Es usted de lo que no hay.

No estoy segura si esto es un cumplido o un insulto.:confused::thinking:

Es usted de lo que no hay.

No estoy segura de si esto es un cumplido o un insulto.:confused::thinking:It can be both, depending on context. It's a funny expression. You are learning a lot! Alive Spanish. Where did you hear it?

Eres de lo que no hay means that you are not ordinary. You're that kind of person which is not common. That's why I said that it can be both, a compliment and an insult. It depends on intonation, intention, context, etc.

Usted es de lo que no hay, this phrase is more used, when you tell somebody, a complete, for example:

Jane

There aren't womens as you, Jane.

"There isn't anybody like you, Jane," is how we would say this. The dictionary I use says ser de lo que no hay means to be the limit. (There's nothing higher.)

Rusty, but my own phrase is like to your phrase.

There aren't womens as you.

Or, also it could be so, There ain't nobody higher to you.

There aren't, I said it, 'cause, I'm affirming, what there aren't womens like to Jane.

Then the what you said it's almost the same, only what of another mean.

Well, Jane, What do you think about it.?

And, it could be, some type of completed.

Look. The butterflies are so beautiful as your eyes.

They both look like compliments to me, Jane.

Jane
July 28, 2008, 11:26 AM
They both look like compliments to me, Jane.
They sure do, Rusty, they sure do.;)
Which is why I´m :dancingman::love:.
Nothing like a good compliment on a hot day.:D
But, how did you guess or is it that obvious?;)

Jane

Well, Jane, What do you think about it.?

And, it could be, some type of completed.

Look. The butterflies are so beautiful as your eyes.
This is difficult to understand, besides, my eyes could be like a ... for all you know.
Thanks, anyway.

Hey, Jane, What don't you understand about it.?

I told you this, your eyes are so beautiful as the butterflies.

And, I asked you, What did you think about of my last post.?

This may help:
tan ... como
= as ... as

Your eyes are as beautiful as butterflies. (There should be no the in the sentence.)

What do mean by okis, ok/okay?

July 28, 2008, 01:21 PM
David, we used these words as idioms, the words are Okis, Okay, By, Bytes, Que hongo, simon.

For example.

Can you use this word okis for say Ok, or right.

By/bye.
Okay/Ok
Simon/Yes
Que Hongo/ Hello.
Bytes/Bye, Bye.
Que pex/ How are you.

These words or phrase are very colloquials in my contry.

Hey, David que onda carnal como has estado, y que pex con la television, cuando iras, con la nena de la esquina, okis, por favor no vallas con la ruca que te cae mal.

Ha, ha, Ha, look, this means of speak in Mexico, it're very fun.

Que onda raza.

Porque me pegas bato.

A donde vas a pasear con la nenita.

Bebe/ this word is used for the guys, it meaning Girlfriend or boyfriend.

I hope my examples being of great helpfu for you speak.

I agree with Alfonso, can be both
You forgot your wallet for the 31sth time. Your friend says "eres de lo que no hay"

You find a first edition of a rare book your friend wants. Your friend says "eres de lo que no hay"
You're unique, special, not ordinary, but it's very important:
It depends on intonation, intention, context, etc

Being you, Jane, I thinks is appraise or humorous :D

PD: I didn't see it was a second page. Sorry.
