El español, como todos los idiomas tiene un montón de palabras, y cada vez aparecen nuevas para describir diferentes cosas y adaptarse a los nuevos tiempos. Muchas veces estas palabras no son las palabras típicas, o convencionales que aprendes en los libros de texto, pero son muy usadas en el día a día por los nativos. En este episodio te hablo de algunas palabras coloquiales en español que no encuentras en los libros de texto, y que además de ser muy usadas son bastante graciosas.

Después de escuchar el episodio dime:

-¿Conocías estas palabras?

What’s up everyone, in today’s episode, I’m going to focus on a game developed by Arkane Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks in 2012 called Dishonored. It’s a pretty nice action-stealth game featuring political conspiracy, vengeance story and black magic in an environment inspired by the best steampunk fictions. Enjoy.

Here is the link to the transcript (including also the game’s webpage): https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IPyCE5HZuD9F2vw3fTOzvQYDs6j1dzr_3AH_gaiItac/edit
