¿Existe un equivalente en español para “foo”, “bar”, “baz”? Mis propios profesores usan foo, bar, etc. y de momento no me he topado con ninguna traducción convincente. |

Are contracted pronunciations of mathematical functions common in spanish? +1. I've never heard a contracted form of the hyperbolic functions (and I've taken courses making an extensive use of them) |

Is it bad to address a young male as “señor”? In Spain the only word that I've heard for waiter is camarero. |

Translating “actually” (as in a change of mind) True, but I think that, given the situations of the original question, pensándolo mejor is the best choice. But in general, en realidad should work too. |

How should I ask someone to repeat something they've said? @Jon Ericson, I think that would be the best translation of what I explain in my answer (I'm not a native English speaker). So yes, Perdona, ¿lo puedes repetir? would be something like I'm sorry. Would you repeat that? |

Various translations of “ticket” @belisarius you're right; I was talking about what I've seen so far in Spain. |

How regional or widespread are the colloquial “pa” / “pa'” in place of “para”? Well, interesting point. It seems today you're teacher. :) |

Various translations of “ticket” @hippietrail, thanks, the word didn't come to my mind. |
