O M G He's done it!

Question

Would this be "Por suerte de Diós lo hizo"? Gracias.

Answer 1

Well I agree, but you know Iza, that I really want to push the envelope into new territory, lo ha hecho is certainly better than lo hizo (I'm dumb lol) but What do you think about "Por suerte Diós" or "Por suerte de Diós" VS Diós mio? Dios mio is too
played out for me. If you know what i mean. Brother

It's funny you say that....I feel the same way about the expression "OMG." I agree with Silvia that "Por suerte de Diós" seems a bit different than "OMG," and I can't say that I have ever heard it used by anyone as an interjection before. Don't take my word on it though, you would probably be better served waiting on a native to chime in regarding the actual usage.

In the meantime, here are a few similar interjections that I am familiar with that you might want to consider:

?cáspita
?caramba
?válgame Dios
?cielo santo
?Dios Santo ( or Santísimo)
?Dios mío mi lindo

I agree absolutely. I see no sense in "pushing" OMG into something it does not mean. There is a literal meaning that works perfectly well, so why make something up? "Oh My God" means "Oh Dios Mío". Pure and simple. Nothing to add. - Gekkosan, JUL 19, 2010

indeed, thanks gekko and izan:) - 00494d19, JUL 19, 2010

And it would be okay with some of us (okay, me) if OMG wasn't part of the daily explicatives. - LateToDinner, JUL 23, 2010

"Por suerte de Dios" = By the grace of God or something equivalent, differs a bit. - Silvia, JUL 18, 2010

Surely por la gracia de Dios means by the grace of God? Not suerte =luck not same thing - FELIZ77, JUL 19, 2010
