Chicle
This is a discussion thread for the Daily Spanish Word for July 17, 2008

chicle - masculine noun (el) - gum. Look up chicle in the dictionary

Me cae mal la gente que deja chicles pegados abajo de las sillas y las mesas.
I don't like people who leave gum stuck underneath tables and chairs.

No son dichos. Se me ocurrió que serían expresiones posibles. Tienen el significado que les quieras dar.

Hola!!

Cuando una persona quiere estar muy apegado a ti también le llaman chicle....
En una revista que leí que hablaba de hombres y mujeres en términos un poco curioso, estaba escrito.....

El hombre es como el chicle, entre más lo pisotees (sp?) mas pegajoso.......

¿Qué clase de revista es esa que escribe entre más lo pisotees...?


Son expresiones vulgares:
  • Entre más lo pisotees...
  • Contra más lo pisotees...
La forma correcta es:
  • Cuanto más lo pisotees...
También se puede usar el indicativo:
  • Cuanto más lo pisoteas...

There you go using the word "vulgar"........you are too quick to use it, aren't you?

It was a magazine that was in the train station that I guess someone had left there......hey, I am not responsible for what was written there..... I agree with you that it should be "cuanto más los pisotees..." but I guess that's what the magazine was all about.......stupid stuff!
