How Do You Say So In Spanish

In Spanish, how do you say "so"?

I suggest you provide more context, for example beyond the use as “así”, “so” has other uses in English which translate into different words, example:“This is so interesting”, which translates as “esto es tan interesante”. Here the word “so” translates as “tan” or “muy” in some cases.“I am allergic to nuts” “So is my brother”. In this case, the tranlation would be “Soy alérgico a las nueces” “mi hermano también”. Here you cannot translate the second phrase literally, but the sense is similar to the one I used in Spanish."Failure to do so could mean a fine”, translates “No hacerlo [así] puede acarrear una multa”. In this case, you can even decide whether or not to use the translation of the word “so”.I leave it here but without context you cannot know what is the right translation for a word with so many uses in English that it requires different words to convey the same idea in Spanish.

How do you say ‘son’ in Spanish?

To say “son”, the word “hijo” (pronounced ee-ho) is used.You might also hear “mi ‘ijo” (mee-ho) which means “my son”. Notice the “i” in both words are shared as if it’s one word. This happens a lot.Hijo is also used in the vernacular to mean “dude”, “friend”, etc.—especially “mi hijito” (mee-hee-toe) which literally means “my small son” but is commonly used to directly refer to a friend.I have an embarrassing and instructive story:Years ago while first struggling to learn Spanish, I was walking with 3 Colombians. 2 female and 1 male. The Barranquillera says to the guy “aaay, mi hijito” —I was in the stage of trying to literally translate everything, so what I heard was, “aah-ee mee hee-toe”. Knowing that “mee” meant “my”, I asked them “what does “jito” mean?They looked confused and asked me to repeat it. When they realized I was thinking that “jito” was some noun, they busted up laughing. I’ve never seen anyone laugh that hard;)
