it, repeat it, and let your ear sort it out.

Usage Tip

Say it while you're doing it. Playing this episode? "Estoy escuchando español." Reading a menu? "Estoy practicando español." Nobody needs to hear you, and it counts.

How To Say Before and After in Spanish

For a long time I could say what I was doing, but I couldn't say when. Estudio español. Cool. But when? Before work? After dinner? My brain just stopped. Antes and después changed that for me. One little sentence, and you swap in the time. This song keeps the sentence the same and only changes the moment, then walks through everyone in order: me, you, her, us, them. Sing it enough and your day starts coming out in Spanish.

Lyrics

Intro Before is antes After is después Antes, después — Before, after Antes, después — Before, after

Verse 1 Yo estudio español después de la cena y antes de la cena — I study Spanish after dinner and before dinner

Chorus Estudio español después de la cena — I study Spanish after dinner Estudio español antes de la cena — I study Spanish before dinner Estudio español después del almuerzo — I study Spanish after lunch Estudio español antes del almuerzo — I study Spanish before lunch Estudio español después de la clase — I study Spanish after class Estudio español antes de la clase — I study Spanish before class Estudio español después del trabajo — I study Spanish after work Estudio español antes del trabajo — I study Spanish before work

Verse 2 Tú estudias español después de la cena y antes de la cena — You study Spanish after dinner and before dinner

Chorus Estudio español después de la cena — I study Spanish after dinner Estudio español antes de la cena — I study Spanish before dinner Estudio español después del almuerzo — I study Spanish after lunch Estudio español antes del almuerzo — I study Spanish before lunch Estudio español después de la clase — I study Spanish after class Estudio español antes de la clase — I study Spanish before class Estudio español después del trabajo — I study Spanish after work Estudio español antes del trabajo — I study Spanish before work

Verse 3 Ella estudia español después de la cena y antes de la cena — She studies Spanish after dinner and before dinner

Chorus Estudio español después de la cena — I study Spanish after dinner Estudio español antes de la cena — I study Spanish before dinner Estudio español después del almuerzo — I study Spanish after lunch Estudio español antes del almuerzo — I study Spanish before lunch Estudio español después de la clase — I study Spanish after class Estudio español antes de la clase — I study Spanish before class Estudio español después del trabajo — I study Spanish after work Estudio español antes del trabajo — I study Spanish before work

Phrases

Spanish | English antes | before después | after Estudio español | I study Spanish Estudio español antes de la cena | I study Spanish before dinner Estudio español después de la cena | I study Spanish after dinner Estudio español antes del trabajo | I study Spanish before work Estudio español después del trabajo | I study Spanish after work Estudio español después del almuerzo | I study Spanish after lunch Estudio español antes de la clase | I study Spanish before class

Why This Matters

You're not learning eight sentences. You're learning one frame: what I do, then before or after, then when. Estudio español stays the same. Antes or después flips. The time slides in at the end. Once that's in your head, you can put anything into your day. In the chorus you'll hear "de la cena" and then "del trabajo." Don't stress about it. Hear it, repeat it, and let your ear sort it out. The verses walk through the people in order, so you get me, you, her, us, and them without ever opening a grammar book.

Usage Tip

Say your real day out loud. "Estudio español antes del trabajo." "Estudio español después de la cena." Change the time to match your life. It takes ten seconds and it counts.

How To Say Where You're Going in Spanish

For a long time I could only say where I was going. Yo voy. That was it. The second I needed to talk about someone else, my brain went blank. So this song walks through everyone in order: me, you, her, us, them. Same sentence every time. Only the person changes. Then the chorus takes over and you sing your way to the beach, the park, and the movies. Sing it enough and it stops being a list and starts being something you can just say.

