This video was great, muchas gracias! I live in Jalisco over a year now. Similar to "ahorita", vendors despise to say 'no' to the customers, too. When I am looking for something, and they sold out, or don't have one, instead of "we don't have it", I often hear "We don't have one now, but we'll get tomorrow." or "come back tomorrow (or Wednesday)". Of course, I believe the word, and come back next day (or on Wednesday), chances are, 99%, they will NOT have one! Now I learned whenever they tell me that, it means 'no'. 😅

You were right he first time: it’s grammatically correct to say “Don’t take it personally.” A lot of “Americans” speak “bad English,” or incorrect English. They will say “Don’t take it personal.” The reason this is grammatically incorrevt is because “take” is a verb and not a noun, so it must be modified by an adverb (personally) rather than an adjective (personal).

@@HarshColby I agree, since expressions cannot be directly translated due to cultural behavior and views, a more colloquial and pragmatic lexical choice should replace it. Hence, "almost free" would be a more appropriate equivalent for a Native English speaker regardlees of the original syntax. Many people know the structural notion of a foreign language, nevertheless are unable to internalize it, because they still percieve language from their sole perspective. This usually happens when they learn in a contrived environment, but are oblivious to the cultural implications.

We just ignore everyone. - Tortillas with EVERYTHING (my mexican girlfriend wanted tortillas with spaghetti bolognaise) - Fireworks scare the life out of you when you're least expecting them. - Dogs have a personality change as soon as the sun goes down. - Waiters take away your plates, even if there are other people at the table eating. - Flushing toilet paper isn't allowed, so instead a tiny bin is used. and, my favourite ... - Mexican men lift their shirt up, exposing their belly when they're too hot

About "ahorita": once when I was visiting Canada, I was having lunch with some ladies from Chile. Now, I'm from California, but have some family from Mexico and I speak Mexican Spanish. So anyway, at one point I had to use the restroom, so I got up and told the ladies, "ahorita vengo", which is a very common phrase in Mexico meaning "I'll be right back". The Chilean ladies laughed (not in a mean way though) and immediately tried to correct me, saying I should have said it some other way (that I can't even remember now). I never forgot that, I realized that different Spanish speaking countries have different ways of saying some things. And I could never stop saying "ahorita vengo", it's too ingrained in me. I say the word "ahorita" a lot!
@rdc20212 жыл бұрын
Ahorita in Mexico as you said, means "I will be right back but for example in Cuba to say ahorita its like saying I am not coming back. This happened to my grandfather who is from mexico and was talking to a Cuban, the Cuban felt instulted because he thought that my grandfather had just said to him something like " im leaving and will not be back to continue this conversation or buiness we were conducting. The proper term in non mexican spanish for " I will be right back" is "Ahora vengo". Ahorita from what I understand in other spanish speaking countries means something closet to "see you later", it is vague and doesnt actually indicate when you will be back, unlike saying "see you tomorrow" or " see you friday"

I sometimes tease my wife, who is from Mexico that if she were to eat a wedge of lime, she would have to squeeze another wedge of lime juice on the first wedge just to eat it. I have never not seen somebody in Mexico not put lime juice on something. The one thing that always bothers me in Mexico is that I can never order just a beer. They always want to dip the rim of my glass in tamarind and then in chili powder. Usually, if I just want to order a glass of beer and nothing more, it is not even an option most of the time. That makes me a little sad as I'm not a big fan of tamarind.

I'm going to repeat your observation that to eat a slice of lime it is 1st necessary to squeeze lime juice on the slice. Perhaps not literally true but darn close

I got used to tamarind from living with a Mexican. I didn’t like it at first.
