Vicente, mi hermano...
¿Que Paso? Cuanto lamento por ti. Spain has suffered a tragedy
This morning was en outstanding game. Switzerland 1, Spain 0.
Guau!! Those Chilean ladies sure must have some cojones!
Audrey, a well chosen word in spite of Vicente’s opinion. Your accent is almost perfect as well – just missed the upside-down exclamation before the word
As for the Chilean ladies, well, Chile won it's first match
For some reason, this game never caught on in the US. If it were, the US would win the Cup long ago - with all the resource available.
The sport cannot gain sufficient US network backing, along with the limitless money that comes with it, because they won’t change the rules to let advertising dictate the rythym of play. Continuous uninterrupted 45 minute segments are not acceptable to networks.
Audrey, with all due respect- No Spaniard worth his salt would say "Guau" meaning your "Wow".... We would most likely say something like "joder". But not in the sense of an exclamatory "Fu**!" but rather along the "Holy S***!" lines
Vicente, even the priests in Spain use that word.
Not in Latin America. The most likely choices I can’t use because I would be chastised by the mods - but Audrey’s choice is fine for someone not wanting a family-friendly term.
Vicente, I guess those Spaniards are just more salty than us gringos. I met a woman at a dance who called herself "Concha". I thought I must have heard it wrong, but when she wrote her phone there it was "Concha, (206)...-..
Yeah ... that’s one of those words that has
really different meanings around the countries. Conchita is a popular name in Mexico, concha is a seashell in Venezuela, and it is vulgar slang in southern South America.
