뜻
The action of presenting someone with a present.
문화적 배경
It is common to use 'hacer un regalo' more than 'dar un regalo'. On January 6th (Día de Reyes), children receive gifts from the Three Wise Men rather than Santa Claus. For a Quinceañera, 'dar un regalo' is a significant part of the ceremony. Guests often give jewelry or items that symbolize the girl's growth. When invited to an 'asado' (barbecue), it is customary to 'dar un regalo' in the form of wine or a dessert (like alfajores) to the host. During the month of September, Colombians celebrate 'Amor y Amistad', where they play 'Amigo Secreto' and 'dar un regalo' is the climax of the month.
Use 'Darte'
Instead of 'dar un regalo a ti', say 'darte un regalo'. It sounds much more native.
The 'Le' is Key
Don't forget the 'le'. Even if you say the name, you need the pronoun: 'Le doy un regalo a Juan'.

Diminutives
Using 'regalito' (little gift) makes the gesture sound more modest and sweet, even if the gift is large.
