There are two ways to say "Do you speak English?"
1 ¿Habla Inglés? (Formal) ("Formal" means "serious": this is how we speak or write to older, or more important people)
2 ¿Hablas Inglés? (Informal) ("Informal" means "relaxed": this is how we speak to friends or other young people)
Notice how printed Spanish questions use two question marks, ¿ = upside-down (at the beginning), and ? right-side up at the end.
Sí,
hablo inglés.
Sí,
hablo un poco.
No,
no hablo inglés
Pay attention! In the video, there should be an accent mark on
the “i”, not a dot. On the video they made an important mistake.
Si = “if”
Sí = "yes"
These two words sound different. "Yes" is stronger (it is stressed).
