I’ve said many times that when you’re focusing on a specific dialect, it’s the small things that will get you a long way. In today’s post I want to share with you all some common expressions starting with “¡Qué…!”
On the left side column you’ll find the most generic phrase, and on the right side you’ll have the Argentinian variation. Try and incorporate them to your conversations!
| ¡Qué caro! | ¡Qué afano! |
| ¡Qué calor! | ¡Qué lorca! |
| ¡Qué frío! | ¡Qué ofri! |
| ¡Qué mala noticia! | ¡Qué bajón! |
| ¡Qué increíble! | ¡Qué bárbaro! |
| ¡Qué tonto! | ¡Qué gil! |
| ¡Qué malo! | ¡Qué guacho! |
| ¡Qué suerte! | ¡Qué culo! |
| ¡Qué mal! | ¡Qué desastre! |
