Burst
 
I have problems with this word especially when I want to say " de tanto comer voy a reventar" ANd also the other day I heard in an american film "I´m bursting in my pants" can anybody set different examples using the word burst, burst out, and translate the sentence I heard in the film for me. Thank you in advance.
Can we also use it in the Spanish context , I need bad to go to the bathroom, me estoy reventando.?

I'm going to burst.
I'm about to burst.
I'll burst if I eat another thing.
- All used to describe how we feel when we've eaten too much.

"Bursting to go to the loo," is used in Britain. This isn't used in America.
Here, I've sometimes heard "My teeth are floating" or "My eyes are floating," when someone's long overdue for a bathroom break.

We burst with pride, our hearts burst with joy/sadness, things can be burst (balloons, doors, packages, etc.). We can burst out laughing, or we can burst out during class (talk out of turn, yell). We can burst (explode) when we're very angry.

I believe the "bursting in one's pants" phrase you heard in the movie is descriptive of something that caused a great amount of emotion, and is most likely referencing an orgasm.

En Chile es/era muy común decir:

Estoy que reviento por lavarme las manos...:rolleyes:

Estoy que reviento de ira/furia

Si me tiras este dedito, me reviento...;)

It make me to think about the great torns in the cities, when most coming a great rain or torn, as you know the clouds set them in gray color for the water inside of themselves, therefore, you can say this, there come a burst to wind ( Ahi viene una rafaga de viento ), I'm not very sure if my translation is correct, and if it's not correct please I will be glad with you if you help me to write it good way.

A shot is like a burst too.

Here in Mexico when the drugs cartels are fighting in the street, people can say there come the burst of ballets.

I repeat this, I'm not pretty sure about my literal translation in these sentences.

get fun.

Perhaps you meant storm when you wrote torn.

HAVE fun.

Ahi viene una rafaga de viento. = Here comes a gust/burst of wind.

A burst of bullets came from the drug cartels.

'Get fun' is not English.

Torn is tornado. it's exactly the that I meant.

Rusty I'd like to know if all my text was bad written.


Thank you for your support.


Como se dice divierte en Ingles.

Rusty I'd like to know if all my text was bad written. There were several errors I didn't mark, but not everything was poorly written, no.

I already wrote the correct way to say diviértate in English. It's have fun.

It's have fun.
