What's the “ísimo” in the following words? @GonzaloMedina: Very interesting when it says that these forms "fuertísimo, ciertísimo" are, and I quote "equally valid and more colloquial" and about how others, like "calientísimo" even though they are frowned upon in some educated circles it is commonly used and accepted, mainly in Latin American countries. Thanks! |

What's the “ísimo” in the following words? @GonzaloMedina: It is possible that you may have made a mistake. If I look for "fuertisimo" in RAE I get these results: lema.rae.es/drae/?val=fuertisimo which include "fortísimo, ma" and "certísimo, ma". |

What's the “ísimo” in the following words? @GonzaloMedina: I do not remember about "cierto" and "caliente" but for "fuerte" I believe the correct form is "fortísimo". |

What's the “ísimo” in the following words? Corrected a minor grammar mistake (adjective ending ... lose the final vowel) instead of lost and removed double "o" from loose |

Translation: más famoso del cine @Cadenza: No, because it seems that the one who has the licence to kill is "el cine", instead of "el espía". It is a very common mistake that even native speakers do. |

¿Es correcto decir “salir afuera”? @Raykud: this link maestrosonline1.blogspot.ca/2009/06/vicios-del-lenguaje.html is quite long but if you look for the term "pleonasmo" you will see that it can be the useless repetition of a concept with synonyms. It does have some uses in literature and other contexts, even every day conversation, but it really depends on the context. Your example is one in which it should not be used. |

Equivalent of Joe in spanish? Very interesting question. Definitely Joe is short of Joseph which in Spanish is José. Could it be he just went by Joe because people just could not pronounce his name properly and it sounds more or less similar? Do you know where is your friend from? |
