Step 1
The word for "man" in Spanish is "hombre".
-
Step 2
The "h" is silent so don't pronounce it!
Instead, you would say "ahm-bray". Say it quickly, because Spanish is not a slowly spoken language! If you say it too slowly it will sound really bad. -
Step 3
If you want to say "man" as a form of address like, "Hey man, I like your car", then you can still use "hombre". But you may want to use a word that is specific to this case.
However, in different countries there are usually other forms of saying "man" as a form of address.
Look at the following list to see what you might use depending on the country you are in:
Spain = tío
Parts of Latin America = mano
Argentina = che
Chile = gallo
Anywhere = amigo
So, if you want to localize your Spanish, use one of the above forms of address.
