In this Spanish lesson we are going to learn typical Spanish phrases that will help you get by in a pharmacy in Spanish. This is the final part of a series of two video lessons about the pharmacy in Spanish. In the previous lesson we learned some useful Spanish vocabulary related to managing in a pharmacy in Spanish and I definitely recommend that you review that lesson before or straight after watching this new video. There are certain key topics that you should always be confident in before travelling to a foreign language speaking country and one of these is Health & Safety. In future lessons we will also look at how to manage in a dentist’s and doctor’s in Spanish so that you are confident with the vital vocabulary, questions and answers should you ever have the misfortune of falling ill whilst on holiday, on a business trip or when living in a Spanish speaking country. As always, practice really does make perfect so do your best to complete each lesson’s activity and then write out as many practice sentences as you can to help better remember each topic. With Spanish vocabulary it is always advisable to concentrate on no more than ten to fifteen new words a day and I find one of the best ways to remember is to label items in your house with their equivalent titles in Spanish. That way everytime you reach for or notice the item you will think of its title in Spanish.
