What is the meaning of

Question

I am a complete newbie en español, could you tell me what the next phrase means?

pero nevar lo que se dice nevar - no

It looks like my friend's wish was to confuse me with that phrase. I understand words pero, nevar, dice, que, no. But in conjunction it is a mess to me :) - habamax, Sep 6, 2011

Answer 1

Well more context would be helpful but it could possibly mean something like "it didn't really snow like you would think of snow." If it's an idiom I don't know it.

Well, I told my friend that I am going to learn spanish in 5 months, she didn't believe me. (I have almost no grammar and vocabulary at the moment) That was her reply - habamax, Sep 6, 2011

Answer 2

Another way of saying it would be = "If you want to hear the Gods laughing tell them

of your plans ! Welcome mate , but keep your enthusiasm, and goals are great.

so does it mean that I have too optimistic plans? :) - habamax, Sep 6, 2011

It means, if you announce your plans ahead of time, they will (likely) be frustrated (by the gods.) Or, keep your plans to yourself until they are underway/accomplished. - MrSillyInc, Sep 6, 2011
