When we where kids many of us planned on leaving home when we got in an argument with mom or dad.

We thought we where big enough for this world! This Ad is the perfect example of what really happened in the moment we got to the door!

Women: Uuuu so happy, because mom would always take care of you, always, always alwa…No Juan hold on I can explain to you.

Are you there? Come on Juan don’t act like in a Soap opera. Baby

Song in the Background: “Love is like this”

Kid: I know

Song in the Background:

“It’s like touching the sky,

it’s like magic in the sky,

what else can i ask for,

I know if everything feels like a dream,

where I am always the owner.”

Kid: Mom, I am leaving home, Bye I am leaving

Kid: Would you give me a ride?

Voice Off: Happy Mothers Day – (Cellphone Company)

Illya Kuryaki & The Valderramas - A Mover el Coolo…

Mira como floweo, yo simplemente le brindo ritmo al mundo perro.
Tengo el infierno genital, y su cuerpo suda,
su transpiracion es digital, es como una pluma,
su culo brilla mas y mas me atrae con su dulzura.
Hoy en mi cuna dormida, quiero su uva.
Imagino su sabor es chocolate,
y que le gustaria que descubra la espuma de su valle.
Nos iremos lejos donde nadie vea el movimiento,
que el cielo sea el unioco testigo de este encuentro.
Hay que empezar a mover, se nos acaba la era,
la luna pronto se ira, el sol vendra con sus velas.
Terremoto que en sus ojos siento,
se traslada a su cuerpo cuando está en movimiento,
estoy volando por su jungla dorada. Grita mi alma!…
Es hora de empezar a mover.
A mover el Coolo…

Destinado a bailar ante Dios, como un rio que fluye en celo hacia vos,
nuestra vida esta unida por un cordon umbilical de ritmo,
alterando el sentido de solo estar vivo.
El hechizo corriendo por tus venas, sientes la esencia la ciencia de tus piernas,
lamela hasta que grite damela, y empieza a entender de que se trata la vida.
Su pollera explota en busca de mi sexo,
yo flotando en ella en mi mejor momento.
Me muestra su volcan, su lava, su saliva.
Me abre su puerta de entrada, no de salida.
El mundo lo empieza a mover, el cielo se empieza a caer a tus pies,
nuevamente es tiempò de empezar a brillar, otra vez grita mi alma!…
Es hora de empezar a mover
A mover el Coolo…

Girl you´re my love bouncing queen,
fuck the world, i can dream your eyes, all the way to coolo in paradise.
A mover el Coolo.

Spanish is a very diverse language and they usually have multiple words for the same thing.  The same thing happens in English, and as you may know it’s important to know all of them! As well as know in what context it’s best to use each of them!

Today we are going to go with a word that, depending on the region,  may be offensive or not.

Culo, is a word that in English means arse, ass, backside, behind, booty, bottom, bum and the list can go on. Well, in Spanish there are also different ways to call it and Culo is the most offensive one in South America, but in Spain is a proper word to use! So here is the list of the most common ways to say  Culo and how to use it.

Gluteos: It’s very formal since its refering to the actual muscle in that part of the body.

Pompis or las Pompas: It’s very common in Mexico

Trasero: It’s very general and used in every spanish speaking country.

Nalgas:  Butt cheeks but it’s still descent to use it.

Poto: Peru & Chile ( Thanks Rene Eduardo Moncayo)

Derriere: Very formal too, it’s very common on the fashion industry.

Culo: Only formal in Spain, in other parts of the world it may be consider offensive unless you speak with an spanish accent.

Phrases to use it (offensive):

Me puedes besar el culo – You can kiss my ass

Te voy a patear el culo – I am going to kick you ass

Moliendo vidrio con el culo – Smashing glass with my ass meaning; Working very hard

There you have it– all the necessary vocabulary to get by in the day-to-day conversations using the word culo in  South America and Spain!

