In the 5 minutes of Spanish in the middle of the week we are going to comment on something basic, but very practical: the greetings and goodbyes, something more than hello and goodbye.

Wonderful, Palmilla is the best! If we're on a formal job or with someone we don't know: How are you doing Mr. Satorno? Very well thanks, and you? Good evening, nice to see yo
