Translation of Spanish Word - Pispas
I am reading a story about a penguin in a race. To win the race instead of running, the penguin jumps into the nearby river a wins the race by crossing the lake "en un pispas". I cannot seem to find a translation for this word. Any help is appreciated.

As everybody already told you it means quickly but what pispas mens it´s like a sound "pis!! pas!!! it is a way to say that one thing was done before that sound ended.
for example: man!! that guy finished the exam "en un pispas" before I even realize it

Hi. You'll find the answer on these page in the dictionary of the Real Academia Español and in Oxford Spanish Dictionary, both of which are great resources.
By the way, I found the phrase easily on Google by searching just for the phrase "un pispas" within quotation marks, but I found that the word has an accent mark on the last syllable (pispás). It's not necessary to use accent marks when searching in Google, but in some language dictionaries, you won't get results unless you use the proper accent marks, as in the RAE dictionary.

You can find many websites, including Google's own support pages, that give tips on how to effectively search to find information more easily on Google or other search engines. Just search for: tips for searcing on Google.
Here's one page with great tips. They REALLY make it much easier to find results. :)
