šŸ¤Ŗ Know any Spanish puns?

Itā€™s the weekend and weā€™re feeling a bit silly.

Hola šŸ‘‹

Itā€™s the weekend and weā€™re feeling a bit silly. Hereā€™s a Spanish pun for you!

Answers:

(1) ā€œCuĆ©ntameā€ (tell me)

"CuĆ©ntame" is the imperative form of the verb "contar" in the second person (tĆŗ form) and it means "tell me".

If your first guess was "dime", this would fit in this sentence as well! ā€œDimeā€ comes from the verb "decir" which means "to say" in English. The sentence would be "Dime un chiste.", which also translates to "Tell me a joke."

Both "cuƩntame" and "dime" can be used to request someone to share information, but "cuƩntame" often carries the nuance of sharing a story or a more detailed account, whereas "dime" is a more general way to ask someone to say something.

(2) La Salsa!

Get it? Salsa šŸ’ƒ like the dance and salsa šŸ… like the sauce? Okay weā€™ll see ourselves outā€¦
