What do you want?

意思

Used to ask about someone's desires or wishes.

🌍

文化背景

In Spain, '¿Qué quieres?' is very direct and common in bars. Don't be offended if a waiter uses it with you if you look young; it's a sign of a casual, friendly atmosphere. Mexicans often prefer more indirect or polite forms. Instead of a sharp '¿Qué?', they might use '¿Mande?' or '¿Qué se le ofrece?' in service contexts. The use of 'voseo' (vos) is universal. '¿Qué querés?' is the standard informal way to ask this, and using 'quieres' might actually sound strange or like a movie dub. In some regions like Medellín, people use 'usted' even with friends and family (ustedeo). You might hear '¿Qué quiere?' among close friends as a sign of local identity.

💡

Use with Infinitives

You can add any verb in its base form (infinitive) after 'quieres' to ask about actions. It's the fastest way to expand your Spanish!

⚠️

Watch your Tone

If you say this too fast or with a flat voice, it can sound like you are annoyed. Keep it melodic and friendly.

The 'Usted' Rule

When in doubt, use '¿Qué desea?' with people older than you. It's always better to be too polite than too casual.

常见问题

10 个问题

Not inherently. It depends on who you are talking to and your tone. With friends, it's perfect. With a boss, it's rude.

In Spanish, all question words (qué, quién, cómo, etc.) have accents when they are used in a question.

No, for that you must say '¿Qué quieres decir?'.

'Quieres' is for 'tú' (informal), and 'quiere' is for 'usted' (formal).

You say '¿Qué querés?'.

No, '¿Qué quieres?' only means 'What do you want?'. To say 'I love you', you say 'Te quiero'.

If the waiter is young and the place is casual, yes. If it's a nice restaurant, it's better to wait for them to ask you.

In Spain, use '¿Qué queréis?'. In Latin America, use '¿Qué quieren?'.

Yes, in the context of a question about desire, it always means 'want'.

Usually 'Quiero...' followed by a noun or a verb, or 'No sé' (I don't know).
