If you expect to ever get to speak Spanish, then you have to do something more than just learning Spanish grammar and vocabulary.
Don’t get me wrong: I am, indeed, a great fan of grammar. However, you really need to practice doing Spanish sentences if you want to reach a level where you can put those words and grammar rules together.
The topic of this is a very basic approach in that direction. I have put together these few very simple questions and answers that relate to buying and selling dialog. I hope you will find it useful.
BUYER: Hello. How much does this book cost? BUYER: Hello. How much does this book cost? SELLER: It costs two hundred (200) pesos. SELLER: It costs two-hundred (200) pesos.
BUYER: Good day. How much is this table? BUYER: Good morning. How much does this cost table? SELLER: Vale dos mil (2,000) pesos. SELLER: It costs two-thousand (2,000) pesos.
BUYER: Good afternoon. How much does a coffee cost? BUYER: Good afternoon. How much does a (cup of) coffee cost? SELLER: El Expreso costs 20. American coffee, 25. SELLER: The Express costs 20. The "American coffee" 25.
BUYER: Good morning. How much is the kilo of apples? BUYER: Good morning. How much for the kilo of apples? SELLER: It is thirty (pesos) per kilo. SELLER: It is thirty (pesos) the kilo.
