These basic but authentic Spanish phrases will help you express
your ideas when writing to Spanish-speaking friends and acquaintances.
You can copy the phrases you need and adapt them to your own
personal needs. Although this might still seem difficult if you
are just starting Spanish as a second language, by having the main
part of the phrase correct, your Spanish will sound better and you
will begin to learn as you use the phrases.
Avoid using online translators (like Google translate) for
writing your own emails in Spanish but only for understanding incoming
correspondence.
