Nice both jokes, but only you failed you in the second joke, because I don't find sense in a stamp that goes around of the word and always stays in one place.


I believe that in that jokes the answer should to be a women.

This is a good joke in Spanish because it's a play on words. It doesn't translate into English (as a joke, that is).
Por lo general, no traducen al inglés los juegos de palabras sin perder el sentido.

I don't think agujero is the best word for a hole in the ground.
I would use hueco, zanja, foso, hoyo.
Others may correct me, but I'm almost sure that an agujero
is a pin hole.

Yes, I agree with it, but I don't find sense in the word, perhaps if the words is other word then it'll turn sound better.

I hope your commentaries.

irmamar July 25, 2009 01:55 AM

Bob, tendrías que cambiar el título del hilo. Vosotros no distinguís entre "chistes" y "bromas", todo es "joke".

Un chiste es como un cuento pequeñito que hace gracia.

Una broma es como una burla o un acto divertido (a veces). Por ejemplo, un amigo te deja un cubo de agua encima de la puerta entreabierta para que te caiga encima cuando empujes la puerta para entrar. Eso es una broma (a veces son de mal gusto...)

Y ahora un chiste:

Cómo mantener a un tonto ocupado

Cómo mantener a un tonto ocupado
(lee arriba)

bobjenkins July 25, 2009 02:09 AM

Entonces las bromas significan pranks?:)

Usually: - Normalmente:

a nose smells - un nariz olfatea :)

feet run - los pies corren :)

In this case: - En este caso:confused:

Somehow, it loses a lot in the translation!

These jokes are "funny duh"!

CrOtALiTo July 29, 2009 10:36 AM

Thank you Brute for your help.


Elaina somehow the jokes translated of any language likely loss the sense, because is as to music, when you try to translate of English to Spanish less a little of the context correct.

Then this happen like than with the jokes.

Is better understand them in the original language than other language.

Precisely. Funny duuuh!!:yuck::yuck:
Impossible to translate as a joke. Hardly worth the effort really!

irmamar July 31, 2009 01:16 AM

I think "upside down" means "boca abajo". "Boca abajo" can mean both with the face on the floor and with the head on the floor and the feet in the air (yes, a strange definition, I know ;) )

Esto tiene gracia en inglés porque las palabras tienen múltiples significados. En este caso:

to run = (pies) correr; (nariz) gotear
to smell = (pies) oler mal; (nariz) olfatear

Así que:

If your nose runs and your feet smell ... you may be upside down.
Si tu nariz gotea (corre) y tus pies huelen mal (olfatean), puede que estés boca abajo (con los pies para arriba).

CrOtALiTo August 01, 2009 03:42 PM

Thank you for the explanation.

Creo que Brute estuvo pensando en la palabra 'courir' en francés, es decir: correr. :)

En una boda:
-¿Se ha fijado en lo fea que es la novia?
-¡Oiga, pero qué dice! ¡La novia es mi hija!
-Perdone, no sabía que usted era el padre.
-¡Pero qué dice! ¡Soy su madre!
