    tonterías

    nonsense, silly stuff, shenanigans
    expressioncolloquial

    Derives from 'tonto' (fool) but as a noun it covers a wide range from harmless fun to foolish behavior. Context determines whether it is affectionate or critical. Used enthusiastically here to mean playful, carefree fun.

  9. 9

    limpiar el nombre

    to clear someone's name
    expression

    Fixed idiomatic phrase meaning to restore a person's reputation or prove their innocence. The literal image of 'cleaning a name' does not map onto English in the same way and can confuse learners.

    Su abogada trabajó durante meses para limpiar el nombre de su cliente.His lawyer worked for months to clear her client's name.
