Terms I've learned this weekend:
"Coco vacía" - literally, empty coconut; figuratively, when you expect to receive something good but there's nothing in it. (Also for when your home's been gutted.)
"Un canalla" - a degraded person, but the key here is that this is the nastiest thing one might say in *polite, political company*. There are plenty of worse words, but this one is used to accuse another public figure of being a disreputable POS without being seen as vulgar oneself. #ContextIsKey!
Thanks for sharing this. I never realized until now that the 'coco vacia' Trump was 'un canalla' until now!
😅 Great applied usage - but we also don't need to be so polite!
Would it help any if I just refer to him as an serial lying accused rapist bone spur coward and treasonous fascist wannabe dictator who is nothing more than a brainless thug punk orange dumpy gonad with bad hair and feet?
