Tobillo

This is a discussion thread for the Daily Spanish Word for October 1, 2008

tobillo - masculine noun (el) - ankle. Look up tobillo in the dictionary

Ten cuidado al brincar para no lastimar tus tobillos.
Be careful when you jump so you don't hurt your ankles.

Yes, actually I have, but I don't remember that being in there. I guess I need to pay more attention.

You might like it. I suggest you watch it in English con subtítulos en español. Si te gusta Robin Williams, te gustará. Cuidado, no es para niños.

En español creo que se llama Papá por siempre o Papá de por vida o algo así.

"Ankle biters" está común en Kentucky (USA). No es algo malo que decir. Es lo mismo que como bromear con niños.

Mrs. Doubtfire

A mis hijos les encanta esa película, y la acabamos de ver la semana pasada! Cada vez que la veo "oigo" otra expresión que se me había perdido porque Robin Williams habla con tanta rapidez.

¿Por qué dices que no es para niños?

Para dar a saber que hay palabrotas en inglés y algunas escenas ofensivas (para nuestra familia por lo menos).