Lyrics

Verse 1 When I go, I say Yo voy a la playa — I go to the beach

Chorus A la playa, a la playa — To the beach, to the beach Vamos a la playa — Let's go to the beach Al parque, al parque — To the park, to the park Vamos al parque — Let's go to the park Al cine, al cine — To the movies, to the movies Vamos al cine — Let's go to the movies Voy, vas, va, vamos, van — I go, you go, she goes, we go, they go A la playa, a la playa — To the beach, to the beach

Verse 2 When you go, I say Tú vas a la playa — You go to the beach

Chorus A la playa, a la playa — To the beach, to the beach Vamos a la playa — Let's go to the beach Al parque, al parque — To the park, to the park Vamos al parque — Let's go to the park Al cine, al cine — To the movies, to the movies Vamos al cine — Let's go to the movies Voy, vas, va, vamos, van — I go, you go, she goes, we go, they go A la playa, a la playa — To the beach, to the beach

Verse 3 When she goes, I say Ella va a la playa — She goes to the beach

Chorus A la playa, a la playa — To the beach, to the beach Vamos a la playa — Let's go to the beach Al parque, al parque — To the park, to the park Vamos al parque — Let's go to the park Al cine, al cine — To the movies, to the movies Vamos al cine — Let's go to the movies Voy, vas, va, vamos, van — I go, you go, she goes, we go, they go A la playa, a la playa — To the beach, to the beach

Verse 4 When we go, I say Nosotros vamos a la playa — We go to the beach

Chorus A la playa, a la playa — To the beach, to the beach Vamos a la playa — Let's go to the beach Al parque, al parque — To the park, to the park Vamos al parque — Let's go to the park Al cine, al cine — To the movies, to the movies Vamos al cine — Let's go to the movies Voy, vas, va, vamos, van — I go, you go, she goes, we go, they go A la playa, a la playa — To the beach, to the beach

Verse 5 When they go, I say Ellos van a la playa — They go to the beach

Chorus A la playa, a la playa — To the beach, to the beach Vamos a la playa — Let's go to the beach Al parque, al parque — To the park, to the park Vamos al parque — Let's go to the park Al cine, al cine — To the movies, to the movies Vamos al cine — Let's go to the movies Voy, vas, va, vamos, van — I go, you go, she goes, we go, they go A la playa, a la playa — To the beach, to the beach

Phrases

Spanish | English Yo voy a… | I go to… Tú vas a… | You go to… Ella va a… | She goes to… Nosotros vamos a… | We go to… Ellos van a… | They go to… Vamos a la playa | Let's go to the beach Vamos al parque | Let's go to the park Vamos al cine | Let's go to the movies

Why This Matters

You're not learning five sentences. You're learning one frame: who is going, and where. The verses walk through the people in order, and the chorus lets you swap the place. Once you can move through me, you, her, us, them, you can build a brand new sentence with any person and any place. You'll hear "a la playa" and then "al parque" and "al cine." Don't stress about it. Hear it, repeat it, and let your ear sort it out. And that quick chant, voy, vas, va, vamos, van? That's the whole set in order. Sing it and it sticks.

Usage Tip

Narrate the people around you. On the street, at a café, on the bus: "Ella va al parque. Ellos van a la playa." Planning something with a friend? Just say "Vamos al cine."

Ordering Coffee and Water at a Bar in Spain Stuck in Your Head: Real Talk

The song gets the words stuck in your head. This is what it sounds like when you actually use them.

When I first got to Spain, I knew the words. I'd practiced them. Then I stood at a loud bar, the waiter looked at me, and I said nothing. So this episode is that exact moment, with no music, just a real conversation at real speed. You hear it, then you play my part out loud, then you hear it once more.

How to use this episode Round one: just listen. Round two: the pauses are for you, so say my lines out loud, even if it feels silly. Round three: listen again and notice how much you caught.

Setup You're at a bar in Valencia. It's busy. You want a coffee and a water, and then you want to pay.

