When I'm talking to a Spanish speaking friend (usually over the internet) and they say "un beso" to me as a good-bye, is it rude not to say it back? I'm a native English speaker from the US, so that always catches me off guard and I never know how to respond.

Also, does this vary regionally? If so, how?

And how does it work gender-wise; like, girls say this to each other, I know, but guys don't, right? And what about between guys and girls?

And, what should I think about a Spanish speaking man who says "un besazo" instead of "un beso" to me, as a woman? Is this common for male friends to say to female friends? Or, is it a little too "friendly," if you get what I mean?

Gracias por la ayuda.

I just don't see any language jobs in usa. I majored in a foreign language and it's like I'm a useless piece of junk, ,and i don't even use the language except in my own mind. But i've talked to chinese and japanese.. they major in English and then they can have great jobs as Translators.. I never see any Translator jobs in America or in my city( Although they arre badly needed cause i see many foreign people confused in america with no help) but these asian people in asia, succeed with English as their major

Example. I speak alittle japanese, and sometimes i think about trying to go and find some job where i can use japanese. Ok but i think about it and isn't it useless being that i'm not japanese, i don't know everything as perfect as real japanese people, and there's a bunch of Japanese Americans here in California or elsewhere that know japanese like the back of their hand, 10000 times better than me.. so isn't it true that it is useless for me to try where there are already native or native-like people?
Then what about for you Americans who study say Spanish? There's a bunch of native spanish speakers in usa,,, so do you ever try to get spanish jobs? So, then, is it just useless for us Americans to attempt these kind of language related jobs? And i mean specially if you're not a professional in any other thing.

When i start speaking, they say they think i'm japanese, and they start asking if im a japanese person. But i'm not even good as say 1st generation Japanese americans..or tons of others that go to japan. I have never gone to japan, never meet any japanese people, i just talk to myself in my room to practice. Why then are they surprised to hear a very bad japanese speaker( me), when there's a bunch of foreigners who REALLY are good and fluent? Is it that some of Japanese people haven't experience foreigners who are good at japanese? In fact sometimes they tell me that they meet Americans, but that all of them have an accent. But according to them i don't. Let me tell you about my style: I know well the basics, know enough words and the things i know i speak fluently, but i'm missing so much vocab that i don't know,, and if it's starts getting into some kind of deep conversation about business, politics, literature, etc i'm like a total novice and i don't know anything..

And like one syllable. Is it simply they are easier to say? I could call you a FRIC! or a SMIL! whatever that is.. why don't they have a word like a hippomamodorcafud? or some kind of 17 letter equivalent.

I have to make a business call to a German company in Guatemala. The secretary speaks neither German nor English nor French and I don't speak Spanish. Could someone please tell me how to properly say the following sentences in Spanish: "Hello, this is Mrs. x. I'm calling from the US. I would like to speak to Mr. Y. I'm sorry, but I do not speak or understand Spanish. Thank you." Also, how do I say: "Would you please tell him that I called and that I will send him an e-mail"

I don't want to use the free translators because I tested them and sometimes you can get real garbage. Any help to say this in a professional manner would be greatly appreciated. Thank you :-)
