"Saber de qué lado masca la iguana"
Hello all!
Can someone help me with this idiom? I heard it from a Mexican friend of mine, but I don't really understand what he meant. The complete sentence he used was something like: "Yo si sé de qué lado masca la iguana" Any idea what it means? Thanks in advance, Lexa. |

Welcome to the forums, Lexa.
"Saber de qué lado masca la iguana" is a colloquial way to say that someone is well informed about something. He could have said, "yo sí sé muy bien cómo son las cosas".
