Quiero — I Want!
The Spanish word for I want is quiero! It sounds like kee-EH-roh. At a restaurant, you use quiero to order food. Quiero pollo means I want chicken. Quiero arroz means I want rice. Quiero agua means I want water. You already know food words — now quiero connects them to ordering! Always add por favor to be polite: quiero pollo, por favor.
