Understand first that there is no single way to say these phrases. And the degree of formality and politeness cannot be a guessing game on our part. So, without a little more knowledge about how formal and how polite you want to sound, we'd provide the wrong translation.
Are you certain that only silverware is being washed by her, or does she do all the dishes?

Understand second that we are not a free translation service. We are a community of Spanish learners. Those that speak Spanish as their mother tongue are here to learn English. If you're here to learn Spanish, we ask that you provide us your translation first and then we'll help you perfect it.


"Mrs. Marta" is simply a title and a first name. This would be translated as "Sra. Marta," where "Sra." is the abbreviation of "Señora."

Perdóneme = Excuse me
Por favor = Please
¿Nos hará el favor de lavar los platos ahora? = Would you please wash the dishes now?
