writes:For this one I'll need the help of some native Spanish speakers (preferably Mexican Spanish).There's this girl that I have been out with a few times. She's from Mexico and even though her English is fluent there are times when she doesn't catch details of what is being said or misunderstands certain small things. We have spent a bit of time in my room making out over the course of the last few times we've seen each other. I get the feeling that things will move past that soon (although to what degree I'm not sure).I speak a very little bit of Spanish but I would like to know some phrases or expressions that I can use when we are fooling around so as to try and minimize any miscommunication. I don't want to risk sounding overly formal or vulgar so I'm looking for the kind of thing you would say to someone when you are trying to be sexual yet sensitive and mildly romantic. I'm not thinking of anything specific so anything that fits would be much appreciated.I'm very attracted to this girl and I really like her. I want to make sure that if things progress physically that I'm able to communicate with her without either of us being embarrassed or confused.Anyone able to help me out? Reply to this Question

I'd like to be able to tell her that I think she's a great kisser/I love kissing her. I'd also like to know how to say "I like that" in the sense of if she's doing something while we're making out/etc. that I like what she's doing. Anything else you can think of in terms of something kinda cute or romantic to say would be much appreciated but just knowing that would be helpful.

 Hi,
I am from Florida but I speak FLUENT Spanish and I know Mexican Spanish (note my flag). With all respect to my compatriotas, Mexican culture is more romantic... you totally have a chance with her, just remember that being romantic, loving, etc., is very important.
In order to communicate it´s important to know the culture as well as the language. You could enroll in a class... I taught Spanish at a church in USA... many churches and community colleges offer Spanish. A real live teacher is good because you can have conversations and ask questions.
What are these phrases? Being a non-native speaker doesn´t necessarily mean an inadequate speaker. :) I´m not like Peggy from King of the Hill, lol... I really do speak Spanish. Tell me what the phrases are and we can help you.

I want to have a native speaker confirm for me that the particular phrases I'm using are appropriate to the situation and accurate

 Go to the library, check out the Rosetta stone language teacher. They have them in all language, expand your horizon.
