dAH-meh oon beh-soh deh dehs-peh-dee-dah. When you are parting ways with someone either permanently or temporarily Spanish has a word for the act of saying goodbye which is 'despedida.' 'Beso de despedida' is the normal way to say 'good-bye kiss.' The literal translation of it is 'kiss of good-bye.' Give me a kiss goodbye. Even if you don't know much Spanish you are probably aware that 'adiós' means 'good-bye.' However 'beso adiós' is incorrect. The translation of 'to French kiss' is 'besar con lengua.' The literal translation of that is 'to kiss with the tongue.' How about if you want to ask some one for a kiss good-bye? This is kind of a trickster. 'Beso con lengua' which means 'kiss with tongue' is the natural way of saying 'French kiss' in Spanish.' Not as elegant but much more straight forward. The literal translation of 'French kiss' is 'beso francés.' Some people may understand what you said and it's an elegant way to say it but the more common usage is a literal translation of the action itself. 'Little kiss' is translated to 'besito.' Another example of changing the meaning by modifying the end of the word is 'Besotes.' This means big kisses or big sloppy kisses similar to the English word 'smooches.' The literal translation of 'French kiss' is not used as much in Spanish. By simply modifying the last part of the word you can change the meaning.

In Spanish you don't even need two words for this. When people are learning Spanish they find out the translation of 'little' is 'pequeño.' Natural thought would assume 'little kiss' like you would use in the sentence 'give me a little kiss' would be 'beso pequeño.' This is not a common way to say that in Spanish.

Let's go into some various versions of the word 'kiss.' By changing the last part of the word you can change the meaning. Here are a couple ways to say it as a command: Kiss me. The plural form of kiss (kisses) is 'besos.' 'The kisses' in Spanish means 'los besos.' The verb for the English translation of 'to kiss' is 'besar.' I want to kiss you.
