Everything here is A1 level — present tense, common words, no jargon. If a phrase feels long, break it into two breaths when you speak. Many situations follow a script: greeting, request, confirmation, thanks. Learn the pattern once and you will recognize it in shops, clinics, hotels, and offices across countries.
Start with essentials like "Me duele la cabeza" and "¿Tiene algo para la alergia?" — then add "¿Cada cuántas horas?" when you need to go deeper. Each line below is chosen for at the pharmacy and matches what native speakers actually say.
