LEARN SPANISH GESTURES
"Cara dura"
"He/she has got a nerve" (or more literally: "How cheeky!")
How to do it: the fingers of one hand are tapped against the cheek; palm can be facing in or out.
"Hasta aquí (de harto)"
"I've had it up to here"
How to do it: the hand is raised to the temple and then quickly jerked away upwards.
"Te voy a dar"
"I'm going to get/smack you"
How to do it: the hand is held in front of the body, palm up and pointing forward, and makes a few sharp movements from right to left.
"Qué huevon/huevona"
"He/she's so sluggish and lazy"
How to do it: the hands are lowered below the waist, slightly clenched and moved up and down as if to indicate a great burden.
