Through My Window 3: Looking at You

Literally 'strange bug/creature'. Used affectionately or jokingly among friends rather than as a serious insult.

Vivid colloquial expression. 'Trompa' literally means an elephant's trunk, the image being someone swaying and red-faced. Common in casual speech about heavy drinking.

Vulgar but very common in casual workplace speech. Conveys being overwhelmed. The literal meaning is anatomical, but in practice it functions as an emphatic intensifier rather than an obscenity.

Primarily a strong insult for someone who has behaved badly or selfishly. Can be used affectionately in very close friendships, but context is key. Less severe than its literal anatomical meaning suggests in everyday use.

Used when someone is pressing another person with too many questions or demands, causing confusion or stress. Common in domestic speech, especially from older speakers.

Extremely frequent in everyday speech. Functions as a filler, a way to introduce a request, a mild challenge, or a moment of pause before speaking. Should not be translated literally as 'to see'.

Can mean to become romantically/sexually involved with someone ('liarse con alguien'), or more broadly to get tangled up in a complicated situation. Context distinguishes the two meanings.
