“Reclamo” vs. “Reclamación” @Laura Interesting, sounds wrong to you. Where do you come from? To me it sounds quite good, but I see it is a regionalism now... Have you heard reclamo used for complaints? I'll complete my answer. |

wallet: cartera vs. billetera I disagree with the falling out of use in Colombia. Maybe in some regions but not in Cali or Bogota that I know of. |

holy: santo vs. sagrado Just extrapolate the meanings that are in sagrado and not in santo and that's it. I agree with Flimzy. RAE is usually sufficient. |

Translating “actually” (as in a change of mind) @CesarGon: I see interesting. but doesn't the preposition de change the meaning of hecho on this context? Do you know if DRAE says something in this regard? |

Translating “actually” (as in a change of mind) @CesarGon I disagree with you. Do you have any sources to what you say? De hecho as actually (University of Granada) (Scroll down to the university dictionary definition) |

Translation of “thank goodness” or “whew!” Nice answer! "En el anca de un piojo" is not known in Colombia and Ecuador. Other countries I don't know. |

What's the meaning of “me choca” expression? Yes of course I know what you mean, but the site is also not about volume of questions, but quality of knowledge found here. Why come here if the knowledge can be very easily found in an accredited site? Anyway I made the question in meta I just want a discussion about it, as the site is so young I feel it important to discuss. Here is the question we would gladly hear your opinion about it!!! :) Question |

What's the meaning of “me choca” expression? I'm not sure this is a good question for the site as the answer is very easily found in google and specifically in RAE. I'll make a meta question regarding this issue. |
