“Let’s Go” is a common phrase in English which is formally used to express the desire to depart. Informally, and common among teenagers today, it is used as a term to express excitement.
How To Say Let’s Go In Spanish
In Spanish, both vamos and vámonos are used for the expression of departure. Both may be used alone or as part of a larger sentence. When vamos is used, there will typically be an “a” following it to indicate the destination, but this is not usually the case with vámonos. Here is an example of how each are used:
- Vámonos. Estoy listo. = Let’s go. I’m ready.
- Vamos a la fiesta. = Let’s go to the party.
