• ¿Cómo se llama usted?- What is your name? (this is only used formally) (this translates directly as "how do you call yourself?")
• ¿Me llamo...?- My name is... (this translates directly as "I call myself..."
• ¿Cómo estás? - How are you?
• ¡Es un placer conocer a usted! - It is a pleasure to meet you! (this is a very fancy way of saying nice to meet you that we will use)
