Free for listeners: the Fluency Phrasebook, 95 essential beginner phrases: 👉 spanishobsessed.com/start How do you say sorry in Spanish without sounding like someone has died? Rob and Lis separate everyday apologies from serious ones, reveal the word people in Spain use to catch a waiter's eye, and share a word for a slip-up with a more scandalous second meaning. By the end, you'll be able to admit a mistake, insist it wasn't on purpose, and earn a forgiveness that comes with a catch. Do you know what these mean? Perdona · Lo siento · Me equivoqué · No fue a propósito Hear it, then see it. Follow along with the transcript and translations: 👉 spanishobsessed.com/go/saying-sorry
