@Bob: Escamas. ...And I agree: ¡Qué asco!
(By the way, a good Mexican would have said "¡Guácala!" instead)

You have to hurry up getting ready because the movie starts at 8 P.M.

If I have made any mistakes, please do not hesitate to correct me. (A weird self-referential request)
I didn't understand your commentary in the end of the post, because I don't know if you corrected me the phrase or simply the phrase lift like to as I wrote them before.

Now the word Hurry up means de prisa, then if that word means de prisa, then the phrase should to takes hurry up.

Now I will write another example using the word hurry up.

Acela. You should dressing you hurry up, because the theater shows start at 7 P.M .

I hope that my example is well wrote, because as you told me before. I used the word Hurry up.


You should correcting me hurry up, before that another people does it first than you.

Another point...

Plenty is a positive word and means smth like more than enough, but in a positive sense.

Have you got enough money? Yes, I've got plenty
Do you need any more space? No there's plenty, thanks

Your document is plenty of mistakes . Your document is full of mistakes
I thought "plenty" and "full" had the same meaning . Thanks for clarifying it.

Creo explicártelo como así

Plenty significa más o menos "enough"

Does bob study spanish enough?
(no, pero por el ejemplo él no hace.)
Yes I study enough /plenty

Do you have enough food
Yes I have enough / plenty

Is your cut full of water?

Just "hurry up" on its own is easier and correct.
