Is there a translation for “He thumbed his nose at them”? Uhm, I answered with the original context in mind which suggested a quite different thing from that given in the example. In English, can you really speak in terms of disrespect or authority for something trivial - like traffic lights? |

Origin of contigo and similar “contractions” Not worthy of its own answer but - the two first Google results for "conmigo etimología" point to the same direction: the latin form mecum. |

¿Existen las palabras «nosotras» y «vosotras»? Más que probablemente la explosión del "nosotras" tenga mucho que ver con el ascenso de la corrección política, precisamente en los últimos veinte años. |

¿Existen las palabras «nosotras» y «vosotras»? Correct. Just one thing - it's spelt váis. |

¿Existen las palabras «nosotras» y «vosotras»? Note the implicit statement: vosotras is not used at all in Latin America - ustedes is instead. |

How should I translate “table” (as in a data table)? There's an issue with the formatting of your answer - the word "blockquote" shouldn't appear. |

How should I translate “table” (as in a data table)? At least in Spain -as opposed to Latin American Spanish- cuadro is not used at all for describing a table. |
