This isn’t really adding anything, but in Spain we have the word guiri which is like Mexico’s gringo but guiri is like 100% negative unlike gringo. It specifically refers to British tourists because they have a bad habit of acting up while on vacation, but it could be used to refer to any tourist/foreigner
- Comment on You know what would be cool? If all those (job name) simulator games could all be joined. 6 days ago:

As did the Pixel 2. Still miss the back scanner
- Comment on Hoggies 1 month ago:
Same in Spanish, but from a different root-word. Erizo del mar, which erizo is just a normal hedgehog
- Comment on unwatchable!! 2 months ago:
Tóxico is more or less analogous to toxic in English, it sounds normal to use with something like a chemical but weird with an animal
- Comment on unwatchable!! 2 months ago:
Hace un par de días teníamos esta misma discusión aquí, básicamente «poison» es si lo tocas y mueres. «Venom» es si te muerde y mueres. En español es más simple con veneno jaja
- Comment on My friend gifted me a "fighting RPG" that turned out to be something else entirely 2 months ago:
Did you play without looking at a single screenshot or even the description? It gives a pretty good idea of what its about
- Comment on Baldur's Gate 3 level editor is cracked open by modders, bringing homebrew campaigns one step closer 2 months ago:
Officially, everything is done through mod.io. so it should be? Of course a ton of people are still using Nexus which is pc only

They’re singling out a single company that makes these WiFi pod thingies

- Comment on Prison Architect 2 Has Been Delayed Indefinitely, Pre-Orders Are Being Refunded 3 months ago:
Prison Architect 1 was amazing, up until Paradox bought it. I didn’t have high hopes for PA2 (not like I was going to play it anyway) but I definitely wasn’t expecting this

A few more in case anyone is interested:
Tkm - Te quiero mucho, I love you Ntp - No te preocupes, don’t worry Tlj - Te lo juro, I swear (to you) Cdt - Cuídate, take care (of yourself) Tki - Tengo que irme, I gotta go
Snapish bases its texting slang around phonetics, instead of the English way of the first letter of the word
- Comment on Baldur's Gate expansions are Weird - Warlockracy video 6 months ago:
I’m not a huge fan of game reviews but I love Mandalore’s yearly Halloween reviews. Games like Ring, Mystery of the Droods, Anonymous Agony, and Limbo of the Lost go from trash tier to the funniest things ever with his commentary
- Comment on Ascended to Spanish 6 months ago:
Ser and estar aren’t that difficult. I mostly see people struggle with por/para or the subjunctive mood.

Well he had to cut them in half to see what they’re made of, god forbid its yttrium

Without a doubt. It is a Ubisoft game after all

In Spanish its pretty common to express time past 30 as next hour minus time left. So 8:45 can be expressed as 9 minus 15
- Comment on Prison Architect 2 - Official Announcement Trailer 10 months ago:
Can’t say I’m excited. I remember how badly they butchered the original game when they bought it, not to mention that art style isn’t great
- Comment on Kagi search engine releases a "lens" to search lemmy/kbin instances 10 months ago:
Yeah I keep hearing about how great Kagi is from lemmy but then I read that they partnered with Brave and read their response to the complaints and immediately said nope.
- Comment on A cargo plane flew 50 miles with no pilot onboard using a semi-automated system. An aviation expert says the technology could address the pilot shortage. 10 months ago:
It also depends if you go with a school or an independent instructor. I spent a good chunk of cash getting my PPL before I decided to change careers because of how expensive every step towards my ATP would be
- Comment on Original God of War trilogy remaster rumoured to be on the way 10 months ago:
Agreed. I loved FFVII’s remaster even though it completely changed so much of the story
