Following up with one of my recent posts on curse words, today I’d like to extend the family.

Sometime you know, sometime you know. When you don’t, what do you say?

You have two options:

• Cuando un argentino me habla, no tengo ni la más puta idea de lo que me dice.
• Cuando me habla un argentino, no cazo una.

‘It’s all Greek to me’ sounds a bit more naive than what this phrase contains in itself, but the idea is the same.

Good to have you here 😉

Until next time,
