Learn Spanish for Travel and Daily Life: 378 Flashcards from Hola to Aspiradora

Most Spanish courses teach you to conjugate before they teach you to ask for the bill. The Flip It deck Spanish Travel & Daily Life (code ZS7420) inverts that: 378 flashcards of the words you actually reach for at an airport counter, a restaurant table, a pharmacy or your own kitchen. It is a survival vocabulary you can carry to Madrid or Mexico City in a couple of weeks.

The ground it covers

Greetings and introductions (Hola, Buenos días, Me llamo…), transport (aeropuerto, avión, autobús, bicicleta, billete de ida y vuelta), hotels (llave, registro de entrada), restaurants (camarero, la cuenta por favor, vino, arroz, agua, té), money and shopping (dinero, barato, supermercado, bolsa, mochila), health and emergencies (estoy enfermo, dolor de cabeza, dentista, peligro, emergencia, llame a la policía), directions (izquierda, derecha, norte, este, plaza, playa), time (¿Qué hora es?, viernes, abril, octubre, ahora, fin de semana), numbers from uno to mil plus ordinals and colours, the whole house (salón, sótano, techo, sábana, estante, cuadro, sartén, cuchillo, aspiradora, secador de pelo), and daily verbs (desayunar, almorzar, cenar, limpiar, planchar, dormir).

Sample cards

Two things to watch

The slash is the lesson. Cards like vegetariano/a, alérgico/a, perdido/a and barato/a are teaching gender agreement without a grammar table. Decide your own ending once and drill only that form — a woman rehearsing soy vegetariana out loud learns faster than someone memorizing an abstract pair. The same slash elsewhere marks regional variants: almorzar in Mexico, comer in Spain; estufa versus cocina; sala versus salón. Pick the variant of the country you're travelling to and treat the other as passive recognition.

Chunk by scene, not by alphabet. The deck is already ordered by situation. Study it that way: one session on the airport-to-hotel run, one on the restaurant, one on the pharmacy. Rehearse each block as a short imagined dialogue — Buenos días, tengo una reserva… la llave, por favor — so retrieval is triggered by the situation rather than by an English prompt you won't have abroad.

Start with the emergency and restaurant blocks: they are the highest-consequence cards in the deck. Numbers next, because prices, platforms and room numbers are useless without them.
