La idea de mi estar

La idea de mi estar
 
Hola ¿qué significa?

AngelicaDeAlquezar August 16, 2009 06:42 PM

Right now for me, it's almost a senseless sentence... what's the context?

bobjenkins August 16, 2009 07:04 PM

EStoy aliviado que no sea una oración comprensible.:D

Es de una canción..

Ella a lo lejos
Una luz centela (no estoy seguro de "centela"
La idea de mi estar
Quedar por la noche

I think that you wanted to mean

La idea de mi estar means To be with soul.

I'm no very sure of the I'm saying above it, but I believe that for that way going the idea, perhaps if you place more above the context maybe we'll can to express more the your doubt.:)

The idea of my being

¿Algo así?

Una luz centellea ;)

Maybe that could be a word joke (juego de palabras) and he's playing with "ser" and "estar" ("ser" as being, noun, instead of a verb). And he's changed that "ser" for "estar" with the meaning of his staying in some place. But I'm not sure at all, not even a little :D

Ugh... not a good idea trying to learn Spanish with the Gypsy Kings, and Hotel California will always be better with The Eagles. ;)

Ok, seriously: I tried to listen to the song, and I couldn't make any more sense of it than of the written lyrics. Maybe one of their problems is they aren't native Spanish speakers themselves, but I think the general meaning should be "La idea de quedarme a pasar ahí la noche", which is not a full sentence either, but at least would give the idea that he actually stayed at Hotel California. :)


@Irma: they actually pronounce "centela". :D

I think they mean lighting flash, and they pronounce the L because it may sound better in the song.

AngelicaDeAlquezar August 17, 2009 01:00 PM

También habrá que tomar en cuenta si aparte de la pronunciación de Andalucía utilizan algún dialecto específico para las canciones. :thinking:

Gracias, me he dado cuenta de que hablan raros. Siempre no suena correcto a mí, pero no pensaba que hablan muy mal español!:)

@Bob: como español puro, es horroroso, pero probablemente sea un estándar de "español gitano". :D

irmamar August 18, 2009 12:07 PM

No sabía que era Hotel California de los Gipsy. Bueno, el español que hablan es horrible, tienen una mezcla de andaluz mal hablado con no sé bien qué, supongo que francés :confused: . Está claro que el español no es su primera lengua.:eek:

He visto francés, italiano, y mal español en sus canciones! Pero él puede tocar buenísimo la guitarra:D. Pienso que su primera lengua es francés:star:
