Thanks for coming to this page! Negotiating a conversation helps you to navigate and figure out what people are saying. It gives you questions to ask if you don’t know a word in Spanish, or if you don’t know what something means. It helps the other people you speak to know if you need help during a conversation. If you want to try other pages like this one, go to our next lesson: What is your name? located on our conversational Spanish page. Many other categories can be found at our Spanish words page. See our Spanish for Seniors home page to see the four strategies that help you learn Spanish faster. Click the button below to see a video lesson of Negotiating a conversation:
