  Americans latching on to this, and then not batting an eye when their president acts like theres no L’s in ‘billions’.

    That’s one guy, and he isn’t exactly popular. If Sir Keith were the only one over there who talked funny, we wouldn’t clown on you guys so much.

      Popular enough to win a fucking presidential election though, twice. So how unpopular is he really?

  Españoles: “coge esa pistola”

  Argentinos/Uruguayos: 😳😏🥵

  source

  • robocall@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    My college Spanish can’t fail me… of course it just says “pick up that gun” and isn’t some sort of double entendre that I don’t understand

    source

    • diemartin@sh.itjust.works ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Your observation is correct.

      Explanation

      In Argentina/Uruguay, “coger” is slang/vulgarism for “to have sexual intercourse [with]”, while “pistola” is also slang for penis. Literally “fuck that cock” or “have sex with that penis”

    In Portuguese from Portugal, one of the words for “queue” is “bicha”,

    In Portuguese from Brasil, “bicha” is a slang word for homosexual.

    So the common Portuguese expression to tell somebody one’s going to stand on a queue - “vou para a bicha” (literally “I’m going to the queue”) - has a whole different meaning for Brasilians.

  How does a british say “bloody nose” without swearing?

  source

  • surewhynotlem@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    I think they call it a nosebleed. Or something ridiculous sounding, like an old red snooty boot.

    source

    • deHaga@feddit.uk ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      We get nosebleeds, we give bloody noses

    source
  • funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works ⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    idomatically that’s exactly how it’s used - as one would say, “right?” “okay” “eh?” “feel me?” “dig?” “am I right?” “see?” “no?” at the end of a sentence in other epochs/cultures.
