I have included some Spanish vocabulary that may be useful for anyone who is a complete beginner. They are largely everyday words that you might need to use on a visit to Mazarron. Most people in shops and restaurants do not speak English and the few words here may help. If there inaccuracies, which there most certainly will be, please forgive me. I hope it helps.
