:lol::lol: But even that is the same motion. You'll be suggesting coldsore next. :whistling:

No, I'm from the United States. There's no way I could mix up "saw" and "sore". Well, if I was from Boston, maybe. But nope, I'm from upstate NY.......... :)

Seesaw is one of my favourite words in English... and it's difficult to translate:you can say columpio (but then it would be the same as swing) or maybe balancín.

Really? Spanish doesn't have a name for a seesaw? Do they not have seesaws in Spanish playgrounds? Hmmm.....

¿Balancín? Something like this? :thinking:

Exactly that, Irmamar. You call it balancín then?

AngelicaDeAlquezar March 29, 2010 01:44 PM

In Mexico we call it "subeybaja" :)

Qué chulo, esa palabra también me encanta.:)

Pues no sé cómo se llama, creo que balancín (la imagen la busqué con la palabra "balancín"). :thinking: Como no me ha gustado nunca mucho, no le he dado importancia. Me gustaban más el tobogán y los columpios. :D

Yo era una cobardica, casi todo me daba miedo.... sobre todo cuando eran mis hijos los que montaban...