INFORMACIÓN DE REFERENCIA

Tener + que + infinitivo:
In Spanish you use the phrase “Tener + que + infinitivo” to express obligation. It is similar to the English “I have to…” or “I must…”. In fact “Tener + que” is used more frequently than “Necesito” (I need).

For example:
Tengo que ir al baño. (I have to go to the bathroom).
Tengo que comprar ese vestido. (I have to buy that dress).

It is also used for negative as well, but is a command rather than a desire. Such as:
No tienes que tomar si manejas. (You mustn’t drink if you drive).

Making Nouns from Verbs:
There are many Verbs that you can make into a noun by adding the ending -miento to the verb root.

Check it out:
Reconocer (to recognize) → El Reconocimiento (recognition)
Calentar (to heat) → El Calentamiento (warmth)
Casarse (to marry) → El Casamiento (marriage)
Enfrentar (to confront) → El Enfrentamiento (confrontation)
Mover (to move) → El Movimiento (movement)
Nacer (to be born) → El Nacimiento (birth)

Meag, an expat blogger who moved to Rosario last year, writes about the Bueno, entonces…Learn Spanish program in her blog, A Domestic Disturbance.

I finally found Spanish class that speaks the same language I do. And by that, I mean that there’s a teacher speaking Spanish and a student ‘answering’ in English. My version of Spanish (or Castellano) is a half-in, half-out sort of deal. I’m not willing to commit to speaking completely in this god-forsaken language but I’ll throw out what I know to complete a sentence…as in “Gimme another glass of cerveza, por favor.”

So, when Bueno, entonces asked me to review their language videos I was delighted to see someone with a similar attitude struggling along! Honestly, it is helpful and I am learning but mostly it just makes me feel good about myself to know that I’m not the only loser in Argentina (no offense, David). Plus, Jimena speaks so articulately that I feel like maybe I do understand Spanish when I watch these videos.

To find the series helpful, I think you do need somewhat of a background in Spanish. My background is having started Spanish classes several times at a variety of institutions. (I can’t tell you how well I know the vocabulary for school supplies.) Going through the first week of classes, I’ve been reminded of some of the basics and now we’re pilling stuff on top. Useful stuff, like ‘Don’t bust my balls’ and ‘I’m useless.’ I was hoping that I could just watch and remember most of the new phrases – and I did for some, like the proper time to use ‘dale’ – but by the third lesson I started taking notes. It provides an opportunity for learning alongside a little sarcasm (the best medicine). And I’m learning all kinds of inappropriate vocabulary and phrases that I wouldn’t be able to ask my Spanish tutor about (without blushing). I also love that David doesn’t hold back with his frustrations about Spanish – ahhh, thank you, it IS a sexist language!

Anyway, as I said, I’ve watched a week’s worth of Bueno, entonces… – 6 classes. I’ve been having trouble finding time to watch an entire 35-40 minute episode every day so it may take me a little longer but I think a little extra time is great to actually practice using what I learn. The real test will be to see if I get a better handle on the past tenses from these videos.

I’m really excited to finish the series and it’s nice to have some control over learning (meaning I can wear pjs and I don’t have to go to class and be nice if I’m in a bad mood, etc). A lot of people seem to like it for their iPods and I would definitely have watched it while on the subway in NYC but I’m afraid I’ll get mugged if I try to do something like that in public here. I just watch in the comfort (and safety) of my home – usually while eating breakfast or ice cream.

Bueno, entonces… also has a Spanish grammar blog and teaches daily Spanish phrases on Facebook.

“Uno, dos, tres, cuatro”

If you’ve heard the oh so annoying Pitbull song, counting to cuatro is a piece of cake. Maybe even up until diez or veinte. But how about the bigger numbers?  We’re talking hundreds here.

Luckily, that’s another subject that Bueno, entonces… happens to cover in one of the 30 Spanish classes in the series.  Here’s a clip from Spanish Class #6, in which Jimena and David are having their weekly Saturday review over the phone.
