The waiter would serve coffee to my friend and I would say y tu when I really wanted to say yo tambien. I felt like an idiot but thankfully he knew I wanted coffee as well. I sure needed it if I was confusing those simple phrases! Y tu sounds like me too so I think that is why I got them confused. Silly me.Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04300945096399594946noreply@blogger.com
