English to Spanish: Random Words and Phrases

If you want to learn words and phrases that you won't find in your typical Spanish class or textbook, then this is the page for you. Since it's all random, the phrases especially are translations you may not have seen before - and the list tends to get pretty long because this page is kind of a catch all for any words or phrases that don't yet fit into another category.

Anyway, the page is split into two lists - up first is the list of English to Spanish words, then below that is the English to Spanish phrases. If there comes a time where there's many words of a single theme on this page, then it'll probably be given it's own page.

Note: You can also view these words with translations from Spanish to English. Words in bold added during the last update.

The Fine Print

I don't speak Spanish myself, so there could be mistakes in the translations. Most of what is here is user-submitted, but I do try to check for accuracy and make corrections as I can. Thanks for your understanding.
