Hi Holly! Hello from Greece! I love your videos, your story of life fascinates me, your good energy and the fact that you always smile! Even when you talk about sad or difficult situations. Here in Greece, we love learning foreign languages, we start English at school in 3rd Grade but we also go to Private Schools at the same time to enforce our knowledge. We also learn other languages such as French, German,Spanish,etc...We are aware of the fact that Greece is a small country and our language is only spoken here ( and in Cyprus),so in order to communicate with the tourists with the rest of world in general we need to learn foreign languages. The word "toe" doesn' t exist in Greek either! And it' s such a useful word! And the word "estadounidense" existes also in Italian. They call you "statunitense/statunitensi" and not Americans. In Greece we call you Americans. I also speak Spanish, I love your videos in Spanish, your accent is so clear, you helped me keep contact with the language. Keep up the good work!

I think a crush is pretty well translated as a "flechazo". At least in Spain. The others are very good examples. But I have to say, even if it´s difficult to understand for english speakers, that spanish people can live perfectly without saying "toe" or "wave", in my opinion. Most of the times when you refer to the toe you will just say "dedo" (because it´s obvious that you are talking about feet and not hands). And nobody says "saludar con la mano", we just say "saludar". If you are at distance you will wave, if not you will say hey! or kiss, stretch hands or whatever, but you are "saludando" everytime. We definitely need a word for the others. Good video

One of my new favorites is worry. All the machine translators give preocupados, but worried and preoccupied are not the same in English. I feel like distracted is a more common synonym. Preoccupied in English is more about being detached from what's going on around you. Worry can be very engaged in what's going on around you. And, of course, worry has a very amusing etymology, which makes it closer to struggle.

Lock as a verb in Paraguayan Spanish is “llavear” if you refer to a key (cerrar con llave) and “candadear” if you refer to an actual lock (cerrar el candado). We tend to be lazy in Paraguay, so our variation of Spanish is a bit more straightforward and short in some cases 😂

Lock existe en castellano como Bloquear, ademas que la mayoría de ejemplos en frases que añade en castellano tenemos adaptaciones mas breves, como por ejemplo: "Lock the door" = "Echa la llave" ya que en el castellano dentro de un contexto se puede presuponer que la otra persona sabe de lo que hablamos, por ejemplo si estamos saliendo a la calle y no va a quedarse nadie en casa, le dices a la otra persona "echa la llave al salir"

A. Awkward puede ser incómodo (que tiene más significados) según el contexto, como el ejemplo de los tíos que estaban bailando: awkward situation -> situación incómoda. B. In a clumsy way, could be "torpe", o en expresiones o frases: poco elegante. C. "Delicado" también podría ser. Ejemplo: "you've put me in a very awkward position" Al menos así las uso yo, y quien me diga que no las puedo usar así porque "lo dice la RAE", que no responda este comentario, pls

I’ve seen “lucha” to mean “wrestle”, which I think is close to struggle, even if you’re not actually struggling with another person; metaphorically. In fact, I think I’ve seen lucha is Spanish used to describe a metaphorical struggle as well. As far as “mean” as in disrespectful, condescending, or rude: one of the first words that we learned in Spanish I in high school was “antipatico”. It’s the opposite of “sympatico” (sympathetic?) which is nice or a nice person. I always thought it was sufficient to describe “mean”.

El verbo "to lock" se puede traducir como "candar" que significa cerrar o asegurar con cerradura u otro instrumento similar. La palabrar "pocrastinate" en castellano se puede traducir por procrastinar o diferir. La palabra "awkward" puede significar "torpe, raro o embarazoso", dependiendo el contexto. La palabra "hater" es "odiador", ya que sí que existe, aunque también se puede traducir por "resentido". La palabra "mean" es "mezquino" en castellano. "Cringe" en castellano es "desagradable" o "denteroso". No se puede decir que esa palabras no tienen significado en castellano, ya que sí lo tienen. Lo correcto sería decir que en español latino no lo tienen, porque en el español de España tienen una palabra por la que traducirla.
