OK, I see, thanks.
And what does "cavorting around" mean? Brincar alrededor? |

y'all
"how 'bout y'all" is widely used in the southern parts of the u.s., where
rural speech dominates everyday conversation. at the same time, it is not used in print - unless expressly to convey the vernacular of a particular region. by the way, "ain't" IS in the dictionary, contrary to the saying that i quoted above, and will be cited as a colloquialism, and as such, not the "King's English". |

¿Anda's estao? instead of ¿Dónde has estado? When I'm talking with foreigner people in Spanish, I try to speak slowly, to avoid these problems. But when I've asked an English to speak slowly, I think he didn't understand me or maybe English people don't know to speak in this way, because he's gone on speaking so fast... |
