I've picked up a lot of those from Cristian and Johnny. I'll use the new ones on Alba, watch her eyes get wide, then narrow menacingly, and ask me where I learned that! I'll tell her, from Carol! And then duck. Rapidly. :: smile ::

My two favorites... I got everyone in the office saying cono this, cono that.

[Maphpseurse]

I said Coño last week and someone I worked with was married to a Mexican guy so to her it had the original connotation which refered to a woman's private parts........she told me to shut up but I just said it again

[Dreaming]

Thanks Talldrink and Quaqualita. It's nice to end the night on a funny note for a change.

[Xiciljed]

I cannot stop laughing. That is soo very true and true in a funny. Cause everytime I go those are the words and phareses I hear exactly.
I sent it to my friends and family living in DR and they thought it was great! Thanks for the laugh!!!!!!

[Gskdmidd]

Quaqualita, good job!

Whats worse is that I do and say 99% of these things - Man, I'm a TRUE Dominican! Cant excape it!

[ANCETPYNCTEXT]

Talldrink is a man????

[hojutok]

Hilarious Talldrink. That's the wonder of us and why foreigners enjoy it so. I like that handle quaqualita.

see, that's why it's so dangerous to use these words when there are other spanish speaking people around, the words can have a different meaning for them. I guess it's easier to just use it around gringos, they'd believe any explanation you give them.

[Gskdmidd]

Hilarious Talldrink. That's the wonder of us and why foreigners enjoy it so. I like that handle quaqualita.

Bob, I re-worded my sentence, I was writing as I was thinking and didnt even realize how it came out on print. what damage a mis-placed comma can do! I am a VERY DOMINICAN WOMAN - no doubt about it buddy...

[NarunapyCalry]

can't take credit for that - someone sent it to me years ago.

Every year on my aniversary of the day of my arrival in the DR I go through this list and find out that I'm getting 'more Dominican' with every year. - I'm not sure if this is good or bad.

So far, we have red flavor Frio-Frio and Jugo Tang in our fridge, our cat's name is Mishu, my daughter is afraid of "el cuco", she puts on her "poloche' and eats 'confle' in the morning , when she get sick first thing I give her is 'vivaporu', and when she comes back from her babysitter in the campo we have to tell her to stop screaming when she talks to us. I also have to admit that I use sometimes old towels as a mop, have oil lamps and elephants in my living room, and some of my pans are in the oven.
But I think that's still ok as long as my sofa isn't covered in plastic?
