Lesson Vocabulary & Phrases
Qué gusto
keh GOOS-toh
What a pleasure
🇲🇽 [Qué gusto] is a warm, common opener in Mexico for reconnecting. In networking, it sounds friendly without being overly intimate.
See breakdown →Verte otra vez
BEHR-teh OH-trah behs
To see you again
💬 When a verb is followed by [te], Spanish often attaches it to the end: [ver] + [te] → [verte]. Same pattern: [conocer] + [te] → [conocerte].
See breakdown →Qué gusto verte otra vez.
keh GOOS-toh BEHR-teh OH-trah behs
It's great to see you again.
💬 [Qué gusto] often works like an exclamation before another verb: [Qué gusto verte]. You can reuse the pattern with other verbs: [Qué gusto saludarte].
See breakdown →Después
dehs-PWEHS
After
Del evento
dehl eh-BEHN-toh
Of the event
💬 [del] is the usual contraction of [de el]. You use it before a masculine singular noun: [del evento], [del proyecto].
See breakdown →Después del evento
dehs-PWEHS dehl eh-BEHN-toh
After the event
💬 [del] is short for [de el], so [después del evento] is literally "after of-the event." The same contraction shows up constantly: [del trabajo], [del correo].
See breakdown →Igualmente.
ee-gwahl-MEHN-teh
Likewise.
🇲🇽 [Igualmente] is a natural reply when someone says something kind like [qué gusto verte]. It means "same here" more than a literal "likewise."
See breakdown →Me dio mucho gusto
meh DYOH MOO-choh GOOS-toh
I was very glad
💬 [Me dio gusto] literally says "it gave me pleasure," which Spanish uses where English often says "I was glad." You can swap in other things after it: [Me dio gusto verte], [Me dio gusto hablar contigo].
See breakdown →Conocerte
koh-noh-SEHR-teh
To meet you
💬 [conocerte] is [conocer] + [te], with [te] attached to the end. Spanish does this a lot with infinitives: [llamarte], [agradecerte].
