Hi everybody, Rosa here. Welcome to as a teacher where I'll answer some of your most

common Spanish questions. The question for this lesson is, where are some Spanish business

expressions? If we consider that about 500 million people are native Spanish speakers, we can understand

why Spanish is becoming one of the most used languages in the world of business.

In this lesson, we'll go over some basic business expressions that you can use in Spanish.

Disculpe in the Retrasso, which means, I am sorry for being late, is a very useful phrase.

You can use this for whenever you can't manage to be on time for a meeting or just coming

late to the office.

You can also say, Lamento the retrasso, which means the same thing but the sense of regret is stronger.

And don't forget to offer your Targeta de Visita or Business card when you are beginning a business relationship with someone.

A very useful expression to learn is the combination of a substantive plus the complement of the

Negotios, which means of business.

Following this combination, we can form expressions like

Cena de negocius, meaning business dinner,

Viaje de neogios, meaning business trip, reunion of negocius, meaning business meeting,

Centro of Negoti means business center,

Visita of Negocius, meaning business visit, and many others,

like in the examples,

Oi Tengo a Cena of Negotios, meaning,

Today I have a business dinner, or

where will we have the business meeting?

When will we have the business meeting?
