Gedo: I have some linguistic questions to ask, given that my English is not very good and I didn't find them in the English/Spanish dictionary.

What the following words and sentences mean?:

'bruhaha'

'break even' (when a rock band releases a record)

'bogeyman'

'clampdown'

'rock and roll over'

'flawed'


thanx in advance. I've got more questions.

"'Gash' - I believe this means vagina. Derogatory term and usually used alongside 'waste' - 'waste gash'"

Thats a grave insult to this sacred organ.. Sad

[quote="Kamal35"]Gedo: I have some linguistic questions to ask, given that my English is not very good and I didn't find them in the English/Spanish dictionary.

What the following words and sentences mean?:

'bruhaha' - A fuss, excitement - Created usually over something insignificant or strange 'Whats all the bruhaha?'

'break even' (when a rock band releases a record) - I dont know about Rock, but this means to spend as much as you are probably going to earn, no gains and no losses.

'bogeyman' - A fictional monster that hasnt been seen' yet scares children across the western world. Used to describe irrational fears.

'clampdown' - Enforcement - Usually a law - 'There has been a clampdown on drug dealing in this area'

'rock and roll over' - Need sentence, may be a pun.

'flawed' - Imperfect - 'Your argument is flawed because you have not considered the crucial points of A and B'


thanx in advance. I've got more questions.[/quote]

Some of you crack me up LOL.

Cawar, Wilkommen back ja??!

All those are common swearings in Spanish.

If you want really hard swearing, just let me know. They're really hard about Jesuchrist, his mother and the Holy Ghost...
