June 12th marks the annual celebration of Philippine Independence Day, a proud moment in the nation’s history when Filipinos commemorate their hard-fought freedom from centuries of Spanish colonial rule. It’s a day of patriotic pride, reflection, and unity, observed both within the country and by Filipino communities around the globe.
If you’ve ever found yourself in a Spanish-speaking country or chatting with Spanish-speaking friends, one word you’ll definitely want to know is “thankful.” So, let’s get straight to it:
The word for “thankful” in Spanish is agradecido (for men) or agradecida (for women). Estoy muy agradecido/a means “I’m very thankful.”
Gratitude is one of the most powerful human emotions — and learning how to express it in another language is a great way to connect with people on a deeper level. Whether you're a traveller, an expat or someone sending support across borders, knowing how to say “thankful” and “thank you” in Spanish adds a personal and respectful touch to your conversations.
If you’re learning Spanish or getting ready for a holiday, knowing how to count is one of the most useful skills to pick up. To answer the question right away:
11 in Spanish is “once” (pronounced: on-seh).
It’s part of a group of unique number names from 11 to 15 that don’t follow the standard pattern, so they’re worth memorising early on. Whether you're booking a table, buying something, or ordering drinks on the beach, numbers come up a lot – and getting them right helps you feel more confident and understood.
