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.

Whether you’re moving abroad, going on holiday, or sending encouragement to someone from afar, knowing how to say “good luck” in another language is a thoughtful way to connect.

So let’s get right to it; French for good luck is “Bonne chance”. But it isn’t pronounced as you’d think…

If you’re learning Spanish or preparing for a trip to a Spanish-speaking country, one word you’ll want to get to grips with early on is “start.”
So let’s begin there:

    The most common translation for “start” in Spanish is empezar.
    It’s a verb that means “to start” or “to begin.” For example:
    Vamos a empezar la clase.  “We’re going to start the class.”

You might also see comenzar, which is a near synonym and used in much the same way. Depending on the country or region, one may be more common than the other – empezar is generally more widely used in everyday speech, while comenzar can sound slightly more formal or poetic.
