| INTRODUCTION |
| There is so much to do in Spain and there are times when access to some massive places requires an admission ticket. So today, we’re going to work on getting you through the gate as we’ll take a look at buying tickets. |
| GRAMMAR POINT |
| In Spanish, “admission ticket” is entrada. |
| entrada |
| One more time, entrada. |
| In Spanish, “One ticket please” is Una entrada por favor. |
| Una entrada por favor. |
| Let’s break it down by syllable: U-na en-tra-da por fa-vor. |
| Now, let’s hear it once again, Una entrada por favor. |
| The first word, una, means “one.” |
| una |
| Once again, una. |
| This is followed by entrada, which in Spanish is “admission ticket.” |
| entrada |
| Syllable break down: en-tra-da. |
| And once again, entrada. |
| The next two words, por favor, mean “please.” |
| por favor |
| And por favor. |
| Now, we’ll work on getting tickets for the rest of the party. Let’s just recap numbers here. |
| “One” is uno. |
| “Two” is dos. |
| “Three” is tres. |
| “Four” is cuatro. |
| “Five” is cinco. |
| And now, let’s put them together. |
| To get tickets for two people, Dos entradas por favor. |
| Dos entradas por favor. |
| Let’s break it down by syllable: Dos en-tra-das por fa-vor. |
| And now, let’s hear it once again, Dos entradas por favor. |
| To get tickets for three people, Tres entradas por favor. |
| Tres entradas por favor. |
| Let’s break it down by syllable: Tres en-tra-das por fa-vor. |
| Now, let’s hear it once again, Tres entradas por favor. |
| To get tickets for four people, Cuatro entradas por favor. |
| Cuatro entradas por favor. |
| Let’s break it down by syllable: Cua-tro en-tra-das por fa-vor. |
| And now, let’s hear it once again, Cuatro entradas por favor. |
| And to get tickets for five people, Cinco entradas por favor. |
| Cinco entradas por favor. |
| Let’s break it down by syllable: Cin-co en-tra-das por fa-vor. |
| And let’s hear it once again, Cinco entradas por favor. |
| Very often, the admission ticket you’ll have acquired will grant you access to several precincts in the same place. For this reason, keep this admission ticket with you until you leave the place you are visiting because you may be required to show your ticket at the entrance of different precincts. |
| If this happens, staff will ask, Su entrada por favor, which means “Your admission ticket please.” |
| Su entrada por favor. |
| Let’s break it down by syllable: Su en-tra-da por fa-vor. |
| One more time, Su entrada por favor. |
