tan atrevido no soi como pensas!

Question

tan atrevido no soi como pensas!

what does this mean'

Answer 1

Or maybe bad phrasing. It could mean " No soy tan atrevido como pensás" . Using "voseo" and changing the order a little bit.

Answer 2

I think that some puntuation is needed here for the best translation. I think that it is saying '¡Tan atrevido! ¡No soy como piensas!' That would mean, So bold! (as in what you have said about 'me') I am not what you think I am!

Answer 3

I have to agree with Nathaniel here, puntuacion es muy importante en entenderlo.
Paz,

Answer 5

Yeah, rearranging the words would be better, but I was thinking that someone listenning to something would be more likely to get the puntuation wrong when writing than the word order.

Answer 6

If you write the he original "Tan atrevido no soy como pensás" it still means the same as "No soy tan atrevido como pensás" but I'm not sure if it's correct to say it like that, although it wouldn't be the first time I see that kind of sentence.

Answer 7

i'm not what you think

Answer 8

Well... this is where the punctuation is really important. Because, the meaning is entirely different if someone is saying that someone else is calling them atrevido (bold/daring) and they are responding by saying that they aren't than to say that they simply aren't. One is part of a dialogue, the other can simply be a statement.

Thats right. It could have so many meanings. The following are just some that first come to my mind.

¡Tan atrevido! ¡No soy como piensas!
¿Tan atrevido? ¡No soy como piensas!
¿Tan atrevido? ¡No! ¡Soy como piensas!
¡Tan atrevido no! ¡Soy como piensas!
¡Tan atrevido no soy! Cómo piensas.........?

So yes, punctuation and context are very important.
