Mismo - Page 2

Ah ok of course yes! (I thought 'nos' was referring to 'we'). ¡Gracias!

In fact it will not change the situation a lot as we use the same word for leave = 'gaan' or 'vertrekken' or perhaps Irma was thinking of 'weggaan'. :)

'Wil je liever weggaan?' , 'Heb je liever dat we weggaan?'. :)
'Nos vamos' => 'We gaan weg'.

Weggaan makes the same sound as someone trying to remove a fly fom the throat!

Hmm well I am not sure it is quite as bad as all that.:) :p But this is quite a gutteral language, that's true certainly. ;)

Algunas expresiones:
Me da todo lo mismo
Es el mismísimo diablo
Más de lo mismo

Would you please give us a quick translation of those phrases? I am following the "mismo" portion of this thread with great interest. Thanks! :)

I'm guessing this might be:

¿Correcto? :)

Thanks! Those phrases sound right to me. In English, I've heard the phrase "he is the devil incarnate". But what you said sounds right.

perhaps "The Very Devil"

How 'bout "the devil himself"? :wicked:

Yes I agree, I think that' s probably the most suitable one! :D :thumbsup:

Are you using that phrase to express recognition of an individual, i.e., "speak of the devil!"

"Ser el mismo diablo" means to be very mischievous or even evil (as the devil himself).

"Speak of the devil" would be rather something like "hablando del rey de Roma (y la cabeza asoma)"

Mischievous means Daño.

I'm right in the meaning of the word?

No....

No what?


I don't understand your commentary.

daño = damage (hurt)

travieso = mischievous

(Creo que) a veces:
pícaro = mischievous

Thank you for the fast answer to my question.
