1.11: How to introduce your family members

Learn Spanish with Live Lingua

18-08-2020 • 2 mins

¡Hola!  Welcome to m-episode 1.11 of the Live Lingua Spanish Podcast.

Let’s practice introducing your family members in Spanish. To introduce others we will use the phrase ‘le presento’ which means ‘may I introduce you to’.

This is followed by my ‘mi’ if you are introducing a family member since you are implying a relationship with you.

Example:

Le presento a mi esposo -> May I introduce you to my husband.

If you are introducing a person by their first name, without including their title, you add an ‘a’ before the name:

Example:

Le presento a Ray Blakney -> May I introduce you to Ray Blakney.

If you are introducing a person with their title you add either an ‘a la’ if they are female or ‘al’, spelled ‘A-L’ if they are male. That is just a contraction of ‘a el’.

Example:

Le presento a la doctora Sánchez -> May I introduce you to Dr. Sánchez.

Now, repeat all the following phrases out loud, but add the word ‘le presento’ at the beginning of each one.

Example:

A mi hijo -> Le presento a mi hijo.

Enjoy this m-episode.  Let’s get started.  Empezamos.
