Grow up and act your age?

Question

How would i tell someone to "grow up and act your age",the translation page gives 3 different answers would it be "creces y actuar su edad"

Answer 1

Simply ¡Madura! (grow up!) will suffice. ¡Crece! also means "grow up!" but I hear it sounds a bit mean.

Act your age can be said various ways....I like "¡No te comportes como niño!" or "¡No actúes como niño!"

(The accent on actúes means it gets pronounced ack-TOO-ehs instead of ACK-twehs)

Answer 2

sigh

I have heard that before, someone said it to one of my brothers.

Answer 3

"¡Coge Capacidad!"

The other translations here are not translations at all but transliterations. In this context, "Grow Up", refers to the attitudes of the individual which need to be upgraded. In which case we should say, "¡Coge Capacidad!".

Answer 4

Crecer y actuar a su edad Here you go but who would you say this to it is kind of mean

if this is mean you don't want to hear the language in our local pub - Gez, Jun 11, 2011
