Have fun in mexican spanish

¡Diviértete! Have fun!

It’s pronounced “dee-vee-air-teh-tay“, and it’s a useful phrase to have in your arsenal, one that you can say to a friend before they leave for a night on the town or a trip to the theater.

But as in English, there are several ways to say this and we’ll take a closer look in this article.

Have Fun in Spanish

The expression “have fun” works a little differently in Spanish.

If we do a direct translation, it will look something like, tener divertido, with “tener” being the verb “to have” (divertido can also be used to mean “funny”).

But in Spanish, you don’t “have” fun the same as you do in English.

Tener implies ownership, which doesn’t really work in the Spanish language.

Instead, it makes more sense to use the imperative form of divertir which is diviértete.

In this way, it becomes an instruction.

It’s the equivalent of saying “have fun” instead of “you are having fun” or “you will have fun”.
