Meaning of 'marica' and others
Hi.
Have run across a few words in Spanish while playing Yahoo pool. What do these mean: 1) MARICA as used in 'juega marica 700 games' 2) Have seen 'dale' a few times. Meaning? Thx. #2 could be a cuss word, just tell me and sorry if so. Bob |

dale: come on, let's go, get going, hurry up... I could also mean: give it to him/her Dale is an expression. The verb is dar, which really means "give". This thread will make things very clear. http://forum.wordreference.com/showthread.php?t=74774 |
