If you’re into RPS, you definitely need to know about DALE. Your ‘dale count’ will measure high the moment you strike conversation with locals.

But it’s not just DALE. Sometimes these phrases follow it to emphasize your agreement, and sometimes these phrases come up by themselves.

You can either say:

  • Dale, de una
  • Dale, a pleno
  • Dale, a full

Or:

  • De una
  • A pleno
  • A full

Very commonly, you’ll read these in Whatsapp chats.

I hope you find opportunities to apply these variations soon,