Verse 1 I walk in and say hello Hola, buenos días The bar is loud, I get his attention Perdona

Chorus Quiero un café, por favor Una botella de agua, por favor Muchas gracias, muchas gracias Hasta luego, hasta luego

Quiero un café, por favor Una botella de agua, por favor Muchas gracias, muchas gracias Hasta luego, hasta luego

Verse 2 I want my water still Sin gas, por favor He asks if I want more No, gracias

Chorus Quiero un café, por favor Una botella de agua, por favor Muchas gracias, muchas gracias Hasta luego, hasta luego

Quiero un café, por favor Una botella de agua, por favor Muchas gracias, muchas gracias Hasta luego, hasta luego

Bridge ¿Cuánto cuesta? Pago con tarjeta Aquí tienes Vale, gracias

Chorus Quiero un café, por favor Una botella de agua, por favor Muchas gracias, muchas gracias Hasta luego, hasta luego

Quiero un café, por favor Una botella de agua, por favor Muchas gracias, muchas gracias Hasta luego, hasta luego

Phrases Spanish / English Perdona — Excuse me ¿Qué quieres? — What do you want? Quiero un café, por favor — I want a coffee, please ¿Algo más? — Anything else? ¿Con gas? / Sin gas — Sparkling / Still No, gracias — No, thank you ¿Cuánto cuesta? — How much does it cost? Son tres euros con cincuenta — It's three euros fifty Pago con tarjeta — I'm paying by card Aquí tienes — Here you go Hasta luego — See you later

Why This Matters The waiter's lines are just as important as yours. ¿Qué quieres? and ¿Algo más? come at you fast, and if you've never heard them, they sound like a wall. Hear them enough times and they turn into a signal: your turn. You don't have to understand every word, only the ones that mean it's time to speak.

Usage tip Don't wait until you've memorized it. Play this on your walk to the bar, and say your lines out loud when the pauses come. The first time you say them for real, they'll feel like something you've already done.

Poco a Poco — Everyday Spanish Survival Medley

One all-Spanish loop you can play on repeat.

We built these up one at a time. How to say it when you're missing a word. How to ask where something is. How to invite someone to come with you. And the little politeness words that open every door in Spain. This song puts them all in one place, all in Spanish, so you can hear how they string together in a real day. Café, street, getting lost, making plans. Press play and let the whole survival kit get stuck in your head at once.

Lyrics

¿Cómo se dice? ¿Cómo se dice? No sé la palabra, pero puedo aprender Más despacio, ¿puedes repetir? Dímelo otra vez

Hola, gracias, por favor Perdona, ¿me puedes ayudar? Hablo poco, pero voy a hablar Poco a poco, cada día

¿Dónde está el baño? ¿Dónde está el mar? No sé dónde está, pero puedo preguntar Está por aquí, está por allí Lo voy a encontrar

Hola, gracias, por favor Perdona, ¿me puedes ayudar? Hablo poco, pero voy a hablar Poco a poco, cada día

Quiero ir, quiero ir Quiero ir contigo ¿Quieres ir? ¿Quieres ir? ¿Quieres ir conmigo?

Hola, gracias, por favor Perdona, ¿me puedes ayudar? Hablo poco, pero voy a hablar Poco a poco, cada día

Key phrases

Hola, gracias, por favor | oh-lah grah-syahs por fah-bor | Hello, thank you, please Perdona, ¿me puedes ayudar? | per-doh-nah meh pweh-des ah-yoo-dahr | Excuse me, can you help me? Hablo poco, pero voy a hablar | ah-bloh poh-koh peh-roh boy ah ah-blahr | I speak a little, but I'm going to speak Poco a poco, cada día | poh-koh ah poh-koh kah-dah dee-ah | Little by little, every day ¿Cómo se dice? | koh-moh seh dee-seh | How do you say?

Why this matters

One good day of travel Spanish runs on a surprisingly short list. Greet people. Ask how to say the word you're missing. Ask where things are. Make a plan with someone. That's most of it. This medley puts all of that in a single loop so the phrases live next to each other in your memory, the way they'll actually come up in real life. And the line to hold onto is right there in the chorus: hablo poco, pero voy a hablar. I speak a little, but I'm going to speak.

Usage tip

Use this one as your warm-up. Play it on the walk to the café or before you head out for the day, and let the chorus set the tone: poco a poco, cada día. You're not trying to say everything. You're saying a little, out loud, today.

