Introduction
The Magellanic Clouds (MCs) are ideal laboratories to study H II regions, some of them with lower metallicities than those in the Milky Way. They are relatively close and it is possible to obtain high quality spectra.

Conclusions
Ø The amounts of iron depletion into dust grains in H II regions of the MCs are similar to those found in Galactic ones.
Ø When we consider the structure of temperature the Cl/O, S/O and Ne/O abundance ratios are constant with metallicity.
We present new determinations of chemical abundances of 8 H II regions in the MCs, 4 in the LMC and 4 in the SMC, using deep echelle spectra taken at the VLT. The main conclusions are:
