西班牙運動員近代在籃球、足球、網球、F1等主流運動都有世界級表現，或許有一天，真係有個西班牙運動員2小時內跑全馬 😆😆😆

在香港， 搭的士有時會聽到的士司機鬧另一方司機突然cut線，請問cut線是怎樣說？ You changed to my lane. Or. You cut into my lane?

[@SomeOne-cz2wt]

是超車的意思嗎？ 若果是，我查了，可用overtake🤔 E.g. The driver near my lane suddenly overtakes me. This is dangerous.

响唔 formal 嘅情况下，用英文係嚟溝通 , 理得佢文法正唔正確 , 你估老番本身 D 文法又好勁咩. 不過公事上嘅 formal correspondence ，應對上還係企理D文法適當較理想.

[@Woodland26]

Why not learn properly and get it right formal or informally?

[@tomlim1598]

@Woodland26 Just like in baseball, it's FC. As long as I can communicate with other people, proper or not be damned, what's the reward of getting it right 100% of the time. And who's there to determine what's right or wrong, YOU?????

[@Woodland26]

@@tomlim1598 I guess we share different standards.

[@LeonardYuen-l5m]

I have never heard the use of Spanish athelete in N. America. The much more common expression is "Bullsh*tter". Also these days it ain't all that politically correct using ethnic terms. Another example of ethnic expression is "Indian givers" which is rarely used these days.

[@lewistsao3279]

likewise, i've never heard of "spanish athlete", i thought it is american given melody must have spent some time in the US given her accent.
