"The drop that caused the glass to overflow" or "The drop that overfilled the glass." Something close is the Spanish equivalent to "The straw that broke the camel's back."
Enjoyed the video I hope you make more about english & spanish phrases. Do you guys also say "good question" when someone asks a difficult question we can't answer?
The camel saying is based on a story of a man who is loading straw onto the back of his camel to transport the straw. He keeps adding straw onto the camel’s back. He reaches a point where he puts one last straw onto the camel’s back, and it breaks the camel’s back. Perhaps it is an Arabic tale.
@@mariaspanishteacher Its also funny how the idioms change depending on the country in Mexico we said "Te da la mano y le tomas el pie", en lugar de "te da la manno y le tomas el codo. Keep the good work :)
Hi Maria. Would you be able to videos 100% in Spanish? There are many of us wanting "comprehensible input" and I think you would be fantastic with that! Thank you.
There are a couple of English expressions that I have been wondering what the Spanish equivalents might be. One of the expressions we might use in English to indicate that someone may have gone “crazy” is to say that ”He has lost his marbles.” Another piece of advice is, “Don’t throw the baby out with the bath water.”
@ Ojalá que sí lo hagas. Tenía un libro de101 modismos españoles pero ya no lo tengo. Son muy graciosos los modismos en ese libro. Todos están ilustrados con dibujos. Un par de mis favoritos: «A otro perro con ese hueso.» Y,«Cuando las ranas críen pelo.»
No, NO, and NO... You can be a good teacher, but not a top one. Please come to Spain, first of all. Practice living, idioms, an pronouncing "Z". And then, you could be te number ONE around thousend miles, or more. Kisses and Hugs, niña. Trabaja un poco más y entonces vas a ser una muy grande
@@manuellacarte5546 thank u manuela, I specialize in latin american spanish with emphasis in colombian pronunciation, my students are expants in Colombia or want to visit latin america to live and work.

the drop that overfills the glass
The drop that overflowed the glass, I'd say.
I love these kind of expressions, they make language learning more fun.
@@mtkeg65 very happy you liked them :) Thanks for your comment
"The drop that caused the glass to overflow" or "The drop that overfilled the glass." Something close is the Spanish equivalent to "The straw that broke the camel's back."
Otro dicho en inglés "If my aunt had balls, she'd be my uncle." "Si me tía tuviera huevos, ella sería mi tío."
