🚨 Spanish at the Airport: Words You’re Probably Using Wrong! ✈️
Airports are stressful, but adding Spanish mix-ups to the equation? 😵💫 Let’s fix these common word blunders so you can travel with confidence!
🛑 Mistake #1: Saying “embarazada” to mean embarrassed.
✅ Fix: Embarazada means pregnant! If you miss your flight and feel embarrassed, say: “Estoy avergonzado/a.”
🛑 Mistake #2: Asking for a “carro” at baggage claim.
✅ Fix: A carro is a car! What you need for your bags is a carrito.
🛑 Mistake #3: Saying “¡Estoy caliente!” when you’re hot.
✅ Fix: This means I’m feeling sexy! Instead, say: “Tengo calor” to avoid awkward stares.
🛑 Mistake #4: Mixing up “salida” and “llegada.”
✅ Fix: Salida is for departures; llegada is for arrivals. Double-check those signs before wandering off!
