As a beginner in Spanish and intended immigrant into the DR, I would like to thank all contributors to this thread, especially those who add an English translation next to the Spanish original (hint :rolleyes:). There's enough to keep me occupied here for many, many months.

New one learned recently from a good friend. This guy gets me in stiches a lot:

"Cuanta carne y yo sin dientes"

(LOL) Very Dominican!!

literally: So much meat and I have no teeth.
implied: What a (voluptuous)woman and I can't get close to her.
