I have a headache = tengo dolor de cabeza: «have» works like «tener».
J'ai mal à la tête (FR) · Estou com dor de cabeça (PT) · Ho mal di testa (IT) · Ich habe Kopfschmerzen (DE).

Your languages count: ask at home or in your community how to say it in Garífuna, Miskitu, the English of the Bay Islands or any other language you know, and add it to your glossary. Add it to «My languages» in your Passport →
