Hola from Scotland

Hey!

I've been browsing the forums the last couple of days and joined up today as I've been debating for a long time about moving to Barcelona.
I've been to the city and fell in love with it, the country, the language, the food, everything.
I'm just starting the ball rolling right now and trying to do lots of research (and spanish lessons! I've been listening to Podcasts to try and improve my Spanish!) but its a scary thought. I'll have no ties to the UK after July so thought go for it.

Any help is appreciated and I'll be checking all the forum for tips and stories!

Hable luego! (is that right???)

That isn't said, no, and I'm not quite sure what you wanted to say.
Hasta luego = until later (see you later)

I believe that she wanted to say Hasta luego.

Because hable luego is translated as you speak later.

Ah! I understand. Thank you.
My spanish writing is extremely poor right now because I'm only learning Spanish by listening really, so I'm having to guess the spelling of words.

Thank you for the warm welcome!

Bienvenido, Plym!
Barcelona is a lovely city and I'm not surprised you fell in love with it. If you're seriously thinking of going there, you'd have to consider learning Catalán as well in the long term.

Puedes decir "Te hablo luego." o "Hablo a tu luego."? Uso "Talk to you later" en Ingles muchos vez.

Edit: Olvidé; ¡bienvenida!

"Hablo a tú luego..." NO.

Te hablo luego o, mejor, hablamos luego (o después)

Claro. Pero es mejor decir: luego hablaremos, luego hablamos, porque hablas con otra persona y la otra persona contesta, es un acto recíproco. Si dices "te hablo luego" puede resultar un poco pedante, como si sólo tú fueras a hablar. No sé si me explico. Aunque gramaticalmente es correcto.

But anyway I can use the verb speak in the phrase, although also I can use the verb talk.
