Selling in Spanish · Lesson 3 of 3

Sound native, not translated

6 min

Buyers notice a literal translation in the first line. A few habits keep your Spanish natural.

  • Choose "tú" or "usted" and keep it everywhere. "Tú" feels close and is common in online marketing; "usted" fits formal topics like legal or financial services for older audiences.
  • Avoid words that only one country uses, unless your audience is from that country.
  • Adapt examples: holidays, foods, sports and money habits differ between countries.
  • Keep sentences short. Spanish runs about 20% longer than English, so cut, don't just translate.
  • Have a native speaker read your page and your first emails before you launch.

Your task

Read your Spanish page out loud. Anything that sounds like a manual or a dubbed movie, rewrite in your own words.
