Estrechar relaciones

Estrechar relaciones
 

Does this mean to improve relations or the opposite?

It means to strengthen (improve) relations. To stretch is estirar.

Thanks Rusty. I thought that's what it was, but estrecho means narrow so it confused me a little.

Estrechar also means to narrow (to make (more) narrow) or to take in (sewing).

And, strange as it may sound, if you 'narrow' someone's hand or 'narrow' them in your arms, you are shaking their hand or hugging them.

Estrecho means narrow, and the verb estrechar (to narrow) can also be thought of as "to bring closer together".

Una relación estrecha = an intimate/close relationship
Una amistad estrecha = a close/tight/intimate friendship

Then, Estrechar or tener una relacion con alguien mean Relationship, for example I wanna say, I have a relationship with her.

I've never heard of the word "narraw"

Jessica, narraw was a typo. David meant narrow.

Crotalito,
I have a relationship with her. = Tengo una relación con ella. :thumbsup:
To have a relationship with someone. = Tener una relación con alguien.

Fixed.

If you're in a narrow place, you're always improving your relation. :D
It's something more romantic that two persons in a one-person-bed? or confined in a armchair?
saludos :D
