Mexican Spanish Survival Kit

Stop freezing. Start speaking. The Mexican Spanish you need in your first weeks in Mexico, in the situations you actually face: the taco stand, the taxi, the market, the pharmacy.

Who it's for: you live in Mexico, you're spending the winter here, or you've got a trip coming up. You know more Spanish than you can speak. This is so that when it's your turn, the phrase is already there.

What's inside

• A PDF guide: 180 phrases, 15 for each situation, each with its English meaning
• 12 audio drills (MP3), one per situation, about 3 to 4 minutes each

How the drills work

1. Listen and say. You hear a phrase in English. In the pause, say it in Spanish from memory. Then you hear how it's said in Mexico, twice, and repeat it.
2. Quick-fire. The same phrases in Spanish only, faster. Repeat each one in the pause.

Play them in the car, on a walk or while you cook. No screen needed.

The 12 situations

Meeting Someone New · Catching Up & Small Talk · At the Taco Stand · Getting a Table & Ordering · Paying & Praising the Meal · Asking & Finding Your Way · Taxis, Uber & Didi · At the Market & Haggling · Paying at the Register · Pharmacy, Doctor & Emergencies · Making Plans · Reacting Like a Local

Why I made it

I'm David. I live in Mérida, and I built PalabraFlow, a Mexican Spanish app. Not everyone wants to learn on an app, so I also made the Survival Kit: the real phrases for each situation in a printable guide, and audio drills that leave you a pause to say them out loud. No app, no subscription. Pay once, keep it.