Quiero (I want) and ir (to go) are two of the core verbs that real conversations are built on. Put them together and you can invite anyone, anywhere. I want to go. Do you want to go? Do you want to come with me? That's a whole social life in one little chorus. This one's a back-and-forth between two voices, so you can hear how the question and the answer fit together, then sing both sides yourself.

Lyrics

I want to go and I don't want to go alone Quiero ir y no quiero ir solo So I ask you now, will you come along? Así que te pregunto, ¿vienes conmigo?

Quiero ir, quiero ir Quiero ir contigo ¿Quieres ir? ¿Quieres ir? ¿Quieres ir conmigo?

Where do you want to go, the beach or the sea? ¿A dónde quieres ir, la playa o el mar? Tell me yes and let's go today Dime que sí y vamos ya

Quiero ir, quiero ir Quiero ir contigo ¿Quieres ir? ¿Quieres ir? ¿Quieres ir conmigo?

¿Quieres venir conmigo? Sí, quiero ir contigo ¿Vamos ahora? Vamos, vamos, sí

Quiero ir, quiero ir Quiero ir contigo ¿Quieres ir? ¿Quieres ir? ¿Quieres ir conmigo?

Key phrases

Quiero ir | kyeh-roh eer | I want to go Quiero ir contigo | kyeh-roh eer kon-tee-goh | I want to go with you ¿Quieres ir? | kyeh-res eer | Do you want to go? ¿Quieres ir conmigo? | kyeh-res eer kon-mee-goh | Do you want to go with me? No quiero ir solo | noh kyeh-roh eer soh-loh | I don't want to go alone ¿Vienes conmigo? | byeh-nes kon-mee-goh | Are you coming with me? ¿A dónde quieres ir? | ah dohn-deh kyeh-res eer | Where do you want to go? La playa | lah plah-yah | The beach El mar | el mahr | The sea Dime que sí | dee-meh keh see | Tell me yes Vamos ya | bah-mos yah | Let's go now ¿Quieres venir conmigo? | kyeh-res beh-neer kon-mee-goh | Do you want to come with me? ¿Vamos ahora? | bah-mos ah-oh-rah | Shall we go now?

Why this matters

Quiero and quieres are the same verb, just you and me. Once your ear catches that pattern — quiero for what I want, quieres for what you want — you can turn almost anything into an invitation. Add ir and you're making plans. Add contigo and conmigo (with you, with me) and it gets personal. These are tiny words that do enormous work in everyday Spanish, and they come up the second you start making real plans with real people.

Usage tip

Notice conmigo and contigo — they don't follow the usual "con + word" pattern, so it's worth letting the song drill them in until they feel automatic. Next time you want to invite someone anywhere, you already have the line: ¿Quieres ir conmigo?

This is exactly the kind of phrase I'm learning inside The Layers Method on Skool — small words, used on repeat, until they come out on their own. Join here: https://www.skool.com/layersmethod/about?ref=bb309c98f57b4f1396f0ddbf25018f0e

This whole song is Spanish, start to finish, and that's the point. These are the words that come up every single day when you travel. Where's the bathroom. How much is it. A table for two. The bill, please. I don't understand, can you say it slower. You don't need a hundred phrases to get through a day in Spain. You need these, on a loop, until they come out without thinking. Press play, sing along, and let them get stuck.

Lyrics

¿Dónde está el baño? ¿Cuánto cuesta esto? Una mesa para dos La cuenta, por favor

Why this matters

Most days abroad run on the same short list of phrases. Not grammar, not big sentences, just the small stuff you say over and over: greet someone, ask where, ask how much, order, ask them to slow down. Learn this one song and you've got the core covered. And the last line of the chorus is the real one to hold onto: hablo poco, pero voy a hablar. I speak a little, but I'm going to speak. That's the whole attitude that gets you talking.

Usage tip

Lead with hola, gracias, por favor and perdona everywhere you go. They open every interaction and they buy you goodwill instantly. When you get stuck, drop in más despacio or ¿puedes repetir? and keep going. You're not aiming for perfect. You're aiming for said out loud.

