Don Juan?

Don Juan?
 

What does it mean to be `un Don Juan´:?:

I believe that Don Juan was a person very romatic, with the girls, jejejeje, or perhaps he was a person conqueror.

Anyway, he was DON JUAN, and so, he called.

If you're a Don Juan, you're considered to be a womanizer.

What is womanizer?, Rusty.

A womanizer (un mujeriego, un jugador) is a man who flirts with all the ladies.

Un mujeriego es un hombre dado a mujeres. A veces, es un «Don Juan», un marinero con una mujer en cada puerto.

"Don JUan" is, like Rusty says, a womanizer.
It's a famous play here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Juan
saludos :D

Unas líneas del Don Juan de Zorrilla, para que os hagáis una idea.

And Don Juan has also permeated the Anglo-Saxon tradition. As you can read in Sosía's article, Lord Byron wrote a long poem based on the Spanish legend and also called Don Juan.
I want a hero: an uncommon want,
When every year and month sends forth a new one,
Till, after cloying the gazettes with cant,
The age discovers he is not the true one;
Of such as these I should not care to vaunt,
I'll therefore take our ancient friend Don Juan
-- We all have seen him, in the pantomime,
Sent to the devil somewhat ere his time.

Don Juan, In my Island, there are a lot of Don Juan, 'cause a lot of mans always they are mans that are enamoring the girls of the offices, schools in the streets, in lot of places, months ago, I read a book above the life of Don Juan, he was always a person that wrote poems, letters, he helped people poor, he fight for the right of the people, somohow he fall in loved of the a girls, for which, he wrote her a lot of love letter.

Good morning, I'm again here with us on the forums.

I hope you all are well today.

This really sounds current. Byron lives.

The Anglo-Saxon, the French, the Italian the German... (Lord Byron, Moliere, Goethe, Mozart, Wagner). Maybe there are only three Spanish myths that have permeated other cultures and have become universal: Don Quijote, Celestina y don Juan.
Don Juan is a womaniser, but in a very different way of Casanova, who really enjoys being with a woman. Don Juan never enjoys love. His conquests are the result of a bet. He's said to be homosexual and permanently unsatisfied. He's also a gambler who kills the father of his be-loved (?) Ana Ulloa, a nun he seduces as a result of one of his bets.

The original play was written by Tirso de Molina in the seventeenth century, and revisioned by José Zorrilla in the nineteenth century. Zorrillas's version is played all over Spain in the Day of All Saints.

Gracias. Muy informativo y bien escrito menos algunas pocas palabras.

Is there a female equivalent to Don Juan? Doña Juana:D:D? Doña Sol?

I'm afraid not. But there is me... I'm afraid that's as good as it gets.;)

Ahora me quedo cofundido. Ayer dijiste que era pingo (deduzco que más o menos significa bimbo).
Hoy eres mi invención "Doña Juana". ¿Cual de los dos motes te quepa mejor?:?::?::?::impatient::thinking:

They are both more or less the same... (pingo is not the same as bimbo,it refers to a somewhat "tarty" behaviour, but it's not as strong as tart, or slut). So both a pingo and a Doña Juana would play the field...
But jokes aside, I'm a really nice, sensible girl.

And innocent as Alfonso alleges? There are worse things to be accused of.

Usually the female equivalent is "Mata-Hari" or "devorahombres" (like Gemma :D)

In English we use vamp(like vampira)--both noun and verb.

Can I say to a lady hers is a kind of a tarty behaviour and hope she will go out with me for dinner? :confused:
I'm trying to improve my communication skills! :rolleyes:
