Asking cute stranger for their number: Asking for their number or social media

💬 Disculpa is the casual form for one person you'd call tú; with someone older or in a formal setting, say disculpe.

💬 Spanish says hacer una pregunta, literally "make a question", where English says ask a question. preguntar alone also works: ¿Te puedo preguntar algo? "Can I ask you something?"

💬 Dime is literally "tell me": di "tell" with me attached to the end. The same thing happens in escríbeme "write to me" and pásame "pass me".

🇲🇽 In Mexico, dime is the natural, friendly way to invite someone to say what's on their mind. You'll hear it constantly, not just after being asked a question.

💬 caer bien literally means "to fall well", but it means you like someone's company. Flip it to me caes mal "I don't like you".

🇲🇽 Me caíste muy bien is warm without being forward. It says you enjoyed talking with them, which makes it a safe opener before asking for contact details.

💬 In Mexico, asking with a simple present-tense question like ¿me pasas…? "do you pass me…?" is a soft, casual request. Same pattern: ¿me pasas la sal? "can you pass the salt?"

💬 pasar usually means "to pass", but here it means to share or send something. Same pattern: pásame tu número "give me your number".

🇲🇽 Asking for Instagram instead of a phone number feels lower-pressure in Mexico. Phone numbers are usually shared on WhatsApp once there's more trust.

🇲🇽 Va is a very Mexican, casual "okay" or "deal"; you'll also hear sale for the same thing. Keep it to informal chats.