This isn't a lesson. It's the phrase that gets you unlost anywhere in Spain.

Before you even land, this is the one to have in your pocket. You'll need the bathroom, the beach, the shop, the station — and you don't need a full sentence to find any of them. You need three words and the thing you're looking for. ¿Dónde está el baño? ¿Dónde está la playa? Same phrase every time, you just swap the ending. Learn the chorus and you can ask for anything, anywhere, the second you step off the plane.

Lyrics

I'm a little lost and I don't know the way Estoy un poco perdida y no sé por dónde ir So I stop right here and I ask someone today Así que paro aquí y le pregunto a alguien

¿Dónde está? ¿Dónde está? No sé dónde está, pero puedo preguntar ¿Dónde está? ¿Dónde está? Dímelo despacio y lo voy a encontrar

Where's the bathroom, where's the beach, where's the shop? ¿Dónde está el baño, la playa, la tienda? Slower please, can you say it again? Más despacio, ¿puedes repetir?

¿Dónde está? ¿Dónde está? No sé dónde está, pero puedo preguntar ¿Dónde está? ¿Dónde está? Dímelo despacio y lo voy a encontrar

No hablo mucho, pero no pasa nada Estoy aprendiendo un poco cada día Está por aquí, está por allí Y así, así, lo voy a encontrar

¿Dónde está? ¿Dónde está? No sé dónde está, pero puedo preguntar ¿Dónde está? ¿Dónde está? Dímelo despacio y lo voy a encontrar

Key phrases

¿Dónde está? | dohn-deh es-tah | Where is it? No sé dónde está | noh seh dohn-deh es-tah | I don't know where it is Puedo preguntar | pweh-doh preh-goon-tahr | I can ask Lo voy a encontrar | loh boy ah en-kon-trahr | I'm going to find it ¿Dónde está el baño? | dohn-deh es-tah el bah-nyoh | Where is the bathroom? La playa | lah plah-yah | The beach La tienda | lah tyen-dah | The shop Está por aquí | es-tah por ah-kee | It's around here Está por allí | es-tah por ah-yee | It's over there Más despacio | mahs des-pah-syoh | Slower ¿Puedes repetir? | pweh-des reh-peh-teer | Can you repeat? No pasa nada | noh pah-sah nah-dah | It's no problem

Why this matters

¿Dónde está? is the phrase you'll use more than almost any other when you first arrive. It's built to be reused: you say the three words, then add whatever you're looking for. Bathroom, beach, shop, station, your hotel. One phrase covers all of it. And when the answer comes back — por aquí, por allí — you'll already recognize it, because it's in the song too.

Usage tip

Point while you ask. ¿Dónde está el baño? with a glance around works in any café, shop, or street. If the answer comes too fast, follow with despacio or ¿puedes repetir? and listen for por aquí (around here) and por allí (over there). That's usually all you need to start walking in the right direction.

You know the moment. You're talking to a real person, you hit a gap, and your whole brain goes quiet. Most of us freeze right there. But you don't need to know every word. You just need to know how to ask for the one you're missing. ¿Cómo se dice? hands the conversation back to the other person and turns a blank moment into the exact word you were looking for. That's the whole trick. Ask, hear it, say it back, keep going.

Lyrics

I'm standing here and I don't know the word Estoy aquí y no sé la palabra So I ask you now and I say it out loud Así que pregunto y lo digo en voz alta

¿Cómo se dice? ¿Cómo se dice? No sé la palabra, pero puedo aprender ¿Cómo se dice? ¿Cómo se dice? Dímelo despacio y lo digo otra vez

Why this matters

You don't need more vocabulary. You need the right words, repeated enough that they come out under pressure. ¿Cómo se dice? is one of those words. It's the phrase that keeps a real conversation alive instead of ending it the second you get stuck. Learn this one and every gap becomes a chance to pick up the next word, right there, from the person in front of you.

Usage tip

Stack it with despacio and ¿puedes repetir?. Those three together let you slow anyone down and hear the word one more time so it actually sticks. You're not being difficult. Spanish speakers do this with each other all day long.
