Agujetas
 
An English friend and me were discussing how to say agujetas today. Any suggestions?:confused:

At first I thought at "shoe laces", but if you're rather referring to muscular pain, I've just found it's called Delayed-Onset Muscular Soreness (DOMS)... but I wasn't able to find if there is a more colloquial name for it. :thinking:

En España las agujetas se refieren al dolor muscular. Shoe lace se dice "cordones (de los zapatos)"

I think agujetas is "stiffness", but I don't know if there is another way of saying it.

In Mexico Agujetas are the same than cordones.

I'm not familiar with the spanish word, pero cuando tienes dalor de musculos, we say "I'm sore" or "my muscles are sore". I hope that that helps.

Thanks everybody. It seems there isn't an exact equivalent for agujetas...

Se le describe como needles.

Cuado se llena algun formulario medico, donde se pide que describa su dolor...

From what you wrote, and what Wikipedia decribed, a common term is charley horse. Sore muscles from shoveling snow or other strenuous excercise is refered to as charley horse, but if you get a charley horse, it means a muscle spasm like calambre. I don't know if this term is used in Britain.

Never heard charley horse in the UK. "Sore from doing something" I think is the general expression.

poli April 27, 2009 05:17 AM
I googled it, and they refer to charley horse as muscle spasms from over exertion or malnutrition and one other medical condition.

However, at least in the northeastern U.S., it can refer to sore muscles
Example: I lited weights last night and now I feel charley horsed.

Ah perdon. Ni siquiera lei bien! :(

En ese caso seria el dolor que se siente cuando, por ejemplo, una pierna se "duerme" y se siente ese dolor al levantarse que parecen mil agujitas pinchando...

Creo que no se como se dice eso en ingles... no me acuerdo en este momento si lo he escuchado.

Lo de charley horse (Poli), nunca lo había oído. Pero eso no quiere decir nada.;)

@Ambarina,

Right, pins and needles! Couldn't even think of it.
