This is the name given to the drive shaft of a car or more like the shafts with C.V. joints on a front wheel drive car.

New word

bajaguy - 4-1-2006 at 10:03 PM

matamoscas????????

OK, good question,

Gypsy Jan - 4-1-2006 at 11:57 PM

but why are you tagging onto an hold post instead of posting a new one?

Matamosca - "killfly" or flyswatter.

Ohh, boy, do I use mine when the heat is up and the new hatch is buzzing around the casa.

Paula - 4-2-2006 at 08:42 AM

correcto?

Correcto is an adjective. Corregir is a verb.

En est asunto estoy correcto, y no es necesario corregirme.;)

Oso - 4-2-2006 at 07:41 PM

Funny, but misleading for some. Braulio is referring to Matamoros, Tamaulipas. across from Brownsville, TX.

bajajudy - 4-3-2006 at 05:33 PM

So what kind of mood am I in?

Su palabra del dia.

bajabound2005 - 4-3-2006 at 06:41 PM

If this is going to be a topic -- which would be great, maybe someone could just introduce a word and its meaning....and no one puts in any commentary? It makes is difficult to get through the thread with all the intejectories (spelling may not be correct there)...but love to learn new and useful words.

I "feel" a strong connection between finta and feint, although I can present no etymological evidence to that effect.

bajajudy - 4-4-2006 at 06:49 AM

Ok so nobody gives a ----what my mood means. It is a great word for someone living in Baja

Paula - 4-4-2006 at 06:54 AM

Judy, are you feeling carefree?

Paula

bajajudy - 4-4-2006 at 06:57 AM

And happy go lucky...thanks Paula

bajajudy - 4-4-2006 at 10:29 AM

:fire:
Braulio
Dont bet on that! :P

bajajudy - 4-16-2006 at 07:18 AM

Ok Lencho, I'll bite

It is important to me to be important

The point is

or

the heart of the matter is

Paula - 4-16-2006 at 07:32 AM

Well!

I couldn't care less!


(sounds like I'm being mean, but I just used my dictionary):yes:

Pompano - 4-16-2006 at 07:37 AM

Si, como no? Es bueno palabras, no?

Paula - 4-16-2006 at 07:42 AM

Thanks for that one , Lencho-- both very useful phrases!

si como no is another good one... for so long I said porque no?, which is logical but not so pretty.

Pompano - 4-16-2006 at 07:46 AM

Paula, years ago a friend called his boat 'Si, Como No?'. I thought it was very appropriate for a live-aboard in Baja...his change of lifestyle.

I am looking for a new Spanish name for another new boat...Maybe I can plagerize...Si, Como No?

Paula - 4-16-2006 at 07:48 AM

si, es posible...

Well, this came back from babelfish:

neilm - 4-16-2006 at 03:23 PM
