When Aang tries to find the north pole, he is found by the north pole instead. As they are taken there, Aang and Katara are eager to find a waterbending master, only to discover that girls are not allowed to learn waterbending.
Fixed expression meaning the effort or risk paid off. The literal words ('it was worth the pain') do not map directly to the English idiom, and the verb 'valer' in this use confuses many learners.
Extremely common filler and challenge marker. When used before a confrontation or demand, it signals 'show me' or 'go ahead then' rather than its literal meaning of 'let's see'. Sounds like 'a ber' in fast speech and is often mistaken for 'haber'.
Used to express disgust or strong disapproval. 'Porquería' literally means filth or junk, but as an exclamation it expresses that something is terrible or unjust.
Fixed reflexive phrase. 'Despejar' literally means to clear or to open up space, but 'despejarse la mente' is an idiomatic unit meaning to get mental relief or reset, often by going for a walk or doing something different.
The noun 'trato' covers both treatment and a deal/agreement depending on context. When followed by 'especial' or an adjective, it describes how someone is treated, not a deal being made.
