¡Hola! Introducing Yourself in Spanish — Languages

¡Hola! Introducing Yourself in Spanish

1 of 4

For grown-ups

Companion summary

Imagine walking into a room full of new friends who only speak Spanish — what would you say first? Knowing how to say your name and age opens doors on holidays, pen-pal letters, and trips abroad. Here is a cool fact: "Me llamo" means "I call myself," not just "my name is" — Spanish is poetic like that. When you feel confident, try learning how to ask someone else their name too.

Can You Crack the Code?

Imagine you have just arrived at a school in Spain. Everyone is speaking Spanish and a friendly classmate walks up to you and says: '¡Hola! Me llamo Sofía. ¿Cómo te llamas?' You have no idea what she said — but you really want to reply! By the end of this lesson, you will know exactly what those words mean AND you will be able to answer back in Spanish.

Your Spanish Introduction Toolkit

When you introduce yourself in Spanish, you only need four key phrases. Let's look at each one. **1. Saying hello** The most common greeting is (say it: OH-lah). It simply means 'Hello!' You can also say ¡Buenos días! (BWAY-nos DEE-as), which means 'Good morning!' **2. Saying your name** To say 'My name is …' you say: … (say it: meh YAH-moh). So a boy called Marco would say: Me llamo Marco. If someone asks 'What is your name?' they say: (KOH-moh teh YAH-mas). You answer with Me llamo [your name]. **3. Saying your age** To say 'I am … years old' you say: . (TEN-goh … AN-yos). The word tengo comes from the verb tener, which means 'to have'. In Spanish, you do not 'be' an age — you 'have' years! So an eight-year-old says: Tengo ocho años. Here are some useful numbers: • seis = 6 • siete = 7 • ocho = 8 • nueve = 9 • diez = 10 • once = 11 • doce = 12 **4. Saying where you are from** To say 'I am from …' you say: (soy deh). Soy means 'I am'. So someone from London says: Soy de Londres. Someone from Mexico City says: Soy de Ciudad de México. Put it all together and you get a full introduction: ¡Hola! Me llamo Priya. Tengo diez años. Soy de Mumbai.

Worked example

Let's build an introduction together for a fictional character called Luca, who is 11 years old and from Rome, Italy. Step 1 — Greeting: ¡Hola! Step 2 — Name: Me llamo Luca. Step 3 — Age: Luca is 11. The Spanish for 11 is once. So: Tengo once años. Step 4 — Home: Rome in Spanish is Roma. So: Soy de Roma. Full introduction: ¡Hola! Me llamo Luca. Tengo once años. Soy de Roma. Now try saying it out loud with your own name, age, and home town!
