I'm trying to describe the act of curling your finger, as in the way American's motion for someone to come. I get so many different words from the translator that I'm not sure which one is best. Help! raspberry

we don't have an expression for that. good one! First it is very rude to curl your finger to somebody, not acceptable in Spanish culture. to express that I would say: Hizo seña con el dedo para que venga. or hizo señas con el dedo para que se aproxime o se acerque. smirk
