                                            I agree. I said "I want hand soap" instead of "I want less soup"

                                              Would you use I want so much in Spain? It seems to have been introduced so early, yet in Britain, we always say I want don't get! (I know that's terrible grammar!) but it's because we want our kids to use a more polite form of asking. Does this also apply in Spanish speaking countries?

                                              Not sure, but the Collins Spanish course teaches "Quisiera" (from Queder), translated "I would like", before introducing "I want". They says its more polite.
