Although the Spanish influence in Miami is undeniable, like most exotic places, the residents speak at least a little English. However, here are a few Spanish phrases that might prove useful during your “dias y noches calientes” of WMC! And, even if everyone does speak English, try out your Spanish to make your Miami stay a little more authentic.
The obvious: “Hola, adios, por favor, gracias, de nada” for Hello, Goodbye, Please, Thank you, You’re Welcome. It’s always important to be polite when you’re un turista!
When renting a beach chair for the day: “¿Senor, cuanto cuesta una tumbona?”
When giving your taxi driver directions: “Senor, necesitamos ir a ________________________ por favor” (You might fill in the words “la playa” for beach, “el club” for club….)
If you need help in any situation: “Necesito ayuda porque ____________________” (You might fill in the words “mi amiga esta enferma” for “my friend is sick” or “estamos perdidos” for “we are lost”)
When asking where something is located: “¿Donde es el club Space?” “¿Donde es Collins Avenue?”
When you feel inspired by the hot Miami WMC nights: “¡Yo encanto los DJs a WMC!” or “¡Me gusta las noches del Miami durante el WMC!”
If you aren’t feeling quite so confident with your Spanish speaking skills, don’t worry; during WMC everyone does speak the same language: Music.
