Well, you’ve received an invitation to a Spanish party—or maybe you’re hosting one yourself. Either way, coming armed with some basic words is a smart move. It’s polite, it shows confidence, and let’s be real—it’s a lot more fun when you can join in. From grabbing a drink and commenting on the music to navigating small talk, here are the key Spanish phrases to help you shine at the fiesta.
-

-
¿Quieres bailar? — Do you want to dance?
Simple and courteous. If it’s a yes, you’re in. If not, smile and move on.
