Hola,
Next time some tool is messing with you, diss him double with comebacks in English and in Spanish, try this:

“Tiene más punta una pelota”
TRANSLATION: Even a ball is sharper than you, aka you’re an idiot.
HOW IT WORKS: the literal translation is “[It] has more point a ball.” In Spanish, usually the pronoun is inferred. Because tiene is uniquely the 3rd person present form of the verbTENER (to have), the “it” is kind of unnecessary.
Unless, of course, you are trying to learn the language…
That’s …

Mi Familia es un Dibujo (My Family is a Cartoon) reruns are back on Channel Telefe (channel 11 on Cablevisión, and channel 123 on DirecTV).  The show is fun to watch.  It as a situation comedy with a little drama thrown in.  The basic plot-line is such:
An Argentine middle-class married couple has four children they are raising.  Two of the kids are teenagers that are going through the trials of adolescence—young love, rock-n-roll, fitting in with their peers, discovering the meaning of “responsibility.” A third child is an 8-rear-old girl who …

Hola,
Let’s be honest, when has anyone ever found themselves in a Spanish speaking city and actually needed the phrase “Donde está la biblioteca?” Right?

Wouldn’t you rather take a Spanish class that taught you something you actually WANTED to learn?
Like this funny phrase you could use to describe the relationship between Beavis and Butthead or perhaps two attached-at-the hip friends of your own:
“Estan culo y calzoncillo”
Estar is one of the verbs in Spanish that means “to be”, and estan is the verb estar conjugated for the third person …
