10 ESSENTIAL ARGENTINE HAND GESTURES - Speak like an Argentine

[@JessieLina]

Do you use your hands a lot when speaking?

As a argentine my self I use my hands a lot when I talk.

[@Majutar1]

Your examples were ok! You got it girl

[@fca003]

You forgot an important one: Touch your thumb and your index finger, put your hand in front of you like you were holding a tea cup and shake your hand up and down. That's "la posta" gesture, "la que vá".

[@anitavanasperdt115]

[@juanruiztsax]

Nice video!!!! I have a lot of memories!! The combination of the signs "what" and "money" was the best!

You even did another one without noting it. I had enough (of you or the situation) with the hand in the head.

is that gestures same with italian?

[@JessieLina]

Some are similar but they are not the same. As we say in the video, the same gesture can mean two very different things to Italians and Argentines.

En Italia el famoso 🤌🏻 es específicamente para demostrar enojo o indignación al hablar. En Argentina usamos 🤌🏻 al hablar para demostrar que no tiene sentido o es mentira lo que dice alguien, también lo usamos para demostrar confusión ante una premisa o situación. Es un ejemplo, pero lo usamos muchísimo.

re le puede decir a una amiga "ojo con este chico". yo creo todos los gestos dependen mucho de a quien se los hagas. Eso te habilita a haceros o no

It’s pretty funny that she wasn’t understanding him talking about another as having ‘big balls’ and ‘big balled’ because in Argentina and Uruguay, calling someone ‘big balled’ or ‘pelotudo’ is an insult.

[@alediaz67]

On #6, though similar to #1 meaning "what?", "what do you mean?", "I don't get you" and even "C'mon, really? are you serious" and so; #6 will mean, almost every time, to say to others like "So you are scared", or coward, you stood back, you don't have the guts, you don't dare and so, more than crowded or full, a metaphoric expression showing that someone's "ur-anus" is trembling, shivering or uncontrollable (like having diarrhea) cause being scared. That's why we use expressions like: cagón, te cagaste, se te frunció el orto o se te llenó el culo de preguntas. You're doing a good job but not that accurate. You're lacking of people +40 or +50 to really help spanish learners to get into the variations of spanish on each country. In our particular case, Argentinian spanish,though we speak spanish we have a lot of expressions that in majority came from Italy, mostly from the south (the poorer regions of Italy at the time of migration), who had so many different dialects than Spanish, with Galician, Catalan/Valencian, Basque, Aranese, and Asturleonese. With many influences from France, Wales, Portugal and others slang expressions. All this mix originated "cocoliche" and the most known "lunfardo" the tango language. This is a long subject talk about but the most of our gestures, proximity, hand communications, passion and loudness voices came from italians. collaboration
