SCENARIO
Imagine
you
are talking to a relative, a friend or colleague. Maybe you have a
new job with new working hours. The other person wants to know what
your new hours are and
says to you something like: "what
hours do you work?"
In
Spanish, the other person could choose to be less formal and say:
¿Qué
horario de trabajo tienes?
Alternatively,
he/ she could choose to be more formal and say:
¿Qué
horario de trabajo tiene (usted)?
OUR
TIP
The question is an
invitation for you to say what your working hours are. When you say
what your working hours are, you DO NOT need to be
concerned about the level of formality in the other person's
question. Your main concern should be about saying what your working
hours are. Perhaps you want to state:
- Your working hours (general);
- Your working hours (more specific details);
Here are some
examples of how you could say what hours you work:
- Trarbajo de siete a tres (I work from 7:00 to 3:00);
- Trarbajo de las siete de la mañana a las tres de la tarde (I work from 7:00AM to 3:00PM);
- A veces trabajo los sábados de ocho a doce (sometimes I work Saturdays from 8:00 to 12:00);
- Los domingos nunca trabajo (I never work on Sundays);
Now
you should practise answering the question:
¿Qué
horario de trabajo tienes?
