Talk about people staying somewhere.
The idea
Use el huésped or un huésped for a male guest and la huésped or una huésped for a female guest; the plurals are los huéspedes and las huéspedes.
Examples
- La huésped pide otra almohada.The guest asks for another pillow.
- El huésped llega después de cenar.The guest arrives after dinner.
- Los huéspedes desayunan en el jardín.The guests have breakfast in the garden.
- Una huésped dejó una nota en recepción.A guest left a note at reception.
- Cada huésped recibe una llave.Each guest receives a key.
- Las huéspedes preguntan por el horario.The guests ask about the schedule.
