Pronunciation
/ˈmu.tʃo ˈɡus.to/
Cultural Note
Mucho gusto is more common in Latin America than in Spain, where 'encantado/a' is preferred. Unlike 'encantado,' it does not change for gender. The full form is 'mucho gusto en conocerle/conocerte.' It is always accompanied by a handshake in formal contexts.
